Animal Print-o-Rama

I was shocked when I walked out of my office building and hit the wall of heat this evening. 

I had to dash home for Book Club, so at least I didn't get sweaty on the way home. 

• Denim suit - Smashed Lemon, Dots sample; last worn here as a full suit in March with bits of white patterns
• Shirt - Essentiel Antwerp, thrifted; last seen here in January with purple and amber
• Shoes - Chloe, consignment; last worn here in April with a poufy skirt

The office was full of people with two lunch meetings. I had to leave one to go to another! 

I found myself wanting more short-sleeved light tops to layer under this cotton suit. 

I went without the jacket briefly in the morning, after my walk to work. 

It's quite the print-mix, isn't it? Snake print and leopard, together at last.

Incognito. 

Someone on the street hollered, "I love your suit!" at me, and many of my coworkers were enthusiastic.

The stuff: 

I wore these loafers in the "heel down" position all day.

• Belt - Leatherworld
• Lion buckle - Zara, thrifted (I cut the cloth belt off it)
• Cat/mirror brooch - JJ, vintage 90s, Mom's

Mixed bling: 

Kind of random. 

• Leather/multi-metal bracelet - Jenny Bird, consignment
• Eelskin/gold-tone bangle - vintage 80s, thrifted
• Wooden Klimt ring - consignment
• Silver/smoky topaz ring - Anneli Neuman, Sweden, vintage mall
• Earrings - thrifted, Seattle
• Necklace - FAC Saks Fifth Avenue Collection, thrifted, Sidney

Hot kitties: 

I found Barnabas sprawled out on the tiles last night. 

Who's under there with you, bud? It's Whateley!

Barnabas always looks at the world upside down.
