I got the new green moto in the Spring. It's a wildcard earthy pine green I don't usually wear. Well. Now I do! The new darker hair makes it work :)

Fab to wear Spring items in the Autumn. Double duty. 

The green wide Westbourne Ponte pants from Boden are a fortuitous perfect match. Today, I wore them together and LOVED it! As long as I add crispness to this green, I feel good in the colour. Hence the icy blue top - which matches my blue specs - and off-white belt and loafers. (NAS items this year).

I like wearing dressy flat loafers with wide pants! Relaxed Glam, to my eye. 

LOVE these pants. They feel heavenly, and are flattering and versatile. Great for travel. Got the red first - then the green. They replaced two pairs of wide pants that pilled. 

Wore this to work with a client today. Then walking Yorkies, doing errands, and everything else.

Sam and Jo wore their green collars to match!

Bad pics in the rental unit. Pic outside to see accurate colours. 

Thanks for looking. xo

One of my favourite colours :)

New linen-lyocell-cotton blend casual pants from Zara. Feel sueded. Gorgeous fabric, and I'm impressed! Summery and full length. You might need to size up. They are lower in the rise, which felt off at first - but I got over it. LOVE! They crease in that linen-cotton way,  so you've been warned. 

Wearing them now with old COS polo sweater. A fortuitous perfect match! And new NAS loafers and belt. Old Furla.

WFH, errands, and the usual doggie walking today. Plus lots of visits to remodel construction site two floors up. 

Bad pics in the rental unit. Sorry! Hopefully moving back into remodeled loft by Christmas. Can't wait...

(ETA: Here is the NAS context:)

Go Team Wear!

LOVE my new gold NAS Mary Janes. Just so pretty!!! I love pretty things :)

Worn with a new bold and unstructured shirtdress, plus10 year old orange Furla. The dress has a belt - but wore it without yesterday. 

Excuse the bad, bad pics. Probably in the rental unit till the end of the year. Remodel has been extended. 

Happy feet! xo

If I could have any casual white skirt in the world - this would be it :) 

It's long, flared, gorgeously cut, super comfy, plenty breezy, crisp, substantial, not see though, and like wearing my beloved white jeans in the form of a skirt!

I had the skirt altered, and now it fits perfectly.

Worn 5 times in a couple of weeks. LOVE this skirt! Forgot to take pics of the outfits - but remembered to take these yesterday. Errands, WFH, grocery shopping, and doggie walking.

New glitzy gold loafers are getting a workout. Very comfy, and complement most of my Summer looks. They filled a major wardrobe hole.

Excuse the bad pics - in a rental for longer. Jo in a collar to match :)

Thanks for looking. Waving at my skirt sisters! xo

This outfit is an entry for Mary Beth's "Favourites Things" challenge: 

https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....-challenge 

Worn to work with a business casual client last week - so I wore business casual too! On my feet running around shopping with a client all day. Outfit goes the distance! Very comfy. 

I'm a mood dresser who needs to mix and match as I please. (Which is why the restriction of working within a few tight capsules does not work for me). Woke up that morning and was in the mood for a creative clashing pattern mix. This is what I ended up with. 

Ralph Lauren Polo Pants: Favourite dressy white pants!

L'Agence Blouse: One of my favourite silk blouses!

Smythe Jacket: FAVOURITE BLAZER OF ALL TIME!!!

Maeve Belt: FAVOURITE WHITE BELT OF ALL TIME!!! 

Paul Green Loafers: Favourite dressy cream loafers!

Pearl Necklace: FAVOURITE!!! 

Furla: Favourite white bag! 

At least a third of my wardrobe is a favourite. My stuff makes me happy, and I'm grateful for that! :) I also have ALL TIME FAVOURITES like this blazer and white grommet belt. 

Excuse the odd photo taking area in our rented unit with bad light. It is what it is....

Thanks for the fun challenge, Mary Beth! Thanks for looking. xo

Randomly taken wherever I remembered to snap a pic, or hubs Greg did! 

