There is a joke about being a copycat between my friend Greetje of No Fear of Fashion and me
When she gets inspired to one of my outfit she calls herself a copycat,
but I think that we inspire each other ...
In any case today the copycat it's me!
What do I mean?
Look at my skirt ... many of you saw the same on her!
She bought her skirt last year in Turin . I bought mine last week.
But, can a sensible woman resist to buy an extraordinary beautiful item at an extraordinary reduced price ?
That woman hasn't got my name!
The skirt is by Max Mara and has a delicate cream colour which I matched to a burgundy long blouse underneath a bi-colour viscose sweater ( plus one of my bags in a similar tone )
While I was shooting the other day after a whole week of rain
Something attracted my attention ...
A drone was flying right above me and a man looked very concentrated in driving it here and there , up and down .
I thought that men are funny guys!
And find peculiar ways to enjoy a Sunday morning ...
... of course he probably thought the same of me, while I was trying to get good photos of my skirt!
P.s.
Do you happen to be inspired by someone you know ?
You look so classy. Love the skirt and bag! Have a great week! xx
ReplyDeleteMany thanks!
DeleteCopycat or not, what a lovely skirt. Of course you had to buy it. I love how you combined it with burgundy. That bag is to die for, by the way. I sometimes get inspired by other bloggers too. You sometimes need a little push to wear a certain item, don't you? I'm sure Greetje doesn't mind at all. xxx
ReplyDeleteI like when bloggers from different countries inspire each other...
DeleteI love how the colors support each other. That's a cute look Dan!

Yes, cream colour plus burgundy is a good combination...
DeleteI don't call it copying per se---it's really sharing our good ideas!!
ReplyDeleteAnd especially economical when you can get the same item on sale!
You look fabulous, Dan!
And I had to laugh at the drone---boys and their toys. But then again women and their clothes, right?

Sharing good ideas on the Web is a good point of view!

I love your plaid coat! Very pretty and nice change of pace.

The coat is old but it was a great purchase. The only bad side is that I can' t wear it if temperatures are too low ... it is a coat for transition seasons ...
DeleteI can see why you had to have this skirt , it suits you so well and is such a classic style . Love it with the burgundy shirt and your great bag.
ReplyDeleteThe drone made me smile, boys at play.
The skirt has a classic style and a modern fabric ... very comfortable!
DeleteHah!! I think that was very wise of you to buy it. It is indeed a lovely skirt. And it is not that we hang out together all the time, so what if we share a few items haha. I copied your boots first.
ReplyDeleteThe bi-colour sweater (lovely) is really nice on the skirt. Especially with that transparant burgundy blouse underneath it. Hmmm... camel-cream with burgundy... hmmm what have I got in my closet?? haha. You inspire me again.

PS your shape of Obag is better with fur than mine. The fur goes up a bit at the sides, making the bag look like a boat (??)
It's a beautiful skirt, and it makes sense that you got it, especially if it was a good deal! I love the skirt paired with the two colored top. The burgundy looks lovely with cream. And how gorgeous is your bag! Fabulous coat, too. As you can see, I love EVERYTHING about your outfit.

I love the skirt and it is a fabulous fashion staple! No wonder both you and Greetje were drawn to it.
ReplyDeleteI love the way you layered it with the different textures, and that the burgundy layer is so filmy and soft.
Drones,, eek! And that bag!! :)

Oh yes, the skirt is beautiful. It is faux leather but very soft and the pale cream colour is easy to match ...
DeleteYou've got some lovely outfits, like the pleated skirt. Nice to link up with you. Jacqui

DeleteVery pretty outfit, especially that skirt. You can just that both you and Greetje have impeccable taste!
ReplyDeleteLaughing at the drone, men!
Men are ununderstandable guys!!! :-)
