When I’m out shopping, there’s plenty of items I can just walk right past . . .
But, when it comes to TWEED . . .
that’s just down right hard for me to ignore.
Especially when I can see it has so much potential.
Like this little TWEED skirt . . .
Put on some suede heels . . .
A fancy little cami, statement necklace, and my gold hue blazer . . .
And there you go.
OR
I could trade in the heels for
my school-girl oxfords . . .
paired with a buttoned down pinstripe and old fashion cardigan . . .
And look what happened . . .
OR
better yet . . .
how about we grab those sturdy fun run around boots
a denim shirt and pull over sweater (with another statement necklace) . . .
And I’m telling you this skirt can take me anywhere . . .
Even when the weather turns a bit chilly
I’ll just throw on an extra layer with a vest, hat and scarf . . .
So when it comes to TWEED . . .
I think I’ll stick with,
YES PLEASE !
AS ALWAYS MY FRIENDS, THANKS FOR DROPPING BY, HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY.
HOW MANY OF YOU ARE SAYING YES TO TWEED?
I’m heading over to Monday Bloom with Elena (maybe I can find some my tweed loving gals).

Wonderful, versatile skirt, Trina. All these looks are great!

Thank you Patti, it always makes you feel better when you discover how versalite an item can by.
Rebecca says
You put together some great outfits with this tweed skirt. You look terrific in each one!
trinagrandinetti says
Thank you Rebecca, and thanks for dropping by today. By the way, do you have a blog? i can’t seem to find it if you do and would love to come and visit you.

Terrific, great, wow. All your creations are super. Do I like tweed? After I have seen what you did with it, I would say yes. But it is wool and that itches. (It does with me.) Then again, a skirt will probably not bother me.
I adore your shoes and boots. Big WANT. And of course your necklaces. They are my signature. Soulmate.

You, me, shoes and necklaces; see we do have a lot in common. Your new bag is on my Big Want list right now.
nofearoffashion says
My little resin bag? You will have the same impossible quest as I have with finding a similar hat box bag in leopard like Elle has.
And yes I believe you and I have a lot in common indeed. Are you already saving up to come to Amsterdam? LOL

Thank you Alice, the last necklace was purchased at anthropology (if you really want one). The first one was a vintage find at an antique store, love those kind of finds.
Ann says
I love your tweed skirt and you have styled it beautifully as always. Now the suede tie shoe……you are tickling my fancy with this one! I’m crazy for a shoe of this color. I would so buy these. You do look good with the coat over the shoulders here. Wish I could do this but it just to cold now. Beautiful set of outfits and tweed is on my radar. You are inspiring me.

That you so much Ann, love to give back to you in some form of inspiration since I take so much from you.
Lady of Style says

Love the tweed skirts, yours is beautiful, and is great with the golden blazer, and also in the striped shirt. I love your necklaces and also your boots. This skirt is wonderful and goes with almost everything.
trinagrandinetti says
It was a total surprise to me to find how versatile this little skirt has been. My true favorite is also with the gold blazer.
fashionovafifty says
such a pretty tweed! And I love the shoes in the first pic; it adds a little funk. I am not drawn to tweed as a rule, but sometimes it does call my name. I’ve seen some interesting pairings this season too. xoxo
trinagrandinetti says
One thing I will say about tweed, as much as I do love it, too much of a good thing is sometimes not all that good. I think one or two classic items of tweed can carry you for a looooong time.
Jessica says
Love all of your great tweed inspired outfits and the green suede shoes — so want them!
trinagrandinetti says
Thank you Jessica, isn’t it amazing how a pair of crazy shoes can make an outfit? Gotta love them shoes.
Kristian says
Hmmm, I really love all three of these remixes (and pieces you can use in endless combos are the best!). The golden blazer was so unexpected, the blue striped shirt so classic and the sweater over the collared shirt is also just something that is timelessly great to wear!
