Wine Leather and Brown Paisley Bookends

What I thought was going to be a quiet day ended up being one where I was rushed off my feet. I was glad I had my armour on! 

Wearing this wonderfully rich leather skirt again - it's only been worn once and deserves to shine. 

• Silk blouse - Ralph Lauren, vintage 00, consignment; purchased here for $42.00
• Leather skirt - Tory Burch, consignment; first seen here (2nd outfit) in December 2024 (same tights!) with a wooly sweater
• Boots - Mini Babycakes, Fluevog; last worn here in March with yellow velvet
• Eclipse coat (below) - Welsh wool, vintage 1960s, consignment; last seen here in March

I bookended my recently-found brown paisley ruffled silk blouse with the perfectly matching boots.

The wine skirt toughens it up and gives it a rock and roll look, which I like. 

The skirt has nice big pockets.

"What's that crash?"

Sorry, no kitten pictures, as my time was taken up in the morning by moving some things around so that they couldn't jump on top of a shelf. Nothing was broken! 

Incognito. 

I loved wearing this gorgeous woven Welsh wool coat again. 

The stuff: 

My feet are very tired after a day of much activity. I promise more comfy shoes for tomorrow's Mom-Day Adventure, feet.
