Bill - ah, it's the SHANGHAI blazer that is part of the £70 suit. It's not the most deluxe, I admit, but I think it's excellent value and a flattering shape. I have it in stone and wore it on the public holiday. On day we just had, w a printed silk tee and skinnies, and nude pointed flats. I've also worn it w a leopard print top, too. That CAFE quilted jacket is so nice, but the colours don't work for me. And not sure the style really suits me, either. Or maybe I just need to get used to the boho thing.
Ed - I do love a little yellow, but no poly for me. I can't be the only person who found themselves sweating in synthetics, esp as they age?
Stokey - I can only wear skirts that flare out below the hips, else I look too big. I love big skirts, but they are [channels Run DMC] "tricky, tricky, tricky. I will do a post on non pencil skirts soon, as I do love a fuller skirt, when I find one that works on me.
