The failed green pant suit made me do a bit more of a closet edit and also a review of what jackets I have that would work with the black pants I purchased recently.

As luck would have it, I discovered a jacket bought a while ago in the same fabric as my pants (from the same designer). I was never really sold on how the jacket looked with a skirt, so I have worn it, but not as much as I had hoped to.

Being black, it is far more slimming than the green suit and I like it with a floral blouse with matching scarf to make it more spring like.

Maybe the failed pant suit was a win after all, as it made me find a new combination that I had all along.

Of course, if you don't like this combination, it is not an issue, given these are just items I already have.
