I cheated...

Yes, well, I couldn't help it...once I finished sewing all the buttons back on anthro's Perdita blouse (all but one of which fell off when I opened the package!) I couldn't help but try it with the ol' ochre pencil skirt and...one thing led to another, and I had to wear it to work today!

Back on the no-stripes-with-yellow wagon tomorrow.

But voila, say bienvenue to the lovely Perdita!



I actually wore it with eggplant-coloured tights and my grey campers shoes, which was a gorgeous combo with the ochre.
Gee, do you think I should buy a few more of this skirt for posterity?  eeps.

The blouse is pretty well made and fairly true to size (the xs is ever so slightly big)- I love the fluttery details on the tailored stripes.  It was a bit wrinkly here though- I really should invest in a steamer!
