Happy Sunday ladies!

This is one of the items I bought earlier this week in Melbourne.

I had been watching it online since it became available and wasn't sure until I actually tried it on in store if it was for me. I don't have a desire to add pattern to my wardrobe but when I am tempted, it usually black and white:)

The jacket is the Mali Long Sleeve Jacket from Metalicus. Here is the link http://http//www.metalicus.com.....white.html for anyone interested:) Metalicus does ship overseas

It's a clever jacket! It has snaps at the side and that is how I am wearing it today. But it also has snaps on the shoulder so it can be draped upward and secured on the left shoulder. And it can of course be worn open and draped. It is polyester/spandex blend and is quite lightweight which makes it perfect for layering.

My outfit started off with black ponte leggings, ankle boots and a plain black shirt. I don't think I have shown you the shirt before. It is from Target, a nice fabric, cut and length. Collared shirts are rare in my wardrobe because it is so hard to find ones that fit me well (and have a nice small collar) so when this one worked I had to buy it. I was going to wear a blanket wrap with the outfit but just wasn't feeling it so I popped the jacket on just to see how it worked and I decided I liked the combo.

A couple of friends at church this morning said they loved the jacket, so hopefully I'm on a winner;)

What say you? Your thoughts, suggestions and critique much appreciated.
