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.

Jazz bar

The old leather jacket Iri had dyed a dark brown now gets its moment in the spotlight, on top of that pale pink cocktail dress. Her dark plum lipstick and silver necklace, along with the reddish nail polish, keep this look from slipping into punk princess territory. We leave that for the teens to explore, and ours are the adult playgrounds.

Again, I end up looking casual next to my sister. That particular color on my thin, cotton dress had to be broken up with some teal, else it threatened to induce nausea. A challenge keeps things interesting, so I got it for cheaps and took it out for some wine.
