Got some work stresses going on right now and felt the need for a simple outfit today - sort of the dressier work version of jeans and a t-shirt if you will.

Started the outfit with these black trousers by Jay Manuel. They are very menswear-ish and normally I don't like these type of side pockets but because the fabric isn't stiff or heavy, they lay fairly flat. They're a little bit big so may need to buy them in a size down soon. But my black belt holds them up and they will be comfy.

To the trousers I added my silver Eileen Fisher short sleeved top. I'll be honest in that I wasn't sure about this top at first and found it a wee bit snug in the mid section - and this fabric shows every lump and bump, believe me. But between me shrinking a bit and the top stretching out a bit, we have met in a happy place I loooooooove how it's like wearing liquid. It feels so good on and now has perfect slouch.

I've added my trust black Clarks sandals for footwear (going to be in the low 20's Celcius today) and my light cream handbag. For jewelry I'm wearing my silver wedding band and a pounded silver bracelet that was a gift from hubby a few years ago.

Hope this works together - what do you think? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.
