I wore this outfit to celebrate our wedding anniversary when we went out for sushi last week…. I have mixed feelings about this outfit however (hear me out)!
I do love it for its sartorial merits, but on the other hand it reminds me of how much I ate and how full I was afterwards – to the point of feeling ill. It was my own fault, I know, but when all those tasty little dishes are going round on the conveyor belt and you keep seeing more and more that you want to try, then my eyes get seriously bigger than my belly.
Actually that’s not true – the resulting food baby was mahoosive. The size of Wales in fact. Serves me right for being such a gannet ๐
But clothes-wise, I’m still in love with my new-this-winter fur/leather/tweed coat, and I do love the statement necklace under the floral shirt collar – together they make a basic, thrifted men’s sweater look extra special. And I’m glad I wore stretchy pants.
Happy Tuesday everyone, hope you’re all well!

I love the way you styled the necklace! Beautiful!
I love EVERYTHING about this outfit, though I doubt I could walk in those shoes. Gorgeous!
Sushi is always the one food that I get so stuffed on! But it's so good though, isn't it? ๐ I love that fur coat and your bag is so cute! I love the little detail. <3

Ah, the generosity of the stretchy pant. No matter, you look lovely in these photos. I am particularly intrigued by your beautiful necklace.
We've got sushi bars/restaurants on almost every corner in Vancouver, and I find the more often I eat sushi, the less inclined I am to overeat. That may not make sense, but it seems to be my reality.

Very cute for date night! That double collar looks very fun and refreshing, too!

What a glorious necklace, Catherine, love! I have never seen sushi on a conveyor — that *would* be too tempting for me to resist : >
yay for date nights and overeating (happy anniversary by the way :)!! I love the coat as well and that statement necklace……I can't wait to see more of it!!

Aww thank you Brooke sweetie :)))
I love the necklace/collar combo! Very eye-catching.
And I've been there with sushi – when we go out to one of the places with a conveyor belt, I always overeat ๐
You have a great eye for color ๐
