Here are a couple of outfits from earlier this week -- my first "work" week in Lithuania.

Monday -- I registered at the National Archives in the morning and had lunch and meetings with professors at the Lithuanian Institute of History (my host institution) in the afternoon. Smart casual worked well for the day -- although after I saw the photos I adjusted the bottom of the sweaters so the band of white was much thinner. I was in a monochromatic mood but did add the striped scarf for a bit of color.

Tuesday -- I had a meeting with an historian turned member of parliament so wanted to look professional. I bought this skirt at a consignment shop and had it taken in along the hips for a better fit. I got it back from the tailor just before I left on my trip so I didn't have a chance to look for the right top for it. I love the colors in the skirt. I felt very preppy with the turtlenecks but hopefully the amber necklace and the boots toned the preppiness down a bit.
(P.S. Nicole -- my socks are showing!)
