It was hard rousing myself this morning. Did not want to go to work. Sheila grumpy!
- Sweater - Rachel Roy, consignment; last seen here in August when I also had the blues
- Pants - H&M, thrifted; last worn here in August with green while my face was frozen
- Shoes - First; last seen here in August with really wide pants
- Raincoat (below) - Thermal-Slicks, consignment; purchased here for $35.00
The pants feel good and they don't make my bum look too bad.
The stuff:
Fussy bling:
- Cuff - St. Paul's Cathedral gift shop
- Scrolly ring - made and bought in Scotland, 1996
- Shield ring - Nine West
- Lapis lazuli ring - Wendy Brandes
- Earrings - gift from Lise
No more sun. This was the view of the Castle from the stairs where I pose.
I excitedly put on my new-to-me raincoat.
I wore my hood up as it was spitting rain on the way to work, but it was all clear by the time I got home.
As I was doing my pictures this morning, I noticed something sticking out of my shopping bag from yesterday. Holy smokes, I bought a pair of shoes at the thrift store!
Aren't they cute? I'm showing you these horrid, blurry pictures so you can see how they do up around the foot and ankles. They were very tangled when I bought them.
Here's a better look.
I have seen Nanette Lepore clothes, but didn't know she had shoes.
They are called the Bitsy, and looks like they are from Dec [20]16.
And never worn!
Oh they are fun shoes, glad you can put them aside for warmer weather! :) I like your matching jumper and shoes with the printed pants too! It's summer-like here at the moment, we kinda skipped spring for a bit! But when it starts to cool off again I'll need to go shopping for more pants for work, it's a definite gap in my wardrobe!
ReplyDeleteI know, it will be so fun to unpack them in March! Thanks - I hope your summer isn't too hot! Pants are my new friend.
DeleteThose espadrilles were a great find for that price ! I did not know she made shoes either. I can already imagine Vizzini chasing you around trying to get his paws on those tassels.
ReplyDeleteI like your trouser and sweater look for the day.
I think so too - Vizzini was all over them, trying to drag them off. He is incorrigible. Thank you, hon!
DeleteGreat espadrilles - just don't wear them in the rain! I learned that the hard way...
ReplyDeleteI loved the cobalt blue shoes and jumper = they totally jazzed up the well fitting trousers. Loved the accessories, too.
There's nothing more useful than a hood on a raincoat I think.
I won't, thanks for the tip! I love the bright blues in the outfit. I know, why don't more raincoats have proper-sized hoods?
DeleteI think the espadrilles are for men. Hahaha! I didn't know she made shoes. But great find, they are sweet. I love your line, Sheila grumpy. I love the word grumpy. I must use it again, so perfect for my mood sometimes. I'm glad you made a switcheroo. Take that! you clothes. Love your raincoat.
ReplyDeleteYes, they must be men's sizing! That's it! I say "Sheila grumpy" like "Hulk smash!", heh heh. Thanks, Mel!
DeleteSheila grumpy, but also Sheila sleek today. The trousers are a great fit, beautifully emphasised by the ladylike courts (blue/purple - I can see I'll have to check now) - anyhoo, all very chic!

Aw, thank you! The blues are a true indigo blue, just a titch of purple/red tone in it.
