In search of the purrfect halloween partay

 
Military coats, understated or not, really bring out my inner high-brow bitch. It was cold enough that day to warrant a green cashmere sweater, and just the edges of its sleeves poking out served as accessories.

 
Brightly colored coats break the gloomy fall mood. Paired up with unusually unmatchy bags and scarves, they draw the eye.

Friday morning hangover

Raincoats and boots are some of those pieces that I favor to the point where it seems like a good idea to wear them every day. To every occasion. Preferably for 5 years, at least. I'm one of those people who does not enjoy new clothes nearly as much as old faithfuls.
 
Sis took out her grey worker's uniform dress. Plain and classic, it really stands out when paired with a period hairdo. Also, really comfy.

La mall

 
Bring me those rainy days! Nothing better than a comfy cardigan layered over a cotton tshirt. I love bright scarves, they really set off an outfit.

Rainy octomber evening

Break out those trusty brown leather boots and thick tights, it's getting cold out. The time of year when I get to wear fancy hats.
 
Layers and scarves, headbands and brooches, my sis has fall style down phat.

Jazzy night out

Going out for some wine and live jazz in a local coffee shop. There's no entry charge, but then again, a glass of wine costs 9 lei, that's over 2 euro. Table wine. Seriously? At least the music's good, covers of the old-timely divas. 

 
Iri's wearing a slinky silk blouse with her black skinny jeans. It's kind of a classy casual, and so easy. Her vintage handbag's a real gem, too.


I went for all-out casual with a cardigan, vintage skirt and comfy oxfords. Polished it off with a scarf and brooch, so it won't look too out of place in a cafe at night.

Crisp autumn day

Iri's wearing her trusty leather to ward off this chill. She likes to brighten the look with a cute t-shirt and  those sporty red ballerinas, though complaints abut her short, heel-less self will follow throughout the day . The white belt and blue-green scarf are there to break that monotone red-and-black.


No school like old school. Vintage wool schoolteacher-skirt paired with blue cardigan and rose-patterned scarf. I layer hose for warmth.
