All I want to Wear: #OOTD

(There is no way of taking nice pics in the temporary unit we're living in as we re-model our loft. Here for another 3 months).

On that note, here are some really bad pics of my #OOTD!

Case in point. Uniform #1 for Spring and Summer is what I'm wearing right now, to WFH. Doing errands, walking doggies, and running around too. I'll pop a trench coat over the lot for outside.

FORMULA:

Trendy white jeans + shirt + sweater + flat shoes + fun bag + retro eyewear + pearls

Trendy on the bottom. Modern Classic up top. Fashionable bag and shoes. Lots of colour! Sometimes patterns. Fashionable fluid fits. Eyewear is on point

#1 showcases the correct colours of the outfit. They are sour, and not blue toned like the inside photos show.

#6 is the red Desigual jacket in action a couple of weeks ago. Match my red specs. I enjoy a good match!

Thanks for looking. xo

Oh that green gingham and sweater combo is so fresh for spring and looks wonderful with the white jeans. Love the pop of sunshine with the bright yellow bag and shoes.

You're so nice, Dee, Thanks for the kind words!

These darker sour greens are working well with my natural hair colour! Fun addition. Want to get this jacket too:

Fun!

That is the word that popped into my head when I saw these gorgeous pictures.

And don't we all need a dose of fun in our lives? Thank you Angie!

Oh, lovely colors for spring. The green gingham shirt and sweater combo is so fresh for spring , gorgeous on you. Yellow bag gives the final touch. The red Desigual jacket is fantastic. You really look wonderful.

This is so much fun! You look terrific and what a great yellow bag! I like the shirt peeking out from under the sweater. And consider me impressed that you manage to look so spring-fresh on what is a gorgeous but still cool spring day!

Bonnie

Love your colorful styling and your new longer hair, too. I would love to get the red and the green jackets but I don't need more jackets. It's a struggle.

Love the green! The pics are really not bad at all — ah, the challenges of renovation! How is it going?

Your spring style is fresh and pretty - very nice! I love that green moto but definitely do not need more jackets when our weather seems to get less jacket-appropriate every year. *pout*

Tanya

You look beautiful and the green suits you so well. So does the new red jacket. That green moto needs to be yours.

Thanks for chiming in, everyone! Appreciate the kind words. I just LOVE wearing white bottoms with brights and blues. Makes me happy!

Sabimct, FUN is fab in my book

Mirjana, you're a sweetheart, and go Team RED!

Suz, I know, right? We used to wear this preppy "sweater over shirt" look 40 and 20 years ago. I'm back to doing it again! And yes - wore a jacket outside. Chilly. This one in fact!

bonnie, you're another sweetheart, and thanks for making me laugh! Come live in Seattle where we wear jackets A LOT. Thanks for the hair love too.

Janet, thank you! Come to Seattle to wear your jackets. To answer your question - frustrating. Slow, insanely expensive, and have had to break the project up into phases. I do not recommend remodeling, unless it's your thing

Tanya! That's high praise, and I'm blushing. I need to just GET THAT GREEN MOTO

Sharan, as always, you're a honey!

OMG I love the green and yellow outfit on you!

Oh, adorable! So fresh, Angie, and fun!

Great spring looks - love them both.

And I hear you on the renovation pain - expensive and challenging......

We should all take such really bad pictures Angie . You look like Spring itself, the color of new buds and sunshine. I am thinking about how you say you are classic on top. Somehow the combination and the color balances the classic so you look very current although yes the pieces are classic. The bag is perfect here too. Thanks for sharing!

You might feel the pics are bad, but the outfits are superb!

Remodeling seems to inevitably be a VERY trying experience! Why can it never go as planned? But somehow you will make it through!

Joy

I love the green on you'. You look bright and enthusiastic.

Thanks for the kind words, Irina and Joy!

Sal and Laura, appreciate the remodeling empathy, and outfit compliments!

Jaime, such generous words! I'm blushing To my eye, it's the fluid fits of the classics up top that make them look current.

Star

You look so fab! Love the preppy top half. The green jacket is divine.

Wow, YLK2K and love you in greens, Angie! And your hair is now a fab mane!! I noticed, I also have a crush on greens nowadays--it is in the air, or what?:-). Red and new green jackets are soooo juicy!

Olive Green

Veteran

Both the red and green jackets are so pretty. Your style is never boring!

kkards

I don’t know why but this outfit had me thinking of daisy’s, (my favorite flower)l maybe it’s the happy bright yellow, green and white. Or maybe it just says spring in the same way I think daisies do

And if I was interested in that red jacket before, I now have a serious case of the wants.

April

Veteran

I don't know, your pics look pretty good to me! 3 more months - so you will move back in the thick of summer?

RobinF

Ooh love the green and yellow combo! So sunny!

Remodeling can be frustrating for sure. I remember the first time we did any official remodeling (like hiring a professional and knocking out walls, not just painting which we did a lot of) my boss said to me "take the time estimate and double it" and that was pretty much exactly what happened. Hang in there, it'll be worth it.

What you do with color and casual crispness is a tutorial, Angie. Love the silhouettes and your commitment to fashion fun even in the present reno turmoil. It’s all about the result, because the process itself is usually daunting. We’re in the design phase ourselves and anticipate months of chaos. Your observations confirm my expectations. Hang in there!

Thanks, everyone!

kkards, how delightful and '60s to be compared to a daisy!

Star and Olive Green, fab to know my stye is not boring

April, by August is the plan.....then we start phase 2 while we live in our loft. Remodeling is daunting.

Lyn67 and Eliza, such kind and encouraging words as always. Appreciated! You are both sooo lovely.

Eliza, good luck with your remodel!

Go Team Bright Green
