Is it really only Tuesday? It feels like it should be Thursday at least!
Today is the second wearing of the black leather skirt, and I must say, some of the honeymoon is over.
I love the cut and duh, it's leather, I love that. However, the leather isn't the nice thick Danier leather; it's quite thin and has a crinkly feel to it. It also gets weird dusty marks on it when I brush up against things, like boxes or desks.Are you ready to vote?
Halogen black leather skirt: Outfit #2
And to think I wouldn't have realized this with my old pre-challenge methods! I think most of us buy something new, wear it once (maybe right away, maybe not) and then we don't haul it out again for a few months, or even a year or longer? Am I right?
I'm finding out NOW how much of a keeper things are. I like it.
In the process, I'm enjoying revisiting some old favourties, like this awesome David Findlay brown tweed blazer that I featured in February's capsule (recap here).
The silk teal blouse is Smoking Lily and was in March's capsule (recap here). I love the pattern of flies on it! So unexpected.
I also wore these shoes in March's capsule:
You can see a bit of the sparkle in the tweed there |
