I mentioned last week about ordering a pastel blue Anne Klein suit (new, from eBay) as an inexpensive way to try the pastel trend. Angie has mentioned before that she felt light blue might work for me and it's a colour I've been curious about. I don't remember ever owning anything pastel.

The suit arrived today and I popped it on with my foxy tee and a pair of heels without any specific styling. It's got some wrinkles/folds in it from the packaging and shipping so please try and look past that.

The colour is a lovely light blue although photographs a tiny bit more lilac due to my wall colour. The fabric is lovely and substantial. The pieces would work well together as a proper suit and as separates with other items - i.e. the blazer with white jeans, pencil skirts, etc and the trousers with my laser cut hole white sweater, white leather jacket, etc.

I love the colour. I love the fit. The jacket looks slightly big from the back when undone but I don't mind that look at all - more BF style.

Unless anyone sees anything glaringly wrong - and please speak up if you do - this is a keep for me. I will also try some proper stylings on the weekend when I have time if that helps.
