P.O.U.S. (Pants Of Unusual Size)

We have our VP in the office today and tomorrow, so I am classing it up - with that little bit of "Sheila" flair, of course.

 All classy in a red suede jacket and grey pants, with some nice stripey business going on. Nothing unusual here.

• Jacket - Holt Renfrew, vintage, thrifted; last seen here with the matching skirt in April
• Top - Cleo, thrifted; last worn here (3rd outfit) for shopping in August
• Trousers - Linda Lundstrom, Hazel's via Caro; last worn here in February with pink suede
• Shoes - Poetic Licence; last seen here almost exactly a year ago, here in December 2017, with these pants!
• Coat (below) - Danier Leather; last worn here in November

I had lots of compliments on the red jacket. It is part of a suit, including this skirt I wore last Friday - can you believe I thrifted both pieces separately, weeks apart? Such luck!

 The little stripey top is just a simple piece, but I liked how it went with the shoes.

Still all classy, but have you noticed how...voluminous...the pants are?

 Those are quite the wide legs. You could say that these pants are of unusual size, in fact!

 They have seams down the front and they an odd round cut that is tapered to the ankle.

They are high-waisted too - and they have pockets!

Outerwear - leather weather!

I can't wear a hat when I clip my hair up at the back, so I had to carry my brolly. Walking home, it was far too windy for either. Gack! Weather!

• Umbrella - Cheeky
• Fur boa - thrifted
• Gloves - Cejon, thrifted

The stuff:

 One of my favourite pairs of shoes, ever! Full of very versatile colours.

Blue bling:

The stripe in the sweater reads as very dark blue, plus there's a tiny bit of blue in the shoes. Why not do blue accessories?

• Lapis lazuli ring - Wendy Brandes
• Earrings - thrifted
