I felt like I needed to go the opposite of red/pink. Grey and blue!

Yet another office-y blazer that I rarely wear. I bought this grey long-line blazer to replace one I used to have (a moth-eaten Vivienne Westwood)...and I never wear it. So guess what?? Off to Limbo it goes!
I still adore the black crinkle top, and this ultra-swooshy pleated blue leopard skirt really rang my bell.
If you didn't think it looked that swooshy, allow me to show it off.
It's massive!
Incognito.
It was a little on the chilly side today. Up-Island got snow! The stuff:
Blue bling:
I didn't do a lot of walking in the shoes, but they did look pretty peeking out from under the skirt.

I changed into walking boots when I got home and hoofed it to the Fernwood Inn where I met up with our pals for dinner before seeing the Belfry Theatre production of "Maanomaa, My Brother" (local preview here) which was very good.
The boots I bought specifically to beat them up!

I also switched from backpack to purse.
And there's the brooch I had on - I forgot to take it off my blazer lapel. - Purse - Coach, thrifted

Some of my lovely theatre people.
From left: Rosanna, Cat, Randall, Yvonne and me. I took a couple of quick pictures of Rosanna's outfit because it was so amazing.
That's a Raphael of Canada copper necklace and an Etro blazer - both thrifted!

The dress is a shoulder-padded beauty from the 80s in a dark glitter green.
You can kind of see the low V on the hips - she bought this in Sidney on our big fall shopping trip.

Cutie kittens 😍. That is one heck of a skirt (in a good way).
ReplyDeleteGood riddance to the blazer, after all, it’s grey! As for the skirt, it’s a beauty! Thoughts on next time wearing a top to bookend those fabulous blue shoes? It won’t surprise me if you’ve already worn such a combo and I’m simply not remembering. ;)
ReplyDeleteI like the polka dot stockings worn by Rosanna!
And yay for your Theatre Family! Our one local theatre mostly caters to family fare. Musicians also are featured but the music is often not to our taste.
Nice hair trim! Enjoy your shorter work week! Cheers, Laurie
You and Rosanna look fab, I love her pendant and I always admire your blue coat!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a great night out.
That last photo made me laugh, its like the saying "trying to herd cats!" xxx
This leopard maxi is amazing. You look fantastic.
ReplyDeleteRosanna also looks fabulous in her outfit!
That skirt is gorgeous and looks great with the rest of the outfit (including the bulldog clip!) I think the coat and hat give a good "Dr. Zhivago" flavour to the ensemble. (I wonder if Lara had a skirt so long that it needed a bulldog clip?)
