Grey Days

Coat: Zara. Top: Improvd. Skirt: Club Monaco. Clutch: Balenciaga. Boots: unknown. Rings: Stella & Dot, H&M. Sunglasses: Chanel.

 

Happy Monday Everyone!  I hope you all had a great weekend!  Did you all watch Beyonce’s AH-MAZ-ING Superbowl halftime show?  Wow, she killed it!

 

Now, on to the outfit. . .I bought this coat a few months ago, but the rest of the pieces I’m wearing are all several years old.  The Improvd wrap top I’m wearing is a really cool piece.  It can actually also be worn upside down with a slip underneath and it looks like a dress.  The boots I purchased in NYC many years ago from some random store we stumbled upon while strolling through Soho.  The label on the shoe is worn out so I can’t remember the brand name, but I do know  it’s a brand I have not heard of.  I spent years searching for the perfect black high boot and got so lucky I came across these.  I have pretty short legs with relatively big feet for my height ( size 8 ), so it’s extremely difficult to find boots that fit my calf and legs properly.  It will be a sad, sad day when these wear out.

Ruffled Feathers

Feather Skirt

Club Monaco Feathered Skirt

Feather Skirt

Skirt: Club Monaco. Blazer: Zara. Top: J.Crew (similar). Shoes: Nine West. Tights: Hue. Handbag: Chanel. Rings: Stella & Dot, H&M.

 

This Club Monaco feather skirt is just so much fun to wear!  Although I think I may sometimes push the boundaries of work appropriate attire, even I know that a feathered mini is not be the best option for the office.  I wore this outfit to work last week but swapped out the feather skirt for a black circle skirt during the day, then switched to the feathers for some after work cocktails.

 

Thank you to everyone who has entered the Ciate Mini Mani Month Giveaway, and thank you for all of the wonderful nail polish recommendations.  I’ll definitely be checking some of them out.  Just a reminder that the contest is open until Monday!
