I'm home late following a company event - I planned a fun outfit as I knew I'd be seeing most of my coworkers there.
- Blouse - Miu Miu, thrifted; first worn here in October 2018 with copper
- Skirt - Banana Republic, consignment; purchased here for $28.00
- Shoes - Eject; last worn here at the end of September 2018
- Coat (below) - Auckie Sanft, vintage 50s, vintage fair; last seen here a couple of weeks ago
The question was "Who do you need to invite to all meetings with guests?" Everyone shouted "SHEILA!" Hilarious! As I am the office front desk, I have to sign in all guests - I have trained everyone to add me to their meeting invitations. I've trained them well, apparently!
Anyway, outfit stuff! Loved wearing this silk top again - it's real Miu Miu!
I loved this skirt - it was very comfy to wear all day, although it did bag out a bit after my long day.
Still not Friday?
Outerwear - sneaking in a wearing of the Fuzzy Flamingo. I knew I'd have to wear my chartreuse and pink amoeba scarf with her.
- Scarf - Smoking Lily, thrifted
I was buttoned up walking to and from work.
The stuff:
Black and white bling:
- Cuff - vintage fair
- Earrings - vintage fair
That pink and chartreuse combination is luscious! And I love the black and white and chartreuse with those amazing shoes.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Cynthia! Aren't the shoes cool?
DeleteYour top tones so well with your skirt
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rebecca!
DeleteThat's fab - I loved the chartreuse with the check, but then the pink was a great surprise.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mim! I love surprising combos!
DeleteI absolutely love the chartreuse with the pink, they are perfect together (good to see the amazing flamingo coat getting another outing, too!) xxx
ReplyDeleteI had to fit in another wearing of the Fuzzy Flamingo, Vix - it's such a wonderful coat to wear when we are having chilly days. Thanks!
DeleteWhat an interesting colour mix. I'd never have thought they'd go together but look you're the living proof! Love the Pink flamingo coat and the shoes are amazing. Who can resist a checked skirt? Not me. The Miu Miu top is very feminine and floaty such a good contrast with the bold checked skirt.
ReplyDeleteIt's almost the weekend, Sheila, just hang on in there...

Any colour will go with green - think of flowers! I love chartreuse for its versatility. thank you, Vronni!
DeleteI know...nearly there...
woww, such a fab color combo and lovely skirt!, and the pink coat actually looks fabulous with the chartreuse color!, those shoes and the matchy accessorizing totally rock!!
ReplyDeletebesos
Aren't they lovely together? Thanks so much, Monica!
Delete"Administrative Professionals' Day" makes me think of Ugly Betty- there was a whole episode about it!! Love that you were a quiz answer. Ooh, check you out with your Miu Miu!x
ReplyDeleteI must check that out, haven't seen that show! Thanks so much, Kezzie!
DeleteOh, the chartreuse and flamingo is a masterful combination! Gorgeous..
ReplyDeleteThank you! I love those colours together!
DeleteI can well imagine you were chuffed to be the answer to one of the questions! I'm sure nobody will ever forget about you when you're wearing such a fabulous outfit, either! Love the chartreuse paired with the checkers! That Miu Miu top is just wow! The icing on the cake is the Pink Flamingo worn on top! xxx
ReplyDeleteIt was such a funny moment! Thank you - I love the top, and loved the whole outfit,
DeleteBlack- white- chartreuse—- check!! I love this outfit and the pink is a beautiful accent color. I love the texture of that tony blouse. I am sure it will launder well.
ReplyDeleteThe flamingo coat always makes me smile. The strappy sandals are such fun. I wish more designers would add that platform so it wouldn’t be so hard for us women to walk !
Miu Miu is only two blocks from where I live, fun to photograph the windows!
Happy weekend,
❤️❤️

I hope it washes well - I'm always careful with silk, though. I know, more platforms for height, please! Oh, I would be in Miu Miu all the time if I lived near there!
DeleteHow nice you got lunch - my workplace doesn't acknowledge "Administrative professionals day", although when I worked for the government, and it was still "Secretary's Day", my boss got me some carnations that were dyed blue, which she thought I'd like because they were "different" (they were hideous).
ReplyDeleteThe chartreuse top and shoes are totally fab with the black and white checks. I think you could almost do any solid colour with that skirt, but this was an inspired pairing.
I told my boss to take us for lunch! It's amazing how many people don't realize how much we admins do!
DeleteThank you so much!!
Colors are so rich! That skirt looks amazing... if it only fit me.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Aw, don't be hard on yourself, hon.
DeleteGreat colour mix Sheila, a bit unexpected, but it does work so well. That pink jacket looks so snuggly warm x
ReplyDeleteI like unexpected colours! You know me. I think that may be the last wear of the Fuzzy Flamingo for this season!
