Textured Monochrome Outfit

Textured Monochrome Outfit

As the storm clouds rolled in yesterday afternoon, I loaded my tired self into the car, Mr Suger and the camera by my side. After a quick change when I arrived home from work we planned to grab some photos on our way out. It was my second attempt to get photos of this jacket from Nyata that was sent as a thank you for my post a while ago featuring their range.

This look is half work styled outfit and half textured monochrome outfit thanks to the detail in the shirt and skirt. I’d worn the skirt earlier and decided that this jacket would be the perfect thing to spice things up. The crop design and sequin panel across the shoulders added some glam to the whole thing. Made it interesting, you know? So I tucked in the shirt, pulled on some booties to replace my sensible work heel and off we went.

Have I mentioned lately that I can’t wait for summer? Working until 5pm makes it ridiculously hard for us to grab outfit photos, and lately weekends have been a blur… Do you ever get so busy you don’t have ten minutes to spare on your way somewhere? Well, that has been us for the past few months. Stretched thin. Busy. But with the biggest wedding season of our lives behind us (we attended five this year!) we are ready to rest, recoup and welcome the long afternoons that summer brings.

We could probably be talked into an afternoon sesh at the pub too, just quietly. What about you?

This was always going to happen. Once I embraced the retro of fluro, the come back of plaid and the resurgence of the boyfriend jeans it was only a matter of time until someone said bodysuit and I said why not. First up I shimmied into one for Aussie Curves: Runway week. And what a show stopper THAT baby is. Then while visiting Mel’s treasure trove she mention oh so casually that she had a black, sheer, bodysuit I might like…

And HELLO SAILOR, I did like. I liked VERY much.

That baby came home with me and I began plotting and planning ways to wear it every single day. A little fancy, and booby, let’s face it, for the office. I knew I’d either want to dress it up with a killer skirt or dress it down with boyfriend jeans. You saw it on Wednesday with a soft skirt for a wedding. But I wanted something a little more versatile… Something I could wear traipsing about. Something a little more like this… (more…)
