Monochrome Magic - Khaki

.Yesrerday I introduced you to the challenge I’m participating in this week.

Day 2 of the #monochromemagicme challenge saw me sporting khaki. .

I was determined to use this challenge to bring a few things out of the wardrobe that seldom see the light of day in retirement.  So today I gave some corporate wear an airing, which is good.

I pulled a khaki suit apart, using the skirt for the challenge and the rest of the three piece will be seen when I return to polychrome life.  I wore the suit loads BITD, but it still looks like new, which is also good. .

Adding a fine knit jumper and thick cardi casualed up the skirt, to make it wearable for today’s task, nipping to the post office for Christmas 🎄 card stamps #excitedforchristmas .

My all-khaki outfit:

Long new wool skirt, M&S, ca 2000

Jumper, H&M, same vintage 

Tyrolean-style cardi, Per Una, ca 2010

Thick rubbed scarf, Primark, 2017

I sneaked in brown boots and  necklace, I’m not sure if that will disqualify me from the challenge 😞 😢 

Boots, ca 2003, Gabor

Wooden necklace, gifted by my dear Dutch friend .
