Workday Wardrobe ~ Nov 13-15
It was a short week due to unforeseen circumstances…
Wednesday
It was the first day back to work after the you-know-what…it was COLD…and I thought I would have Camera Club, so I dressed accordingly in a cozy mahogany boucle turtleneck sweater from Ulla Popken. It’s no longer available but here are some comparable items…
And here I am trying to knock that kidney stone right out!
THURSDAY
Don’t look at me. I’m a mess. Somehow all my alarms were off this morning and I just happened to wake up at 7:17am. I’m usually in my car to leave for work between 7:26-7:30. I had to change my original outfit to this one, so..bad hair, no makeup. Somehow the magic of photography is making it all look a little better than it really was. Sometimes you’re given a gift. Thank you, Universe.
ANYWAY. This is a good outfit. BASE. It’s a good outfit BASE. I like the simplicity and neutral tones. But even I know it needs a little sumpn sumpn. A multicolored scarf, some pendant necklaces, some gold jewelry on my ears and wrists. I’ve been looking for a very thin black-and-white striped turtleneck and I think I might even layer that under the dress next time as it gets colder. But it has promise for future wearings.
Friday
Friday. Finally. It was a little milder today. I had a dr’s appt scheduled and no camera club so I was able to wear a dress. I really like this combination. I don’t wear wine much but I do like it with this faded denim color Tencel dress. And it was between the chestnut Me Too loafers and the taupe Me Too (oh! ha, hadn’t even realized that) flats from yesterday. They both worked, I just went with these cuz I wore the other ones yesterday.
Short week. And now I’m going to bed.

Love that Mahogany turtleneck – it’s a great shade of brown!
I have the Banana republic sweater on the lower left – FYI it’s rusty orange, not brown (but I kept it anyway because I like orange too.)
I hope you get some rest.

I hope you have a fantastic weekend! And I love the wine on you!

You got up with that little time left and still took photos…now that’s amazing. Heck, I’d be wearing a scarf to cover my entire head if that were the case!!!
Love the two pairs of shoes Bettye!!! (you know my obsession with footwear)…
XOXO

I love that sweater in the first picture – and the longer gray cardigan. The yellow leaves behind you are pretty too.
Grace & Peace,Iris