Miss our loft! Hope to move back in around August when phase 1 of the remodel is complete. 

These are WIWs from the last week. Miraculously, I wasn't in white jeans daily ;)

#1 - #2 = To work with a client. Debut of the new red Mary Janes and they are GREAT! Plus demolition before heading off to my client....

#3 - #4 = A day of errands and doggie walking in an old dress, and new red Mary Janes. The flats are favourites already! 

#5 = Shocking pink denim on denim. Old items worn in a new way! Worn to a casual party, and to work with a casual client.

#6 to #10 = What I'm wearing now! WFH, errands, plus dog walking. All old items. 

#11 to #14 = Took Sam and Jo to the Pacific Ocean where they can run on a huge secluded and windy beach off leash, and have the time of their lives.  Both absolutely zonked in the car on the long drive back :) - (yes, I wear pearls to the beach).

Thanks for looking. xo

We're finally remodeling our loft, and have to move out for 4 to 5 months - with everything. We've been packing up on top of work, and everything else. Very busy bees.

My Esprit sweatshirts are AWESOME! I have the yellow too. 

Gap wide leg jeans (LOVE them, and waving to twinsie, DebbieK), white belt and oxfords, pearls, specs, styled hair, and my minimal make-up routine. This has been my packing uniform. 

Also making time for urban walks amidst the packing. We did the Cheshiahud Lake Union Loop Trail with Sam and Jo - 2.5 hrs - and highly recommend it to Seattleites! My coat and crossbody went over my packing uniform. Easy! 

Movers come tomorrow. That's WIWs from me till July. Thanks for looking. xo

Every item in this outfit apart from my red eyewear is classic. My straightened bob is classic too! 

fit & flare dress, tailored tall boots, satchel, fitted coat, moto, and denim jacket = CLASSICS 

I enjoy the classics as much as the trends :) 

I tend to like louder classics, so in a bright, bold pattern, or in crisp whites - and these days in a few earth tones too. 

Waving to Team Dark Floral Brooklyn and Suntiger - although the background of my dress is navy (not black), in which case I'm waving at Suz too! 

I've worn the version with the old red coat the most because it's Winter. I enjoy repeating outfits! 

Excuse the bad light upstairs with the full length mirror. That's why I take pics downstairs in brilliant light so that you can see colours accurately.

Thanks for looking! xo

Sporting trends with complementary classics in two similar outfits.

I'm a Trendy Classic :) 

Trends:

• Barrel jeans (ecru - not white)
• Oversized jumper 
• Oversized Aviator (7 years old, and a favourite! '80s Fabness!)
• Boxy Faux Leather Jacket (a '60s touch)
• Big Red Specs 

Classics

• Slipper flats
• Boots
• Belt 
• Furla Satchel
• Pearls 
• Innitial Necklace

Wavy bobbed hair can fit into any era and style persona. As current as it is classic. So my Hubs Greg tells me, anyway ;) 

Happy Valentine's Day, and thanks for looking. xo

I LOVE my Winter COS sweater dress! Sack silhouette, warm, long, super cosy, super comfy, and easy to style. 

Not sure what to call the colour. Not quite lime, not quite olive, not quite avocado, not quite pea soup. Maybe matcha green!

And just sour enough for my sartorial preferences with my natural honey blonde hair! Interrestingly, I would not have worn this colour as a platinum blonde.

Excuse the bad light and hazy pics. It's Winter.

The dress is a slam dunk with my tall whiskey weatherproof boots! Wearing hosiery to keep warm. 

It's a versatile frock. Here are ways I've worn it, and still want to wear it. Worn it with the bubblegum pink coat most of all.

* I bat for Team Matchy-Matchy AND Team Co-ordinate. I pander to my mood for the day. I bet you do too! 

* Worn with a variety of toppers, specs and bags. The same boots.

* I didn't think I had an oversized topper - but I do! I have an old tan Modern Retro cape that is BIG - almost 10 years old. Joke's on me ;) 

* Currently in the mood to make a statement with solids. Still love and wear patterns, of course!
