Thank you Brooklyn….am hunting around for the ‘raw material’

Hah SF! So much to discuss! Brooklyn had suggested a cropped jacket, and the proportions of the denim jacket seem to work don’t they?

Love Paul Simon and the denim jacket is the right shape and proportion.

Great styling! I love 3, 12, 13, 17. I prefer simple, clean looks.
You'll have a lot of fun with this skirt, and obviously everyone has had a great time with this thread.
I'll just slip out the back.

Did you try that white blazer with the skirt? I remembered Angie's post Outfit formula: Flared skirt and Long blazer, who knows maybe it would be interesting.

Laurie, hopefully I’m not sounding crude by repeating my thanks for kind comments
Mirjana, I’ll give it a go and post a photo when I get a chance. Your stylish eye is sooo good that I must try it out!

Love the column of cobalt especially!

Looking forward to see .

These are all great on you - especially the tucked &/ or cropped tops (think I might need to 'borrow' #13) I particularly like the chartreuse (of course) & the cinnamon is an unexpected combo but it still works.

Bonus points for adding structure around your neckline by having your hair up like that with the glasses - but of course I'm biased, being partial to that look myself haha

The lovely and ever so stylish Mirjana recommended that I try on my white blazer with the electric blue skirt. It’s a nice pairing, and I think it could work if the blazer was more of a boyfriend and not so fitted.
over to you lovely fabbers, what are your thoughts?
and pic 5 is gratuitous granddaughter photo, she’s absconded my handbag and is using the shoulder strap to walk puppy.

Love, love with the white blazer, both are beautiful, but with a white top is fantastic, so crisp and summary and also very elegant.
Your granddaughter is so sweet .

Thank you so much for your kind comments Mirjana. It really is wonderful to have outfit feedback, I think the outfit in pic 4 will be perfect for silent auction I’m attending today.

Yes, absolutely. Have a nice time.

Awesome white blazer! So good over the white top. I see your knack for fashion is getting passed on to another generation. Creative dog walking

Late to the thread but these are all so good! Who knew that a cobalt blue pleated skirt could be so versatile! You've given me some great ideas! I do think the weight of the top makes a difference with the floaty nature of the skirt. The color and the fabrication of the skirt seem more spring/summer but I see how footwear can make it work for winter or fall. I think the lighter weight tops make the most sense and of course, the denim and white blazers. All so gorgeous. I can't pick a fave but I love the column of color in the first few pics and the Breton with the stompy boots in 12 is super fun too. I love the lemon yellow combo and the printed button down--all sooooo good! I never realized I need a cobalt skirt! Haha.
