Dear Fabbers,

Today I put together a new colour combination (to me new at least).

An orange silk/cotton blend blazer over a fuchsia top, a purple satin trousers and a purple velvet/chiffon scarf. I added a gold brooch with amethyst. Black patent leather shoes and black handbag.

The blazer is Escada I bought in an auction three years ago, the trousers are a newish outlet find, also from Escada, and the scarf is really old, also Escada, which I bought some twenty years ago and was almost forgotten. Brooch is a gift from DH, bag vintage Mappin&Webb.

I was happy about the colours. I am not so sure about the shoes, though.

What do you guys think about this colourful outfit? Grateful for honest feedback, ideas, comments and whatever comes to mind.
