What I Wore Wednesday

Back again for another What I Wore Wednesday! We have been having my favourite kind of weather lately – nice and cool, but gloriously sunny – it really has been perfect over the past week! It was a mixed bag of outfits this week – some good, some that could do with improvement – and a few that really highlighted a gap in my wardrobe.

This top from Eileen Fisher is one of the most versatile pieces of clothing I’ve ever bought. I can literally wear it all year round – either on its own in summer, or layered over a long sleeved tee in winter – and the linen jersey just gets softer with each wear. I used to think that Eileen Fisher was just for “older ladies” but I am finding that I am slowly adding more and more of her pieces to my wardrobe, since I appreciate not only their style, but also their quality and ethos of the company.

Here is another Eileen Fisher piece that I found on ebay. It’s loose and comfy, and in person the draping and movement of the top is just amazing. But, the shorter proportions of the top means that I need to wear high heels with the outfit, so this is not one for running errands all day!

This CAbi tunic is really a summer item (made from chiffon), but I love it so much, and the deeper colours suit winter, so I am continuing to wear it, layered over a tee. I didn’t realize until just the other day how perfect this wool scarf was for this top, but the swirls of colour are just perfect!

Seeing this pic made me see that I really need to find a pair of slim cut, not skinny, jeans for my wardrobe. I think this outfit would’ve looked so much better with slim jeans.

Again, I think this outfit would have looked a thousand times better with slim fit jeans – they have definitely been added to my wardrobe wish list. Every time I wear this coat, I think of Once Upon A Time – can’t you just imagine Mary Margaret/Snow wearing one just like it?!
