I saved my new teal suit for my last day in the office.
I struggled with editing the pictures to get the teal colour to show right - this is probably the closest. It's even more vibrant in person.
My colleagues were VERY impressed with the suit, and I felt awesome in it.
Demonstrating full slouchiness, with my hands in the trouser pockets.
I didn't wear it buttoned up aside from my walk to and from work.
It's a lot of fabric, so a little overwhelming that way, visually.
I was pleased with the overall quality.
Would 100% wear it again!
I mostly wore it open to break up all that teal and show the shades of orange in the top.
I matched the tee to the shoes, which have bits of teal in them as well.
I started to overheat - jacket OFF.
Incognito.
We had glorious sunshine all day, with temps in the low 20s. Still very windy, though - my scarf wafted around, as did my hair.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Lise!
DeleteIt looks fabulous and the orange tee shirt is the perfect colour underneath.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear what you get up to o your week off, have a blast! xxx
Your comments are always much appreciated, Vix, thank you.
DeleteGreat colors, and I love the socks!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Charlotte!
DeleteI'm finding teal a notoriously tricky colour to photograph ...
ReplyDeleteYour suit is absolutely fabulous and you couldn't have picked a better colour as its companion!
Have a fantastic week off, my friend! xxx
It's a pain! Thank you so much, Ann!
DeleteTeal = my favourite colour! The suit is gorgeous!!! You could also cosplay Ruth from Snow piercer in this suit!!
ReplyDeleteThe shoes are a wonderful match for the tee too - HOW could they have ended up in Limbo???
Thanks, Kezzie! The shoes are getting worn, but I have taken them back!
DeleteYou look fabulous and comfortable and this is - from head to toe - a perfect outfit! The teal color is rich and flattering, the shirt and shoes and - of course - the belt :-) are lively accompaniments (and the scarf too!) , and your jewelry shines and pops with just the right flair.
ReplyDeleteAmazed that you initially placed those shoes in limbo!
Here’s to a glorious long vacation!
Cheers, Laurie
I need to wear this suit again - it's been weeks! I get rash when I'm doing closet reckonings. I kept thinking about these, which is why I pulled them back from Limbo. I wish I was still on vacation!
DeletePerfect suit, I like teal a lot. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Nancy!
DeleteLovely suit and lovely colour combo!. Teal and orange rock!
