I had to go to a Very Important Meeting yesterday. The sort of meeting that makes you nervous for several weeks/days in advance. The kind of meeting where the outcome is crucial. The sort of meeting where you need the boost from looking your best.

To help a beloved family member, I had to find all of my courage to leave the house and dig deep to support him. Yes, outfits are rather trivial in all of this, but giving some of my attention to the trivial helped. It really did.

I tried to make a collage from these items, but couldn’t get it to work, so I have simply uploaded the images. There isn’t a photo of me wearing this ensemble as I was shaking with nerves!

The outfit was based around my new Massaccesi handbag with its glorious Persian Green leather, plus matching bracelet. I chose navy clothing as a background: a v-neck jumper from WoolOvers and cord trousers from Lands’ End. My scarf was the beautiful Plumes en Fête by Hermes with its blue, green and purple shades. The shoes and jacket were also navy and I wore earrings in blue topaz.

Here is a larger image of the scarf:

And the outcome of the meeting? Positive 😁. Now we can have a rest and then face the future.

Happy weekend to you all!

Love and best wishes,

Anne
