Olive consignment utility pants, black tee and knit jacket. How did I do? I felt good in this outfit at the Farmers Market, eating lunch at a casual place and at a plant nursery. The bag (3/5) is fairly new, handmade of bison hide bought at a craft fair.

The little bit of leg and the metallic accents keep this light and summery! Love this. Wish I had some utility crops to copy you!

Kellygirl has said it perfectly - you rock this look and I love your new bag - such a versatile colour. You get extra bonus points for buying it at an art fair, it is great to support a local artisan.

Thank you all. I am glad the outfit is getting thumbs up because I felt good wearing it. The bag has a cleaver design so that it can be worn as a backpack or front pack, hands free.

Thank you, Angie, I like the glitz too. I can’t help myself, even adding it to a utilitarian outfit :)

Love it! -

Celia, you are right. We older “invisible” women, need all the glitz and light we can manage.

I don’t want to shock you Joy but I very much doubt that you are doing much of a job at staying invisible if that’s your aim.Fab look,as others have said ,a nice splicing of utility with glamour.

Thank you, Cardiff girl, for your kind words. Karen, I can’t wait to use the word “blingtastic”. Thank you, Texstyle. You are a sweetheart.

Becky I usually end up wearing something thrifted or from consignment daily. The EF sweater is also from a consignment store. Oops, wrong thread.
