Hi Fab Ones!

No surprise here I am sure!

One of the things I often think about is how to replicate my winter looks in summer friendly versions. Winter is my season of choice and hot summers that limit layering opportunities can get me down a little.

My winter version of this would be closed in boots, ponte pants and a long sleeve oversized sweater. I felt this was a good summer translation of a winter look:)

Outfit is as simple as it gets. Skinny black pants (Katies), fluid button down shirt (Jeans West) and open toe ankle boots (Rubi). Accessorized with silver and white necklace and silver rings and silver stud earrings. I always forget to take pics with my handbags but this bag is deserving of a picture. It is by Sandler and its such a fun bag for an all black outfit. It's one of those items that makes me feel very glam lol.

This is one of two button down shirts I own. I find button downs are best for me in soft draped fabrications rather than the crisp version. Far kinder to my bust area And with my shorter hair, I am loving the look of the collar done up:)

This outfit had a very high happiness factor, and I felt great as I delivered training in it today.

I should have linked to Angie's blog post but I think this outfit also demonstrates Angie's point about the slimming factor of fluid fits:)

Thanks for looking and your thoughts, opinions, suggestions for improvement are much appreciated.

P.s. Glad I felt great cos I was notified today that both my chefs for our community meal are out of action tomorrow... in trouble shooting mode now working out he we will get a meal on the table. Prayers, positive thoughts all very welcome x
