This week has been warmer than normal for the season, and I'm not complaining. We still have two feet of snow, but our roads are more or less bare and dry. Yesterday I celebrated the lovely weather by wearing my trench and Chucks for the first time this year.
My outfit is loosely based on Angie's Classics and Pastels Formula, which I instantly fell in love with. I decided to do a dark column, though, and added light outerwear, shoes and a scarf. I went to a work meeting plus an afternoon tea date with a good friend.
The outfit: Navy cashmere v-neck, navy slim wool trousers, white Converse, stone trenchcoat, pink floral silk scarf, black leather tote.
The scarf is worth a little extra mentioning: It is a thrift find from earlier this year. It is by Ralph Lauren and a lovely floral in fat, fabulous silk. I showed it to my brother who thought it looked exactly like one our beloved Granny used to wear. Maybe that's part of why I like it so much? It's certainly not my typical colors or style, but I love it anyway.
I must admit that I felt great in this, although it was on the brink of being too cold for it. What do you think? Does it work?
