I could use a little sunshine!
A jolt of bright yellow will always make me happy.

However, we will be saying farewell to this lovely vintage wool pencil skirt after 9 years in my closet.
I have now worn it 17 times since I bought in Feb 2014 for a whopping $8.50.
Deploying my snake print bookends for an easy-peasy outfit.
Incognito.
I think I saw 5 or 6 people today - but I was still busy.
The stuff:
I was fearful that these shoes would destroy my feet, but they were great - I did a shipment of big boxes and a few flights of stairs in them.
Balls bling:
Round things.
- Lucite/silver cuff - Alexis Bittar, consignment, Vancouver
- Yellow cuff - thrifted
- Silver balls ring - Sidney
- Silver/crystal ring - Soul Flower
- Ball earrings - thrifted
How's your Monday?
Appreciating the sweet and simple ease of this outfit. Farewell yellow skirt, you had a good run!
ReplyDeleteFluevog and DVF are a made-for-each-other pairing!

DeleteI'm a bit sad about the skirt - it was such good quality - you just don't see 'em like that anymore.
Funky yet classy that's what this outfit is. Always sad to see a favourite piece go but you certainly got your money's worth. Have a good week Shazx
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Shaz! I definitely got my money's worth!
DeleteOoh, vacation time coming up, how exciting! Mine is about one and a half week away ...
ReplyDeleteI'm swooning over your snake print bookended outfit, and I love how you're wearing yellow with snake print. Not a combo I would have thought of, but it looks amazing! xxx
I'm looking forward to a break, Ann - it's been a while since I had more than an extended long weekend.
DeleteAw, thank you, my friend! I love snake print with almost any colour!
Anyone who tries to criticize you for shopping too much would be refuted by this post. Great price-per-wear stat!
ReplyDeleteNo one does, though, nor should they. It's my money and I can shop as much (or little) as I want. Thanks, Ally!
DeleteI love how you styled this yellow skirt!
ReplyDeletethanks, Ivana!
DeleteFarewell yellow skirt, it was fun whilst it lasted. You've just reminded me of a snakeskin bag I'd forgotten about, I love the stuff (terrible confession from a lifelong vegetarian!), I must dig it out and use it. xxx
ReplyDeleteYup, sad to see it go, but I really won't miss it too much - it had a good run. Get out that snakeskin bag and use it!
DeleteExcellent outfit but sad goodbye to the skirt!x
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kezzie!
