I wore it with one of those stretchy tops that look like they are made of little pyramids all joined together. These tops start off tiny - about the size of a three-year-old's shirt. This one, although new, was quite stretched out so it was only $3; I've never worn it much previously perhaps because I usually tried it with all dark colours and it just did not work.
I think the taupe cardi lightens it up though, so it looks okay. I also wore a new to me necklace that I found on the weekend. It was $5 which seemed a bit steep, but I liked the big disk thing - it reminds me of a jade necklace except that the colour's all wrong. I really should try waiting for the 50% off sales for these impulse buys, but then they wouldn't really be impulse buys would they?
It wasn't warm enough to doff the cardi until I got home, but here is what it looks like without the sweater.
I was off to visit clients again, so finished with some sturdy shoes.
I've often seen those teensy-weensy tops while out thrifting, but never bought one because I was SURE it would make me look ginormous! I see that on YOU it looks GREAT! So, maybe next time I spy one, I'll give it a whirl! btw...How do you put those colored borders around your photos?
ReplyDeleteHi Susan,
DeleteI have a couple of those stretchy tops and they look okay - they stretch a lot. I did have to sew one closed because it was button-front...
As for the borders, you have to go into the html and add some code. It's finicky though - the slightest mistake and things could not work and you are stuck.
I've got several of those stretchy tops and I like them! I also like the new necklace!
ReplyDeleteThanks Terri! The disk has some heft which I like, and is relatively neutral - I'm hoping it will go with lots of stuff.
