Dear Fabbers,
Maybe you remember I was planning a challenge to start in November which we would call style stretching. Unfortunately, I have just had a tough period both professionally and personally and have not had the possibility to spend much time with YLF, which I am very sorry about. So, if anyone is still interested, let’s just give it a try. Here is the link to the original post.

I started with a style stretching lite today and tested some new combinations. To chear myself up a little, I treated myself with a new gold patent leather bag. Great find in an online outlet btw. I tried to make some outfits around it. My style stretches are several here. Firstly, a pair of chopped off white jeans wintertime - new to me. Secondly, metallics are rather new to me too, have not had such a shiny bag before And thirdly - I made a B&W outfit without a scarf and used a large necklace instead.

I am wearing the gold bag with a black blazer worn over a black turtleneck, white chopped off jeans, gold/black patterned boots and gold necklace and earrings. Large sunglasses.
The second rendition is with my olive puffer and white patterned silk scarf. The zippers on the puffer are gold, so it works nicely with the gold handbag. Same jeans and boots.

What do you guys think about my new bag and the outfits? Any comments and ideas appreciated. Pictures will come in a minute.
