I hadn't planned to wear a jacket, but it seemed like it might be cold and the only thing that matched was the one from the swanky lunch.
By fluke, I hauled out my French squares top and the colour went quite well and then I added the polka dot scarf.
I wasn't sure what with the jacket being so suit-like and the skirt being so floral and un-suit-like, but there were lots of colours and textures; here's a closeup:
The skirt is nice because it has flippy walking pleats in the front which add a bit of swing and swoosh.
And it is certainly visible; Big J said he could see me from the top of the escalator when he picked me up from the station.

This outfit has a lot of lovely harmony and some lively contrast, Narda. I really like the way you mixed textures. Thanks for linking up to Visible Monday.
ReplyDeleteThanks Patti: I really wasn't sure whether it all went together or not ...
DeleteThe sweater alone is perfect with the skirt.
ReplyDeleteTerri - yes! I was amazed how it picked up the colour of the flowers
DeleteI agree with Patti and Terri. I love this summery look and your pattern-mixing. Today was warm then cool then warm then cool, so this outfit with the jacket was the perfect choice.
ReplyDeleteHey Melanie: Don't you hate it when our weather changes? At least this time I wore summery colours - usually its mostly black and then it's the "crow trudging home in bright sunlight" look.
DeleteOooh, such a pretty skirt and top. I love these colors.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa! They are an unusual mix for me - but visible.
DeleteThat scarf makes the whole outfit Narda!
ReplyDeleteHey Sheila! It's a fun scarf - sort of balloony, and goes with a lot of stuff
DeleteThanks Jill!
