Today's Outfit - Daytime Drama

I have 3 inspirations for this outfit today...I saw the first photo below on Atlantic-Pacific and realized I had almost identical pieces to this in my wardrobe already!  I'm linking up with Inspiration Monday at Two Birds who further inspired me with photo #2.  And a few days ago I had admired Melanie (from Bag and a Beret) as she dressed down her beautiful opera gown for daytime wear as seen in photo #3.
I had thrifted this red skirt, but had only worn it to the ballet once.  So I thought I'd throw on a reeeeeeally old pleather jacket (that I probably haven't worn in 15 years) with a more casual striped turtleneck and black booties and wear it to work.  We'll see if I get many odd looks from our patients. haha





Thrifted Items:  Red skirt $4.99 (handmade?), striped turtleneck $2 Great Northwest Clothing Co., black booties, bracelets, black leather handbag $8 Fossil.

  1. Lisa, I am so happy that I inspired you!! Your skirt has made the leap from ballet-going-wear to daytime wear with flying colours! Your pleather coat and boots, and the bold stripes are magnificent. Beautiful!

  3. Wow, what a great outfit! I too am inspired by BEE at
    A/P. I had to have the monogram necklace she wears as it is just the coolest thing ever. My signature bracelets are also inspired by hers. Seeing her wear them everyday inspired me for sure.
    You look as pretty as she does!
