I bought this raincoat at a very reduced price because its belt was missing.
It didn' t represent a big problem to me since I own many...
I found one in the bottom of my closet which is like the inside part of my bag!
( it's something that always surprises me when I find the exact thing I need and I didn't remember to have! )
What a pity it is not well visible in the photo!
The day before yesterday we had the perfect weather for wearing a raincoat
Tod's
Being a key piece for spring , you can see many on the pages of magazines.
Do you prefer a classic piece in a neutral tone or have you got one in a different and unusual style ?
Nothing special for me underneath. I matched black and blue.
Old rules say no to the combination and many people find it is not a good one, but I like it.
( besides, if Armani uses it so often...why shouldn't I??? )

Copper earrings with blue gemstones
Have you noticed? I made a not matching pair this time!
Why not? It could become a new trend before long ...
You can never know!
Buon giorno Dan
ReplyDeleteLove the length of your trousers, they look so chic but I think one needs good ankles to compliment this look...something I don't have! As for the mac, yours would go with just about anything. Yes! Go for the odd earrings look, it's fabulous, I've seen women with just one earring also. Have a good week XX
I prefer a neutral coloured raincoat for the reason that you said...I can wear any colour underneath and it...always works! ( A way to save time when I get ready for going to work in the morning)
DeleteHow fun that your earrings are different, Dan!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm a huge fan of using a different belt for the coat! I need to remember that more often!

Fashion is fun, isn't it? :-)
DeleteI tried to style the raincoat also with a colourful silk scarf: not bad at all ...
How surprising to wear two different earrings! I will remember that! I wear black and Blue many times, rules or no rules. And I love a rain coat like that and I also love them best in that neutral color...But the color looks awfull on me! But good on you!
ReplyDeleteI prefer different but in some way matching earrings at the moment...I am a modern lady after all!!! :-)
DeleteToday is the first spring day but sunshine is not again with us everyday! Raincoat is still necessary! Your style is perfect, especially with high heels.
ReplyDeleteDAN
Happy first spring day! Let's hope that the sun will be stay longer soon in your part of the world...
DeleteYou look really beautiful! I love your outfit, your photos are lovely and your dog is really cute! :)
ReplyDeleteHi, Linda! Many thanks for commenting !
DeleteMy dog is a real little scamp!!! :-)
I get the idea although the pictures of the inside of your bag and the belt are vague. Sort of snake skin? I think it looks very good. Probably better than the original belt. Lucky you to get it at a very reduced price. I see you combined your rope handles with the new white bag now? Also nice.
ReplyDeleteYour shoes match with the belt, the bag and your blue/black outfit. Those shoes were well worth their money. I think you look lovely. Fine jewellery you made too. I will keep an eye on the jewellery shops to see whether they have picked up your trend. 😘

Ha ha ... you can never know about trends!
DeleteThe white bag has a closure with zip fastener in an animalier print fabric. Can have a better view of it in the previous post...
Love the idea of the two different but somehow matching earrings. Of course, black and blue are very chic together! I have two trenchcoats, a neutral one like yours and a shorter green one. xxx
ReplyDeleteTo be honest...I first made the oval shaped earring . Since it took me quite a long time, I decided for an odd but pairing earring which I very quickly made!
DeleteA good raincoat is essential in the UK - it seems to rain most days!
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing wrong with your black and blue combination either.
A raincoat is a very basic piece! I have more than one, for staying on the safe side!! :-)
DeleteI love the combination of black and blue. It is so elegant. Your raincoat is very classy and looks perfect.

Hurray! I found many fans of black and white!!
DeleteGreat minds always think alike ... :-)
I never understood why blue-black combination was considered bad. I like it...Beautiful jewelry you're wearing today (well, actually not only today but always).
ReplyDeleteYou are right, Olga! In my opinion too there is nothing wrong with a black and blue outfit ...
DeleteSo many beautiful photos of you looking so stylish and pretty
ReplyDeleteMany thanks, dear!
ReplyDeletei adore your smile and style;) U are really pretty woman with class:) follow U on bloger and google plus;) hope U follow back:)
ReplyDeleteHi, Kathy! Many thanks for commenting...
DeleteDan,
ReplyDeleteI often use a better belt than what is provided with the coat. It is a bit of a hassle, but the look is great, so I applaud this look. I am also a big fan of black and blue, and love your earrings!

A not matching pair of earrings was something which was missing in my jewelry box! :-)
DeleteWhat a great idea, you have so many options by wearing it this way!
ReplyDeleteRight, dearest! It means extra ways to mix and match ...
DeleteAmazing and chic, Dan!
ReplyDeleteDefferent earrings are great idea!!
