WIW 7/12: Woman in chains

Veteran

I got this chain-print silk blouse at a Talbots super-blowout online clearance sale a couple of years ago. They only had size 12 but it is a super simple style so I had my tailor take it in and I was pleased with the results. Today I'm wearing it with a neutral skirt and my beloved striped blazer, and the happiness factor is very high indeed!

Blouse: Talbots
Tan pencil skirt: Halogen
Striped blazer: AT Loft
Nude pumps: Target
Studded belt: Streets Ahead
White satchel: Banana Republic

My newish white satchel is definitely my go-to piece for this summer! It was one of Angie's picks and I feel like it freshens up all my warm-weather outfits.

Thanks for looking. I always appreciate your feedback!

I agree with Ceit. And I loved your title

I have a white clutch but I think I would like a white satchel too. Yours always adds a bright touch to your outfits.

Ooh, love the stripes with chains! It's like a jailhouse theme! Which totally tickles me with the pencil skirt and pumps.

Love the Jailhouse Rock theme with the black and white stripes and chains! That white satchel truly is a fab workhorse.

I have a black pussybow blouse with chains and a black satchel, and a brown leather skirt. We should do a twin day sometime! I guess I'm the evil twin!

Can't compute because I am distracted by the fabulosity of that jacket. That does look like a most perfect summer satchel.

This is very elegant and eclectically beautiful to me. Classy colors combined with the pattern mix - like equestrienne goes business glam or something.
