WIW 12/17 Toned done, significantly

I have a date today, just coffee but still a date.
Wearing my H&M military blazer with gold buttons, stripey shirt from CocoLion, gold multi-necklace, True Religion dark wash skinnies, and black riding boots that were handmade in Italy but I got for 1/2 price. As about as close to modern classic as I can.

Looks great! As long as you still feel like you, just a toned down you, it's all good, right?

I'm enjoying this outfit...a lot. It's very Parisian chic. The jacket and striped top, especially, tickle my fancy. The gold necklace is a nice touch, too. Just right.

Very nice look. I find skinny jeans great for dates, since they are a look man "get" and still can be edged up, like you did here.

You look terrific, Anna! I love that military blazer!
You look polished and classic with an edge- beautiful!

Anna pulls of Parisian Chic (apparently without even trying)! Some girls have all the luck.
I'm jealous but happy for you and your date! Hope you have a great time.

YOU look perfect "toned down" and I hope your coffee date was "robust," so please do tell if you'll be having a second cup, because you look great.

Super outfit! Toned down yes, but the boots and fun necklace still have "your" style to them. Nice outfit!

Date was short but I think it went well. We're meeting for drinks after Christmas but before New Year's. He's not like the other guys I've dated in the past. But obviously that hasn't worked, so maybe this is better.

Love this outfit Anna! The gold necklace is a wonderful element with the black and white, and the jacket and boots look very true to your style. This is a fab toned down look that still looks totally like you. Glad the date went well

I missed the "toned up" version, but I LOVE this one. Very chic and stylish. I know you like to push the envelope with fashion, but you look great here as well!

I love this look on you Anna - very chic, modern, a bit edgy, and still individual. He's not gonna know what hit him! Enjoy your date.

I like this as much as everyone else does plus the stripey pocket? cupping
part of the bosom is rivetingly sexy.

Different is good. I married someone very "different," so I hope the good vibes continue for you on the second date.

Your 'toned down' is ..well, like Claire said - it's like you just put together Parisian Chic without batting a single eyelash, and it looks fabulous on you - wow!

The date sounds promising - just for the record, I somehow ended up marrying the one man who couldn't have been more 'different' than other guys I'd dated in the past.

Glad it went well. You looked great. Toned down but still very you. You have great style versatility Anna, you seem to know how to make a look work for you.
