Not many outfit photos lately because I’ve been preoccupied with work (good stuff), and some other things that are more difficult (the death of a dear friend, and now getting rid of a tenant who is not paying their rent). I’m getting dressed quickly these days without a lot of thought, and my wardrobe is working for me. It seems I have lots of FFBO’s. They’re not particularly trendy, but I take it as a good sign that I still get compliments and feel like I’m staying true to my style and not chasing anything that doesn’t feel authentic to me.
1 Casual work day, work for visitors to my studio. McQueen scarf and new fave Minkoff gunmetal backpack (instant workhorse).
2/3 Casual work day with a meeting scheduled. New fave Tolani top. Comfy Pikolonos boots, and Peruvian Connection moto pants. Warm and rainy so I got to dig out the old Burberry!
4 Installing a gallery exhibition. A camera crew was there, so I tried to wear something I could work in that would still look ok on camera. Eileen Fisher sweater and bootcuts.
5 At a gallery opening with friends. My sleeve is hiked up and I'm holding my bulky wool coat, so it’s not a flattering pose, but just showing that my ancient (8 years old??) Club Monaco silk blouse with leather sleeves is still in steady rotation! Aimee Kestenberg crossbody bag, and a favorite scarf from NAS a few years ago.
6/7 At another gallery opening, both taken in front of a wall of my work. Zara blouse from a few years ago, with Paige bootcuts. Clearly I am explaining how I work in pic number 7, LOL.
8 Donating blood casual with band tee and slouchy beret.
9/10 Super casual with a trip to the hair salon. This is how my hair looks when it’s growing out and I wash and air dry with no product. That white and black tee is probably 10 years old — yay for Ralph Lauren quality.
11 Post haircut, vet office selfie in ultra casual hoodie and Uniqlo puffer.
Not feeling a huge urge to shop, and when I do, I’m being very picky. The least bit of discomfort (I’ve rejected severa contenders because they were itchy or scratchy or pinchy) means it’s a no. I have plenty so no need to acquire anything less than fab.
