Chartreuse, Copper, and Touches of Turquoise

This is a repeat of an outfit I last wore two years ago! I was pawing around in my light sweaters, and remembered this outfit (here). 
Why not wear it again? No two of my outfits are ever the same - I always change some details. 


  • Linen/cotton knit top - no label, thrifted; last seen here (3rd outfit) with my blossom skirt in April for a long weekend hangout with our pals
  • Linen blend trousers - Zara, consignment; last worn here with optic chartreuse in May
  • Shoes - Vogettes Misty, Fluevog; last seen here (3rd outfit) in my first party outfit for L's birthday in June
  • Linen/cotton/silk wrap jacket (below) - Theyskens' Theory, RTW Fall 2011, thrifted; last worn here in April over a teal dress (need to wear that again!)

I laughed when I set the camera for my first shot in the morning. 
"Okay, I'm ready!"


What a funny boy you are, Whateley. 

This is how I wore it for most of the day, as I was freezing in the office in my short sleeved sweater.
I felt like I was in pajamas. 

I like this top better when it was tucked in at the front, but eh, whatever. I forgot.
I'm surrounded by cats, and it's hard to care. 

Incognito. 
The long ends of the scarf wafted around me in the breeze. Lovely. 

The stuff: 
Comfy shoes.

  • Silk scarf - Krizia, thrifted
  • Copper/enamel leaves brooch - Matisse by Renoir, vintage 60s, vintage fair

Copper and turquoise bling: 
Some of this is enamel, and at least one piece is glass. I'm not sure if any of it is real turquoise. 

  • Copper/enamel cuff - Matisse by Renoir, vintage 60s, vintage fair
  • Copper/turquoise squash blossom cuff - Bell Trading Co., consignment
  • Copper/turquoise oval brooch - Bell Trading Co., vintage 60s, thrifted
  • Tiny copper/turquoise ring - vintage 50s, Grandma J's
  • Copper ball ring - consignment
  • Copper/glass ring - consignment
  • Copper/enamel earrings - Matisse by Renoir, vintage 60s, Grandma J's
  • Copper/turquoise necklace - Bell Trading Co., consignment (twin to Vix's)

Box cats!
Someone (Barnabas) likes to bite the edges. 

They were bounding around. 
Thanks for posing!
