Cream A line skirt with eye blouse (8 van 11)One freezing Sunday, husband Ron offered to take outfit photos of this cream A-line skirt. He had installed a new app which predicted pretty accurately when it would rain and when the rain would stop. There was a rain-free window between 11.30 and 12.10…..We hurried to the little courtyard with almshouses which he had selected as background. (See more about almshouses in Haarlem.) Rain was a worrying thing but  there was also the temperature to deal with.  It was only 1 or 2 degrees Celcius (34 Fahrenheit). At least there was no wind in the courtyard.

Below: these are the almshouses, overlooking a communal garden. See that person with the umbrella? That is me just before we were leaving. Ron’s app is indeed very accurate: 12.10 sharp it started to rain.Cream A line skirt with eye blouse (11 van 11)Below: cold or not, photos had to be taken without a coat.Black Max Mara coat (1 van 1)Below: oh dear, oh dear… Cream A line skirt with eye blouse (2 van 11)Below: not really very elegant…Cream A line skirt with eye blouse (3 van 11)I have featured this “eye shirt” once before on the blog.

No idea what that is for, but it is probably for a clever reason.Cream A line skirt with eye blouse (6 van 11)Below: one last shot. I knotted the shirt to give the outfit a more casual look (I got inspired by Annette (Lady of Style) in this post. Her outfit reminded me of “elegant combined with casual gives a nice balance”. And Annette also showed the knotted shirt a couple of times. Cream A line skirt with eye blouse (7 van 11)Below: Ron caught a rainbow on our way out.
