WIW...first day as a pensioner!

LOL! My last day of work was March 23rd, but I was off on accumulated vacation days last week. Today is my first official day as a retired person! It was cold, grey, and rainy...

#1 red raincoat - Nautica
White jeans - RL
Silver sneakers - converse
Seatbelt bag - Harveys

#2 navy cotton/cashmere sweater - Uniqlo

Love this super soft sweater - washer+dryer! No issues. The RL white jeans are on day 2 with minimal wrinkling across the lap. Win! I think I need a scarf - a big square foulard.

Thanks for looking.

Love you in the red jacket! And the bag goes really well with your outfit. I'm all about totes. You can get so much in them. You don't look old enough to be a pensioner.
