Jan 27- casual friday

This is my 'go-to' casual style at both work and home... A simple sweater and fabulous skirt. I love the Japanese inspired print on this skirt. And, of course, a Velvet Otterhound necklace.

The beginning

I am a female dandy. It's true.
I am a fabric whore.
I wear what makes me happy.
I have an average salary and work in an average office.
I often shop at thrift stores and consignment shops.
I am not a mall shopper or magazine 'trend' reader.
This is a collection of outfits and inspiration.
Enjoy!
