Apparel Goddess Speaks

Ask and ye shall receive, the apparel goddess said. Apparently, my word-of-the-week,

Befurbelowed

brought a new skirt (and well, also a matching jacket) into my life.

I couldn’t believe my lucky lasso.

On the morning of my daughter’s b-day, we went out to breakfast together and then decided to hit our favorite consignment store. There she was, in broad daylight, saying, “MaryJane, here I am. I thought you’d never come.” A vintage skirt with real fur around the hem.

Fur below.

Now I am befurbelowed, properly, and ready again to light out for new territories.

    This is lovely. This must be the week for new outfits. My daughter in law brought me a box of new clothes from a yard sale yesterday and inside among other things there was a cranberry red corduroy jacket a cute black skirt with a kick pleated bottom and a pink shell top that are so cute. Can I say I looked cute in it at my age?

    This is one cool outfit!! …Does that jacket have red piping?

    • MaryJane says:

      Indeed it does! The jacket is new, purchased from a tiny downtown shop we are fortunate to have in our little town. But I couldn’t believe how well old and new matched up for this outift.

      • Amy Colburn says:

        It looks as if the whole outfit was simply made to go together! Some of it is luck – you finding these treasures – but some it is having the “eye” for details like you do. AND having a great sense of style that pulls it all together.

    ….”well I’ll be…..fur on a skirt-hem…..don’t that just beat all!/?”
    And it’s quite an ensemble too, I might add!
    Love the cute, new word…Befurbelowed! LOL
