Boss Lady and Bits of Black

I had an office full of people today, so I wanted to make sure I was prepared for it, outfit-wise.
Boss Lady Pants to the rescue! I also wore a new-to-me designer sweater and my new Fluevogs.

  • Leather jacket - Danier Couture, consignment; last worn here in January 2022 with houndstooth and ruffles
  • Sweater - Jonathan Saunders for Escada Sport, Pre-Fall 2012, thrifted; purchased here for $10.95
  • Pants - H&M, consignment, Vancouver; last seen here in December 2022 with purple wings
  • Shoes - Classy Nora, Fluevog; purchased here on the weekend for $169.99
  • Mink coat (below) - thrifted; last worn here yesterday

More people means a busier day for me, including two tours of the office. 
I loved this pretty sweater - it's quite long, so it's tucked into my trousers. I also have a cami under it for warmth. 

I continue to love these pink satin pants. 
Such magnificent swoosh. 

Here's the sweater on its own. I love thin patterned sweaters - the quality of this one is superb.
This would look good with my white jeans too. 

Masked up. 
I felt great in this all day - pink is definitely a colour that raises my spirits. 

Outerwear.
We had snow flurries today! I managed to avoid any showers, and it didn't last long on the ground. 

Accoutrements: 
More pink. I'm absurdly fond of this so-very-80s silk scarf. 

  • Hat - Delux
  • Scarf - vintage 80s, thrifted
  • Gloves - consignment
  • Mask - by Mom

The stuff: 
These shoes were wonderful - very sturdy and comfortable for all the walking I did. I even ran an errand and wore them outside "in the wild"! I was able to show them off to some of my VPs in person and thank them for the gift card - they all approved! 

Black bling: 
Old faves. 

  • Belt - Nygard
  • Necklace - vintage 50s, Grandma J's
  • Bracelet - Alexis Bittar, consignment, Vancouver
  • Silver/onyx ring - Tocara, vintage fair
  • Silver/amethyst ring - vintage mall
  • Earrings - thrifted

I liked how the bits of black popped against the pink.

  3. It's always lovely to see your pink satin Boss Lady pants, and I can't believe how well that gorgeous jumper matches it. Loving the bits of black with your outfit, and I'm glad to hear that those fabulous new Fluevogs were not only wonderful but met with your VP's approval. We had the bosses visiting this week, and they were gushing over my outfits, like they always do. It's great to have an appreciative audience apart from one's blogging pals! xxx P.S. Not envious at all of your snow flurries ...

  4. I always love your boss lady pants - one day I will find a pair of my own! I like how well that top works with them too! I'm glad the new shoes wear well, and that you were able to show them off to the people who gave you the gift card! :)
