Only two items but I guess this is a mini burgandy/wine haul lol!
Blouse is $10 clearance find! Love the flutter sleeves and wrap/crossover front. (I tried this on quickly, and it really needs a camisole for everyday use. So I won’t be wearing it so open and free as photographed. Not mom friendly sans cami.)
It has subtle satin and metallic pinstripes woven into the fabric. It’s a fairly thin chiffon that I have a feeling could snag easily. Definitely keeping it for church, lunch out, and date night. I don’t know if it will work with my new plaid half circle skirt. I do think with jeans it will be a quick but lovely outfit. Only sad thing is it’s not an everyday mom blouse, which I really need.
The blouse needs surgery. It’s a body suit and is way too short for my torso. It is beyond wedgie territory! The band you see at the bottom is actually the hip band. (I tucked the crotch part under.) The material is a thick, 4-way stretch swimsuit type material. I’m going to try cutting the crotch part off and blending the hem, or take it to my tailor for similar changes.
Hat. I don’t wear hats often even though I love them and feel they suit me. It’s wool blend felt and was inexpensive. So I’m going to try wearing it more.
My husband joked my entire wardobe one day will be wine colored. Lol!! I admit, I adore burgandy, berry, and wine shades. I almost always default to shades in that spectrum, and admittedly, I get in a rut and rarely choose other colors. So I’m working on varying colors.
