Meeting in a Cold Building

catherine

I dressed warmly for a meeting in a building that is always quite chilly. I think it looks kind of utilitarian and not very fab. If you would have any tips, I'm all ears. Thank you so much in advance.

They all look like great pieces but it's the length of the shirt/dress that is throwing me - what is it like with the jacket open?

You look fab! Wait till Inge sees that green moto. She might steal it from you.

Love the green moto! I second Caro. I think it has to do with proportions around the shirt.

More love for green moto! I second the others about the proportions. I very much like the blue and green together, and the sleeves are a great touch.

Love green moto with blue denim! I think if you wear the jacket open proportions would be better.

This looks great but you might try silk long underwear for warmth without bulk.

Great colours together, and I love both the tunic and the jacket individually too.

I wonder if it is possible to do the zip up in reverse (ie, open at the bottom and closed in the top or middle) --- that might be a better proportion. Did you have a bag you carried too? (I was thinking a crossbody strap would add an interesting diagonal line to contrast, and while carrying the eye through both 'sections', also break up the blocks of green and blue a bit).

Angie was right: keep that fantastic green moto jacket under lock and key because I have my eye on it!!-)
(Seriously, I would love a leather jacket in this exact shade of green, so gorgeous!)

I love your outfit Catherine, the green and blue are fab together, and I really like the proportions of the shorter jacket + longer tunic style shirt + skinnies + boots too.

That is a lovely jacket, thank you A.K! I think I'd prefer real leather for my next jacket, but I'll certainly keep this one in mind.

LOVE that jacket. To my mind, just about anything you wore with it would look fab!

You look cute. The green is fantastic and always goes with blue IMO.

I'd wear the jeans over the boots to sharpen the overall look up. The jacket and boots are very similar in texture, to my eye, and that might feel like *too much of a good thing* to you.
