Tonight after work, I am heading into the city to meet some friends for a cocktail and dinner at fabulous Asian restaurant
Seamstress. I needed something dressy enough for dinner and smart enough for work so I ended up combining both new and old pieces of my wardrobe:
The jacket you might recognise from my previous post
here and the skirt is an old one from
Portmans. I love the skirt for it's cute knife pleats that line the hem all the way around. The ruffle flicks out as I walk:
Finally, I've added an old scarf knotted at the neck to add a little flair. I hope it doesn't scream "trolley dolly" too much, what do you think?
Naturally, because I live in Melbourne, I have matching red
pashmina and a black three quarter sleeved jacket to keep back the after-dark chill. Oh my! What has
happened to our Australian summer?

Looove your skirt! Kisses ;)
Lovely outfit, and I think the scarf is perfect! Not too trolly dolly at all ;)
i just came home from a fashion trip to melbourne, it was so cold. Im based on the coast and didnt think my high waisted shorts and singlets would cause me to freeze down there. arggghhh.

Would you like to exchange links, i love adding my fellow Aussies. :)
Why thank you Miss Karen, the red vest is finding it's way into lots of outfits lately :)
Miss Urbanita, I always feel 'swishy' when I wear it - and between you and me: I have only just recently fit back into it after a long time!
Thanks for the reassurance Miss Red. Sometimes I worry about going over-board with a look :)
