Another round of meetings in the office today, so I decided to dazzle our guests - with sequins!
I knew that this cardigan would work well in my wardrobe. If it goes with the pink shirt, it's a winner!
- Sequined cardigan - Zara, consignment; purchased here for $69.99
- Top - Denver Hayes, consignment; last worn here in July with palazzo pants and a bustier
- Skirt - Oska, consignment; last seen here in April with my "dinosaur" bomber jacket
- Shoes - Super Fine Cardinal, Fluevog; last worn here in July with a dark floral jumpsuit
The sleeveless top kept the cardigan from being overly warm. It's still a little too summery for something this thick, but I really wanted to wear it.
I was happy that the sequins didn't snag on each other - it was also not prickly, and the pockets were a useful size, if not in a useful position for jamming one's hands into them.
Winner!
The warm tone of the skirt emphasized the gold edging on the cardigan, and pushed me towards gold accessories.
I overheated multiple times so I made sure that my non-sequins-galore outfit was also good to go.
Incognito.
I'm excited to style up this cardigan for fall - it has so much potential.
The stuff:
People love these shoes - they are very broken in now, and very comfy.
- Belt - Deborah Marinoff, Charmant, vintage 70s, thrifted
I grabbed the belt at the last minute, in the morning.
Gold bling:
- Silver/amethyst ring - vintage mall
- Gold/amethyst ring - Frances Jewelers, c. 1965, Dad's
- Collar-points - vintage, consignment
- Necklace - Givenchy, vintage 80s, vintage fair
- Clip-on crystal earrings - Weiss, vintage 50s, vintage fair
Absolutely love this outfit—100% winner.
ReplyDeleteOh no I commented early this morning, first comment and it is missing. Maybe others are missing as well. Then I deleted my next one in error. Cool skirt is what I want to say 😀 Lise
ReplyDeleteStunning outfit!
ReplyDeleteThe sequinned cardigan looks fabulous styled with the pink top,
black billowy perma-crinkled skirt and jewellery.
You wear this fabulously styled outfit beautifully!
There are many delights created by female clothes that are probably taken for granted by most cis-gender women -- such as the "rustling" of a skirt you mention here. Wearing female clothes, with their wider variety and interesting features, generates a smorgasbord of sensory pleasures. I enjoy hearing about your experiences in this regard.
