First it was a business trip, then I got sick (I blame the planes and airports) so it has been quite a while since I posted my last WIW. I was more or less back to normal last week so I managed to take pictures again and also trying to be more active on the forum.

pic 1 Homage to Angie's outfit post and Feeling Fab in White post
Ever since I bought these cream BR skinnies in December I wanted to pair them with my black riding boots but something hold me back. After seeing Angie's outfit I took the plunge!
I think I am warming back to scarves especially when I do not wear an exposed belt in the outfit. Somehow this silk black / white scarf just felt right here to add interest to otherwise very simple and even severe outfit in black and white.

pic 2 De-bombshelling the pencil
This boxy turtleneck in ink is too short to wear with skinnies (at least for my eye) but I think it is the right length for skirts. I wish I have more refined black booties for this outfit but so far my search for them was futile

pic 3 Not so trendy
I guess tunic over skinnies is not a trendy look any more but I still sport it at least once a week because it is a flattering formula for my pearish bottom part and because it pairs well with tall winter boots. I usually pair this Missoni (for Target) tunic with black or grey top but this time I decided to cheer myself with a bit of yellow.

pic 4 Inpired by midi skirt post
I really enjoyed Angie's midi skirt review from the fashion week, got inspired and tried to recreate this pin with what I had on hand. This midi fit and flare dress has the neckline which is too deep and wide for my liking so I always ned to layer over it. I bought this cropped camel blazer 2.5 years ago but somehow it does not get worn very often so it is almost an orphan now. I also think I need to get a low contrast belt for this dress for a more streamlined effect. I thought it looked good but now looking at the picture I am not so sure...

pic 5-6 Unorthodox cobalt on Valentine day
Not very traditional for Valetine day but I wanted to wear cobalt trousers with navy and ink. I wore my cognac booties to work and discovered that my kitty chewed them as well! The naughty boy!!! Now I am definitely dyeing them ink blue to cover all those teeth marks and scratches (and I think they would work better for my current wardrobe in this color anyway)
Also could not resist from posting the shot with my Danier black coat and cobalt/black checkered scarf
