Wide Angle

There are a couple of wide elements to this outfit.  The sweater is quite boxy and is shorter in the front and longer in the back, which is very forgiving (it’s also the sweater I wore when I met Alan Wilder).  The pants are an extreme palazzo style that I picked up at Miss Selfridge in London a few years ago.  I always have to wear them with flats because they just barely touch the ground when I’m not wearing any shoes.  It’s a completely easy outfit with a lot of flow to it, although not too much color.  Blacks, greys and silvers are my staples, as is my new asterisk ring.

Outfit – Cotton On sweater; Miss Selfridge pants; Calvin Klein sandals; Rebecca Minkoff purse; Michael Kors watch; Juicy Couture & Wendy Brandes rings

Coat of the Week: Minor Setback

As my husband and I were setting up for pictures of the first outfit for my “Coat of the Week” pictorial, we experienced a minor setback:  I broke my camera.  I was walking away from my husband while handing him the camera and didn’t realize that my hand was still in the strap.  Next thing I know…crash!  My little Canon Power Shot never stood a chance against that tough pavement.  We need to send it into the manufacturer to get it fixed.

We managed to get a picture before it completely stopped working.  Luckily for us, we have more than one working camera.  I’ll be using either a Pentax Optio 750Z or my husband’s Sony A (alpha) 350.

When at first you don’t succeed…try, try again!
