Scrolls and Plaid





I wasn't smart with my ensemble today in a major aspect: I wore brogues and it's rain storming like crazy.  Where the hell are my rainboots? (lost in the hallway closet, somewhere...)  I am wearing some sneaky no-show sock things to keep my toes toasty, but I'm still cold and geez, I need some sun.  I got this new tunic from #goldentote and it looks great with jeans but I needed a way to fit into my weekday looks. The total color scale is a bit drab, but so is the overcast sky.  The scroll pattern is a piece of interest since I'm enveloped in gray plaid and oatmeal shades. I am wearing a silver-plated cuff bracelet, a teeny silver globe necklace and a black medallion ring to balance it out.

Florals and Basics







Today's springtime florals are brought to you by this lovely henley blouse I hope to own for ages and ages.  I have on florals and basics today.  Since my top has lots going on, I paired it with a black pencil skirt, nude flats, and a big white beaded necklace that goes with my simple silver chain hinge cuff and jade ring.  I did curl my hair a bit, but I'm guessing the high winds and humidity changes are just going to fight against me and cause me to seriously think about chopping off all of it. Well, most of it.  I'm delighted to just not have to wear my black tights; I love them a ton, but just need less dark. Bon jour!
