Oh weekends my favourite little suckers. How I adore you. I adore that I can skip the heels if I want to, dress down when I want, and generally just be lazy. Ahhh lazy. My favourite past-time on weekends. Give me movies, somewhere comfy to sit and I’m all set. This outfit is one I’ve worn to work before {ironed} with a little more emphasis on hair and make-up. It works in all arenas because let’s face it, navy, cream and tan is a classic combo.
Navy and tan, how I love thee, let me count the ways…
Or not. Whatever. But suffice to say that I am a big fan of this colour combination. The only issue I have is that I can never EVER find a decent pair of shoes in a matching navy. I’ve looked. Once I thought I had found the only to find that once outside the shoes were sort of a blue toned black. Sigh. Navy shoes would complete me. Hook me up if you find any would you please.
Until then, let’s have a little chuckle at my lazy Sunday self.

Oh dear Lord, someone buy this girl an iron. Or better yet, volunteer to iron her shirts.Â
Hi! I’m Suger; Chief Blogger at Suger Coat It. Blogging since 1901; love a casual ootd, taking photos + writing about things that irk or inspire me. I love wine and cheese, long days at the beach and spending time with my family. I make stuff for the internet; photos, create content, write copy and devise social media plans for personal brands, small businesses and bloggers. You know, living the sweet life.
Love the color combo! You know, I´ve never worn a pencil skirt, always thought it´d show my tummy in the worst way. But it actually looks so good on you that I think I´m gonna try one on next time I go shopping
Me too! the best. Do it, I wear one most days of the week. My tip is if it’s grabbing your stomach in a way that makes you uncomfortable, go up a size if you can. It’ll streamline the look and break you into the whole look. Then watch out, you’ll wear them ALL the time. Haha.
Why not rock a gorgeous pair of tan shoes instead of navy? Regardless, I love the outfit and I would definitely wear it myself. Unironed, because this girl does not iron unless its absolutely necessary!
I have tan flats and some strappy sandals. Neither really work that well for my office. But I LOVE them with this outfit. And haha, kindred spirits, the HATE the iron. But I love crisp looking garments. It’s my cross to bear. 😉
this is going to sound creepy – but have you changed your skin care routine lately? cause you have been GLOWING in the last couple of weeks. Your skin looks so happy!
Oh hey there creeper. Haha. I have been doing three things, running more {= more sweat}, drinking loads of green juices {which totally helps I think} and I’m making sure I completely remove all my makeup at night {a quick face wash in the shower and a wipe with a facial wipe before bed}. So yes, thanks for noticing!
Ahaha, actually, I was thinking the same thing recently!!
Thank you Nat. See below. 😉
I’ve had a look around for the answer on your blog but couldn’t find anything. I just wanted to know is there any reason why your blog is called “Suger Coat It” rather than “Sugar Coat It”? Just curious 🙂
When I started this blog I spelt it wrong, by the time I realised, I liked the name too much to change it all together and sugar coat it was taken. Since then Suger’s sort of become my nickname. Weird, but that’s my story. Haha.
