Red Lace and Bronze Pleats

Back to work! Thank goodness the August halo of vacation time is still on - I only had 110 emails to deal with! 

I picked the dragon top to style up first - it's an easy piece, and I did an easy look. 

• White shirt - Eddie Bauer, consignment; last seen here in June with a leather tie and a pop-art cardigan
• Lace top - Luna Moon, consignment, Powell River; purchased here for $18.40
• Skirt - Ralph Lauren, consignment; last worn here earlier this month for a Mom-Day
• Sneakers - Findlay, consignment; last NOT seen here early this month (the photos disappeared! it's a mystery!)

White shirt layered underneath! 

I liked how it went with the red lace top and gave me sun coverage for walking to and from work. 

The skirt was also an easy pick. 

Bronze pleats go with everything! 

Incognito. 

Whateley approved of the Movie Star Wrap. 

The stuff: 

I liked that I had flies on the scarf and bees on the shoes.

• Silk fly scarf - Smoking Lily, thrifted
• Brooch - Monet, thrifted, Sidney

I put the brooch over the top shirt button. 

Bold bling: 

The collar points are so cool. 

• Carved faux cinnabar bangle - consignment
• Sparkly bracelet - thrifted
• Wooden Klimt ring - consignment
• Amber ring - c. 1995
• Earrings - Biko, consignment
• Collar points - vintage 80s, consignment

Kitties snoozing on the deck. 

So crashed. 

Barnabas purrs as soon as he sees me. 

I can't resist petting him.
