What have I been up to? Well, last Monday, I attended another council meeting; Wednesday I went to get a bone scan and at home, we are trying unsuccessfully to get the house in order after moving the older son downstairs.
We have some wonderful late summer weather - it was a nice 23 C degrees - any more than that and it tends to get sticky and unpleasant.
Today's outfit is my usual look, but sans scarf - it's my "work" look - a skirt, top and jacket. Although it's sunny out, I'm starting to think autumn and wore darker tights.
I quite like this colour - it's sable and I think it would go well with all that burgundy that we are supposed to be seeing for fall.
The thrifty item from this outfit is the ruffled tank which I found at the Dollar Store. Just the thing to wear under open v-necks.
I am still quite happy with the comfy, easy-on tube-waist skirts, although I am more comfortable with a jacket worn over top.
Today I wore:
ruffled tank ... dollar store
vneck sheer print blouse ... cleo
dark green suedey zip jacket ... tradition
tube waist skirt ... jessica
sable tights ... secret
shoes ... privo by clarks

You look great! The weather is funny - sometimes it feels like summer, and then, boom, the sun sets like a typical autumn day. I love the sable colour.
ReplyDeleteThanks Melanie! I am starting to like the sable colour too - it looks versatile - time will tell.
DeleteYou look great in this grey! And I think the tube skirt is perfect with the blouse. The waistband is very slimming! What is council? Tribal council? Good luck with the foot issue. I hope it's something that can be easily taken care of!
ReplyDeleteThanks Susan - I'm hoping the foot thing will fix my "cannot wear heels" problem - or as it is now - cannot wear flats either!
DeleteTribal Council yes! no, the council meeting is for my work - I'm an executive councillor for the union - it's sort of a glorified job steward role - we attend budget meetings and the like.
Thanks Jill - the jacket is that made of that nice suedey stuff - no idea what it's called.
ReplyDeleteThe khaki colour is really great on you! I love your blouse, it's such a lovely pattern, and the jacket - with the different texture. Very nice outfit indeed! And lovely dog of course!
ReplyDeleteI bought the blouse just because of the print during my green-buying spree...
