Lace top from Kaliko |
What I really like about this top, apart from the colour, is the draping which suits my body shape very well. It's about the only lace item in my wardrobe even though it's in all the shops! So far I don't see any reason to get more lace, but I'd love more tops like this in a plain fabric!
If you try to ignore the strange quality of the photo (due to my husband's experiments with his new camera!), you should be able to see the colour better in this picture:

Earlier this week I wore one of my ruched tops, from H&M. It has a lovely Asian inspired print which makes it better than plain black for my colouring. I have an old jacket in Chinese brocade that begged to come out and play with the top, see how perfect they were for each other:

My dog thought it was his turn to be the model. When I told him no he was very, very disappointed!
Could he look more sad? |
By coincidence the lining of the jacket matched the top's print, and I had to show you!

Now, all that's missing is a close up of the necklaces - so here it is! The Zara diamonds, and a homemade coral necklace.

It seemed very appropriate at the end of the post, that this is where you see the end of me...
Nicely fitted jacket |
This week has been very busy, and the next will be absolutely chaotic. At school my grroup and I are handing in an assignment, showing that we're mastering database building skills...
I hope you all have a lovely weekend!
Dejlige farver. Og jeg kan godt lide at foret i den smukke jakke passer til blusens print. Da jeg så din koral kæde, kom jeg i tanke om, at jeg også har sådan en. Den må jeg finde frem. Blonde toppen er meget smuk. Hvor er den sød din hund, ja den ser lidt ked ud af det. Du må love det bliver hans tur næste gang. God weekend :)
ReplyDeleteMange tak Anne-Marie! Jakken er faktisk ret gammel, så det er sjovt at finde nye ting, som passer til den. Så bliver den lidt ny igen!
DeleteDu har ret, jeg må nok hellere lade den stakkels hund få lidt kameratid, så han kan få sin modeldrøm tilfredsstillet
I love the dark olive color of the first top. It's very flattering and you and the cut is just perfect too.
ReplyDeleteYou and that sad puppy have a good weekend, okay?
Gracey
Thank you so much Gracey! The olive colour is a first for me - I always thought it wouldn't suit me. Now I may try to find other tops in that colour... When my budget isn't restricted anymore.
DeleteThe dog is happy again, being bribed with food and goodies!
Great looks! I love the Chinese jacket, it's so vibrant. Gorgeous necklaces too, and oh my, the saddest-faced doggie ever!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Patti! Soon I'll have to give the dog a chance to shine on this blog - he's been so patiently waiting his turn!
DeleteBoth are top tops! But I have a particular fondness for the red jacket with the top in the last photo. Bring on the colour, baby!
ReplyDeleteThank so much Melanie! Next time I may even add a coloured bottom!
DeleteI think your doggy was jealous as he has to wear the same fur everyday, and you got to mix and wear new combinations all the time. Maybe he would cheer up if he gets a new leash? The top with the Asian inspired print is one of my favorites from your closet, which I might have told you before, and both tops are indeed very flattering on you! Well done as usual! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Anna! You may be on to something! My first impulse was to let him have a few more photos on the blog, without me in the background! A new leash however, could be the solution. Maybe one with diamonds like Mom's?
DeleteIndeed, I think he would look very handsome with some diamonds! Only the best is good enough for our pets, right?!
DeleteOh sad dog!
ReplyDeleteLove the fit of the lace top, you're right, it's very flattering. But then I love the colour of the second look, red and turquoise, beautiful combination! xxx
Thank you so much Curtise! The red jacket was actually the one that I got married in!
DeleteA perfect fitting jacket for sure! And wonderful closing to you post. ;)
ReplyDeleteThe lace top fits you wonderfully and I think you look great with red lips!
Thank you very much Joni! I've always liked the way this jacket fits on the back, and I guess I could wear the red lipstick with it too. Next time!
DeleteThe jacket is gorgeous as are your strands of sparkle and coral. And that dog of yours! bee-yooo-teeee-full, arf!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Bella! Some day I'll have to dedicate a post to my dog only!
DeleteYou look fantastic in that lace top, I do agree, that shape is perfect for you. :) snickering at dog trying to outpose you, no wonder he looks sad when being told to scoot off :)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Monica! As I just wrote to Bella: The dog will have to have his own post some day! Somebody around where we live has already made him a Facebook page!
