WIW: Old Favourites

Nothing new in this outfit except the watch. Paired a black pencil skirt with black tank and then topped it with my animal print cardigan that I bought last year. I chose my Doc Marcie's for footwear and then added my red quilted handbag for some colour and texture. Jewelry is my rose gold/black watch and gold wedding band.

Boring or fine? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.

Cardigan: Lord & Taylor
Tank and skirt: Cleo Petite
Boots: Doc Martens
Handbag: Nine West (thrifted)
Watch: Fossil (eBay)

    Not boring at all.  How can animal print with red accents ever be boring?  I like the black column with the great detail and pop of color on you.  Another great outfit Shannon.  You are on a roll this week.

    An oldie but a goodie

    I think this is great! I think Doc Martens + animal print+ bright bag= interesting and edgy outfit. With the black sleeves on the cardigan, I initially thought it was a vest and was wondering how on earth an animal print vest could ever be boring!

    Gorgeous. I love how that sweater is colourblocked.

  • Suz replied 10 years ago

    Super fab - I love that sweater every time I see it!! You are adorable.

    Boring?  Never!  You've taken the ladylike formula of pencil, pumps and cardi, and swapped for some animal print and refined stompy boots to keep it fresh.  An absolute do!

    Whew...relief! Glad this isn't dull 'cause I still love this cardigan.

    Beth Ann - I never thought about it like that before - that this is a ladylike formula but done my way. Thanks for the insight!

    i can say - you look fab! those DMs are amazing on that skirt. the outfit simply is great that it makes you look taller too!

    That's a cardigan?  At first, I thought it was a vest, with the black sleeves.  Very cool and clever little animal piece!  I share Dianthus and Beth Ann's observations.  This IS the Transcona Shannon way.

  • kellygirl replied 10 years ago

    This could never be boring. You look chic, Shannon! I love it.

  • MsMary replied 10 years ago

    I think it's great!  The red bag and edgy shoes make it super interesting!

  • Neel replied 10 years ago

    Love the cardigan!  The red quilted bag is a great addition to the outfit (I am a sucker for colors and animal print!)

    The boots give an unexpected touch to the entire outfit!  Brilliantly executed I say!

    Looks fine and dandy to me! BTW I'm wearing my animal print cardigan today that you inspired me to get a few months back :)

    How could it be boring with an animal print cardigan?  You look great and this is an outfit I would love to copy (except I don't own an animal print sweater).

  • catgirl replied 10 years ago

    Not boring at all! And it is okay to post outfits where nothing is new - in fact, I find that inspiring!

  • Debra replied 10 years ago

    What a cute little outfit, this is one I can copy :) and will do very soon, thanks for the inspiration :)
    Love those boots .....

  • celia replied 10 years ago

    Your closet reached perfection. You just trow 'any old thing' and look perfect.
    (I am turning green with envy...)

    NOT boring & more than fine - YLB.

  • Deborah replied 10 years ago

    Never boring, you "edgy sophisticate" :)  Im feeling "wordy" this morning.

  • Transcona Shannon replied 10 years ago

    Vicki - the fact that the cardigan looks like a vest is one of the things that attracted me to it.

    Diane - yay for animal print cardis!

    Una - I love seeing outfits with items we've seen before too cause we all can't have new all the time!

    Celia - it's getting there.

    Deb - love that description.

    Thanks everyone :)

    You look sooooo good here Shannon. Love this!

  • JulieJohn replied 10 years ago

    Dude! I want to be this boring someday.

  • Reneeb replied 10 years ago

    Nothing boring about that outfit. It is a bit edgy to me with the Doc Martens and animal print. You always inspire me being a petite fit myself. Looking great.

  • MsLuna replied 10 years ago

    I love the mix of leopard and red! Love the outfit!

  • Karie replied 10 years ago

    Your outfits could never be boring. The animal print, the skirt, the Doc's, are all gorgeous!

  • qfbrenda replied 10 years ago

    Oh, very nice.  I think I need to copy this one.
