Raincoat and ... a new trend! ( but not sure)


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??? )

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!

    Love 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

    1. 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)

  2. How fun that your earrings are different, Dan!!
    And I'm a huge fan of using a different belt for the coat! I need to remember that more often!

    1. Fashion is fun, isn't it? :-)

      I tried to style the raincoat also with a colourful silk scarf: not bad at all ...

  3. 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!

  4. Today 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.

  6. 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.
    Your 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. 😘

    1. Ha ha ... you can never know about trends!

      The white bag has a closure with zip fastener in an animalier print fabric. Can have a better view of it in the previous post...

  7. 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

    1. To 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!

  8. A good raincoat is essential in the UK - it seems to rain most days!

    There is nothing wrong with your black and blue combination either.

  10. 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).

  13. Dan,
    I 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!
