It's Lacroix, Sweetie

Tin't resist an AbFab reference if it'due south there for the taking!

This blazer was my amazing find from the vintage off-white in Exeter I went to the other weekend *cue smug sighing*

So yes, I am the proud owner of a Christian Lacroix blazer. Information technology'south just from his Bazar diffusion line (I know I shouldn't say only), but very sensibly my caput says "long-term investment" while my heart says "love affair". I was admiring it with absolutely no intention of ownership when I thought I'd try it on just to run across what information technology was similar… and information technology fit similar a glove. Although I'm no expert when information technology comes to buying designer and I don't have a clue how onetime it is (Bazar was launched 17 years agone, so no older than that), to me it was a full bargain. And so that was information technology, sold.

What makes me laugh is that I totally retrieve it'southward a ladies-who-lunch type of blazer – I'm soooooo non a lady-who-lunches type at all. At all 🙂

I also honey my brooch, which is (cocky) made very but from three buttons glued on summit of each other, with a brooch pin on the back. I pinned it to what is actually the belt of the blouse worn as a matching necktie… the blouse is a wrapover way and a little on the boobylicious side; the necktie hides the gratis cleavage. Equally Patsy would take said: Fabulous, darling.
