I don’t often wear trousers for special occasions, but these navy and green printed velvet trousers are among my favourites. They were from Boden a few years ago. They have the added bonus that they look fabulous with my green glitter platform sandals; I want to wear the latter as often as I can. You may have realised that by now.
The *navy satin blouse is new this season from Boden; (now reduced in the sale), while the blue and the statement necklace and multi-coloured glitter clutch were from Boden several years ago. I always enjoy wearing the necklace. The colour combination is gorgeous and it really does elevate the outfit. The green stone earrings and ring are both gifts from Ian.
I wore this outfit for dinner and cocktails with Ian and his children at Lola Jeans in Tynemouth.
Please forgive the heavily-edited photographs. Yellow artificial light and a lot of shadows made for rather unattractive images. I reduced the colour temperature and edited the light which makes it look a little like I’m superimposed on the background.
