When I did my outfit planning last night, I had this all ready to go for today's work day, followed by a concert later in Sidney.
The concert is tomorrow. Sigh. I'm sure I'll be able to come up with something else!
- Denim suit - Smashed Lemon; last worn here as a full suit in January for Mom-Day at Blenkinsop Lake
- Sweater - Scotch & Soda by Maison Scotch, consignment; last seen here in October 2025 to see Sarah McLachlan in concert
- Booties - Matisse, thrifted; last worn here in February with black and brown
- Sleeveless coat - Only, thrifted; last seen here on Friday
Why I look shocked in the Stair Pic:
That's RAIN. I walked to work in that.
I remind myself that it's just water.
It was very warm and the cotton sweater was too much on the way home.
I always love wearing this suit - it's denim, 100% cotton.
Excellent pockets! I liked the two patterns of black and white with it.
Barnabas was lurking around and meowing while I did my pics.
I tucked all my hair into my beret to keep it dry on the way to work - it was the only part of me that arrived not soaking wet at the office 20 minutes later. Everything was dry by the time I left work and the ground was dry - it's that warm!
Barnabas always does this stretch when he wants to cuddle.
The stuff:
Of course I carried these booties to work in a bag.
- Wool beret - Parkhurst, consignment
- Snake brooch - thrifted
- Studded leather gloves - Danier Leather
Silver bling:
All favourites. I had an umbrella...on my lapel!
- Leather belt - Madewell, consignment
- Studded cuff - c. 1998
- Leather cuff - Guess, thrifted
- Silver chain ring - Mexican, consignment
- Loopy silver ring - consignment, Sidney
- Anneke & Lars silver ring - vintage mall
- Silver/obsidian ring - consignment
- Silver earrings - Israeli, consignment
- Umbrella brooch - vintage 20s/30s, vintage mall
Whateley was waiting for me while I got my coat on this morning.
"You should stay home."
I wish I could, buddy!
Our ritual Look Out the Window interlude when I get home.
They smell, look around and listen to the 'hood, and I check Merlin for birds (hummingbirds and finches today).
Such focus.
I'll be back on Friday with Mom-Day, plus our concert.
