Tunic and Teal, and Forgotten Flats

Today was a bit discombobulated - a network outage, rain, and I forgot my shoes! 
So all these shots with stylin' footwear...didn't happen.

  • Tunic - Sympli, thrifted; last worn here in July 2023 for an outdoor concert
  • Turtleneck sweater - Bellissima, thrifted; last seen here in December 2023 with embroidered velvet
  • Trousers - Jacques Vert, thrifted; last worn here in February 2023 with dragons (I let go of that kimono thing)
  • Shoes - Pegabo, thrifted; last seen here in November 2023 with lots of gold
  • Leather coat (below) - Jeno de Paris, vintage 70s, thrifted; last worn here in November 2023


 I stomped around in my brown floral Doc Martens (not tracked). 
And despite my kind colleagues' compliments, I felt off about the outfit all day. 

My mental cloud snarl persisted. While I love this long black silk tunic, I do not love the teal trousers. 
And the shoes don't feel like me anymore. 

I much preferred stomping around in my cool Docs, even if they didn't go at all with the outfit. 
At least the trousers have pockets! 

I can never go wrong in my green leather coat, though. 
You can tell it's a Monday because my eyes are barely open. 

The face of a woman about to forget to pack her shoes. 
Ah well, tomorrow is another day, and another outfit. 

Accoutrements: 
This wool scarf is also gone. These colours don't go with any of my outerwear. 

  • Hat - Delux, Saanich Fair
  • Scarf - Pierre Cardin, vintage, thrifted
  • Gloves - Parkhurst

The stuff: 
I paid $9.95 for these and this is their 8th wearing - I can totally live with that. 

Crystal bling: 
The necklace was shown off nicely - the bracelet less so, as the tunic has very long sleeves.

  • Necklace/bracelet - Swarovski, CAB's Mom
  • Earrings - thrifted, Seattle
  • Cuff - Myka, consignment
  • Fulvia ring - Wendy Brandes
  • Scarab ring - Heid Daus, vintage mall, gift from L

  1. Chuckling because I like the teal trousers but not so much the tunic! Perhaps it’s this particular combination? Maybe the trousers need a more fitted top, one with less material, as in the previous time you wore them. What is the waistband on the trousers? And I imagine the tunic with flowy bottoms or else tights, like the colorful ones you wore with them the previous time.

    Ah well, it was a Monday ;) and all will surely be more to your liking today! We went from cold and sunny to a tad warmer and overcast. Looking forward to when the sunny and warmer match up!
    Cheers, Laurie

  2. That pretty necklace really shows up against the tunic, doesn't it? Always good to see that fabulous leather coat! xxx

  3. Monday AND a network outage! No wonder you were a bit discombobulated! And my eyes looked exactly the same yesterday morning ...
    Loving the black tunic with the teal turtleneck worn underneath, and your blue Swarovski necklace is perfect with it as well. I'm green with envy whenever I lay eyes on that fabulous green leather trench of yours! xxx
