Creepy Crawlies Layered

I've got to write and dash off to Book Club, so let's go! 

I layered a skirt under this dress! I felt clever. 

• Dress - Just Cavalli by Roberto Cavalli, consignment; last worn here (2nd outfit) in September 2025 for brunch with L
• Skirt - Spanner, vintage 90s, thrifted; first seen here in October 2025 to see a concert
• Boots - Matisse, consignment; last worn here in February with safety pins and leopard
• Leather trenchcoat (below) - vintage 70s, thrifted; last seen here a few weeks ago

It was too chilly today to wear this dress on its own. 

I love the desert-themed creepy crawlies all over it, and I hadn't worn it yet this season. What to do?

This straight knit skirt changed up the proportions. It's kind of a 1920s vibe, right? 

"I'm stretchy!"

Let's not ignore the panther in the room...

What a cuddly boy! 

"I see people!"

Sure, buddy. 

Incognito.

Leather weather! I'm ready for it all. 

The stuff: 

I walked to and from work in these boots - that's still a very comfy heel for me - and I'll be walking to and from Book Club tonight. 

• Crochet collar - made by me from thrifted vintage wool
• Gloves - Parkhurst

Minimal bling: 

This is the inaugural wearing of the new-to-me earrings - they were not overly heavy. I could feel them swinging, but didn't feel like my EARS were swinging.

• Bakelite bangle - consignment, Sidney
• Eelskin bird bracelet - consignment
• Silver/smoky topaz ring - Anneli Neumann, Sweden, vintage mall
• Stone ring - thrifted
• Bronze ring - P. Sarpaneva, vintage 70s, vintage expo

And I'm off!
