Yesterday I wore two different outfits inspired by the outfit formula on the blog.

The first outfit was for WFH, where I participated in an online Zoom panel lively broadcasted to a large audience, so I was feeling a little nervous. The outfit is my rendition of the first one on the blog: column of black with a textural/tweed topper, in my case a light grey tweed knit equestrian blazer. I wore it over sleeveless ribbed turtleneck (still too warm for wool), black faux leather cropped kick flare pants, and black Alexander Wang booties I scored this summer. You couldn't see the edgier bottom half of the outfit on the broadcast, but it gave me a bit of extra confidence. For an office version, I would wear black pants in velveteen instead of faux leather.

The second outfit was for a fun "girls evening out" dinner, trying to take opportunity of the last couple of weeks warm enough that dining out is still possible. It consisted of ribbed knit marled midi dress, mixed media blazer (wool suiting +leather), tall suede boots and studded cross body bag. Normally I prefer shorter jackets with dresses, but I am at the high end of my weight range and the dress is thus more fitted than usual, hence the longer jacket.
