Running Out in My New Chore Jacket

Off to work with a client. Mild and dry in Seattle. Lucky!

Second outing of brand new pink chore jacket. It works flawlessly with my Spring/Summer wardrobe. My word. Better than I thought! It will become a workhorse. The silhouette is versatile for my style too. I love the trapeze silhouette. The white buttons MAKE it for me.

Outfit = Streamlined Volume

Colour palette makes me very happy.

Tried to get some back and side pics of the new 'do for those who wanted to see - Jaime, Lisa P and Suz. Waves natural and air dried with product. Soooooo happy I grew out my hair.

High fiving Kathie who just bought the same jacket!

High living Jane who will have it soon

Beautiful inspiration. I took a photo of me in mine this am but my phone is having trouble sending it.

In the meantime, love this outfit on you!

April, can we help you with the tech part of that pic? And thank you. Girly and pearly - just like old times

Kelly, you're kind and lovely as always.

Runcarla

Lovely outfit, Angie, thank you for sharing. ❤️

Here you go -- my vintage French chore coat, birthday gift from DS. Not styled in any way, wet hair and flip flops. Sorry about that.

Wow, so pretty! Pink and yellow.....not something I'd lean toward but it's really gorgeous. Those chore jackets are often so boxy but you've found one that is not!

YAY, April. I'm digging the vintage chore jacket. DS did well. Lovely shade of blue.

Carla, thank you. xo

Chris, YES. Fitted on the shoulders and trapeze everywhere else. Better on my slight frame than boxy all over.

kkards

wow, it's like that jacket was made to go with that skirt....love the juxtaposition of the soft, floaty skirt with the harder jacket...very early 90s

bella

What a lovely color pallette. I am loving your new long fringe as well.

Kathie

Love it on you! And the skirt is such a perfect match! I was just thinking the same, about the shoulder fit- that's what makes the rest of the volume work for me as well. And, it's so much fun to wear!

Bonnie

Love it! It looks fantastic with your striped skirt. Your new hair style is fun and fab, too.

kkards, YES. Very lucky with the colour match. I'm going with an '80s look sans the shoulder pads

Bella and bonnie, you're sweet and I appreciate the kind words.

Kathie, I know, right? Versatile! Clever fit, and great colour. *Waving*

Tanya

So, so pretty! The colors are delicious on you.

Beautiful, this jacket looks gorgeous on you and is perfect match with the skirt. I would never look at this jacket twice after seeing it on the model, but it looks so much better on you. Love your hair too. You must have a very talented hairdresser.

JAileen

You look fantastic!

Oh, Angie it is even better than I envisioned from the online photo. Wow, with that skirt, and the whole outfit!!

texstyle

Absolutely GORGEOUS

The jacket looks fabulous with the skirt. Such great colors! I really like your new 'do too.

The Cat

Perfect colour match. Fun and lovely look. And I really like the style of your chore jacket. I know I wrote in a comment to your recent blog post on chore jackets that I didn't feel attracted to them. But if I found one in a style similar to the one you are showing here, there would definitely be several possibilities for it in my wardrobe and my life. Thank you for the inspiration.

Lovely outfit. And the 'do is so fun and fresh.

Classically Casual

What a beautiful and unique ensemble! I predict the KM skirt will be one of your iconic pieces in the “Angie Hall of Fame”

The chore jacket is much more feminine in appearance than I imagined, and suits you perfectly.

Murph11

Beautiful from head-to-toe! Love, love, love your hair! It's a party in front AND in back

The jacket goes so perfectly with that lovely skirt! You look amazing as always! Thanks for the back view of your hair...so FAB!
