I'm planning an outfit for an informal dinner at a senior collegaue's house in the woods(!). She has invited everyone at the writing seminar I'm part if. And we're all making a dish for the feast. The local nameing of such a dinner is «basket party», implying that everyone brings a basket of food for all to share.

The hostess is brilliant at her work. However, fashion/dressing is probably not on her mind at all. Hence, I don't want to look too trendy or «flashy». I'll probably wear
-white tank top with black stripes
-vintage red a-line skirt with navy and white dots
-cream topper

Questions are:
1: What do you think of the pattern mixing? Too much?
2: Yellow coat or checked duster?
3: black slingbacks with graphic heel or metallic vintage block heel shoes?
4: what kind of bag would you suggest?

Bags #2: burgundy, white, red, yellow/silver/cream clutch

Bags #3: taupe, black, clutch with studs

If you have other outfit ideas, suggestions, tweeks or feedback you are very welcome!
