I didn’t realize the background colour on these pants was navy, not black, until the 3rd or 4th time I wore them. D’oh. Now that I know, I finally paired them with the appropriate colours – burgundy and more navy (natch). Nothing fancy here, but I liked how this all came together – and my IG peeps seemed to like it too – so here we are. I’m wearing head to ankle J. Crew, with my new thrifted Stuart Weitzman pumps completing the picture. These puppies run narrow – yikes. I’m hoping they will stretch out with time.

Oh, look: here is my giant hand. Please admire mah bling:

… I am clearly not. I simply couldn’t wait another 8 months to wear this pretty Nathalie Lete frock I thrifted a few weeks ago, so … I didn’t. Layers, layers, layers (plus a ginormous scarf) and I was all set. Kudos also to Mother Nature for keeping things unseasonably warm this year.

Hey, look, I tried another Gibson tuck! This one looked better … but fell apart after about half an hour. Sigh. Progress, I guess.

I don’t even know, you guys – I think I’ve run out of post titles. Maybe outfits as well? Don’t answer that. This was my attempt to be comfy on a day when I had to go in to work, even though the office was technically closed, and deal with a rather stressful matter. Comfort was near the top of my agenda, and this thrifted linen dress is always a safe bet when it comes to that. I “elevated” it with a nifty scarf, my trusty thrifted boots, and a fancy bag – not that it really mattered. The work got done, the deadline was met, and all was well. And that’s all that matters.
