Hello my lovelies.
Today I give you a lady who lunched, and with a handbag!
I continue to up my dressing (IMHO) in baby steps. But a birthday lunch with a friend saw me escalating the ladder SEVERAL steps with blazer, posh pearly jumper, jewellery and a proper handbag! That’s FOUR whole rungs of that ladder!
And yes peeps, I finally withdrew momentarily from the security of the cross body. It’s an age thing.
When I was younger I partied till the cows came home with a handbag and it always returned home with me. These days an attached crossbody has a greater chance of making it home with this dizzy old pensioner. I’m comforted by its tethering. So being left in charge of a loose handbag was quite a risk!
Do YOU feel that way about handbags now that crossbodys have made it a doddle to get the bag safely home? Or is it just doddery old me?

Hubs was so impressed with my poshed up look that he said my next outing would probably be in a BALLGOWN!
Watch this space!
And here’s a summary of my dressing up journey to date.

I love a jeans and blazer combo, it's one I really need to wear more often! I really like your blazer and that bag is beautiful! I love all kinds of bags but crossbodies are my go to for sure, especially when I'm out with the kids!
ReplyDeleteHope that you are having a good weekend :)

Yes, the jeans and blazer looks fab on you - and I believe blazers are very on trend now. The pearly jumper is definitely 'dress-up' too. I'm a new convert to cross body bags and love them; I've re-donated most of my other handbags. I like having my hands free.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week - I wait to see the ballgown appear...
