I’m sure the word “tartaned” of the post’s title isn’t really a word, and I’ve probably spelt it wrong. Not to worry – I guess you can’t really spell a word wrong if you’re the one making it up 😉

So this was quite a straightforward work outfit – this is about as corporate as I go for the office. I simply threw on some fun socks and kept the cape handy for when the office gets cold (hurry up springtime…!). Though I’m not so happy about the socks/shoes/trouser hemline thing going on now I’ve seen the photo. Another one I’ve learned from the photo, not the mirror: with these chinos don’t wear socks and heels. Would have looked better I think with socks and brogues, or heels and no socks. And the cape was a bit creased for the photo, but it came home with me in my bag, oops.

All of this sounds a bit negative for me, doesn’t it – I’m so sorry! Perhaps an online thread I read about my blog (the negativity of which highly amused me) has inadvertently rubbed off a little… No need for any of you lovely people to comment about that here – I should have one of my Musings written for my next post all about it – you can read it then and chuckle along with me 😀

Happy weekend everyone!
