Fem Ballerina Meets Quirky Lumberjack! The Bakersfield Fog!

I crossed my Fem Ballerina with her Rugged Side Kick today.  UPS delivered these Suede Booties last night.  I love them so much, I had to wear them today.

Normally I skip OOTD's on Tuesdays.  Everyone is usually engrossed in an Anthro Sale.  Including myself. But since there was none today, my plan worked out nicely.

Everyone should recognize the Maryam Tank by Little Blue Bird in SAND. I lost my patience a few weeks ago waiting for sale. What am I going to save?  At the most $30. IF ithe tank ever makes sale. Two colorways have already Sold Out.  I'm hoping Anthro will bless us with the Black version again. Pretty Please!

I was going for a style similar to the Anthro Outfit on the left.  I think I hit the mark in my own way.  I shopped my closet for the Maiden's Braids Cardi by Moth and the Cohort Corduroys in Lilac by Pilcro. I don't know what she's wearing on her feet.  And her pants may even be the the Cohort Corduroys. 
    

 

I imagined the Upended Ankle Boots by Boutique 9.  After all, those were the inspiration for putting the outfit together.

These boots are available in one size only. So, if you think you might want these boots on Pop Back and maybe even 2nd cut a few weeks down the road, I suggest adding them to your Wish List from HERE  right now.  The October Catalog has already been overwritten by February.  They might Pop Back to the Sale Section if a few pairs are returned.  But Anthro has been scatter brained about that in the past.  Although I have noticed lately they are starting to do this more often.  And you will have the Style Number if you decide to have CS search them in store.

Most days I don't need a coat during the Winter in California.  Not true today! So meet the Heron Basket Weave Jacket by Tracy Porter I picked up for $20 last year. Also Anthro's Kennett Gloves by Portolano and the 100% Cashmere Springing Scarf by Sayami.  Because not only is it cold, but the dreaded Valley Fog has rolled in this week.

I hope everyone on the East Coast is are safe and warm today!
