Orphan Layers

Today's challenge at Putting Me Together was to wear something you haven't worn in six months or more.  So I took the opportunity to wear three things I haven't worn in six months or more:




The maxi dress was last worn this past summer.  I layered it under a long-line wool cardigan last worn sometime last winter.  And I added a scarf last worn sometime the winter before.


So many orphans.  So many layers:


Dress: LOFT (similar)  Cardigan: thrifted  Scarf: Nordstrom (similar)
Hat: Nordstrom  Gloves: Target (similar)


And so very cold.  Which is why I also added tights, OTK socks, a turtleneck, a stocking cap and long gloves.


Happy Thursday, All!

Cranberry

I guess this cardigan could be called "red" but red is boring and I grew up looking at J.Crew catalogs, so I'm calling it cranberry:


Dress: c/o eShakti  Cardigan: thrifted   Tights: Spanx   Boots: Nine West "Darsy"

I know it doesn't seem like enough for cold November weather, but it's a lovely wool/silk mix and is warm as heck.  I thrifted it a couple of years ago and don't wear it nearly enough, I think because the proportions are a bit difficult to work with.

Then I remembered that I have trouble with proportions anyway so I just slapped it on over my eShakti sheath dress and some tights:


In case you were curious, the dress is oatmeal with an ink trim and the tights and boots are ebony.

Happy Friday, All!
