Re: My closet: Spring is just around the corner...

Thank you all for your nice comments!
 

Okay, I know what I said, but...the cute Liz denim pea coat has been re-donated. I won't get enough use out of it to justify cluttering up my closet, and I have no intention of buying something to go with it like the pre-purge MacDuff would have done haha.  (Note to self:  Hello??   MacDuff?  Did you forget all the cute denim jackets you never wore and donated in the Purge?!?  Don't buy them!  SHEESH!)

 
 
Rec'd the black and the red mules...hated them...returned.  Awaiting the tan woven mules and fingers crossed.

[ Edited ]

Temps are still up and down here, but we're definitely moving into warm spring weather.

 

Received tan mules...too big...returned.

 

I decided the Kut from the Kloth distressed wide-legs were too distressed...would get "hole-y" too quickly.  I like some distressing, but draw the line at holes.  Returned.

Carry this bag often...carried it with the Equipment star blouse and Michael Stars outfits.  Margo whipstitched leather...Marshall's...bought it several years ago and it still looks like the day I bought it

Re: My closet: Spring is just around the corner...

I didn't like the Equipment silk star blouse with the skinnies.  According to my doc, I'm the incredible shrinking woman, and this blouse is now too long.  I thought of having my tailor take up the hem, but I don't think it's necessary.  In fact, the length is perfect for wearing it tied like this.  I like it styled this way much better.

Old AG wide-leg cropped trousers

Old Kenneth Cole sandals

Wow, MacDuff, you are certainly the model!

 

Wonderful, flattering, stylish choices and combinations.

 

Have a wonderful week ahead.  Everyone, too!
