Again the golden boots. This time dressed up with a classic black double breasted jacket by Pauw. A lovely brand with flipping expensive clothes. These last two years I didn’t buy very much from them. The black jacket is at least three years old and comes with trousers. The full suit is really for office wear only (see it here).
The jacket combined with skinny jeans is much nicer to me. A juxtaposition with styles and/or colours is a well-known way to create an interesting outfit. I learned both the word “juxtaposition” and how to achieve “this interest” while blogging the last two years.
I also learned (after I created this outfit) how to distract attention from a large bosom. Especially when you wear a top with a high neckline: create a V with a jacket. Hah… got that right by accident.
My dear husband didn’t feel like taking photos as he hadn’t prepared an artistic idea yet. However, I pleaded long enough and he said “alright, but under protest”. A white wall as background is not his idea of a good photo shoot. But I was wearing this outfit, the light was OK, we were both free, it wasn’t raining…. rather ideal circumstances. So a white wall it is…
Below: it wasn’t very warm though…. can you see my nose getting red?Below: my favourite pose. Wearing…. black Pauw jacket, skinny jeans by Denham, golden boots by Hoss as seen here and a black and blue body by Wolford (seen here in full). I know I cannot wear this body without properly covering my lumps and bumps and this jacket provides just that coverage. Finally found a use for that black and blue thing. Below: not bad from the side… in my opinion.Below: and not bad from the back either. My, my… this outfit gets an 8-star rating from me. I very much love an outfit which gives the impression I have a perfect figure haha. Who doesn’t?Below: a close-up of the boots. They are soooo comfortable. So this is an outfit which creates the image of a good figure and I can wear flat shoes with it and walk for miles. What a winner. The boots will not be everybody’s taste, but they certainly are my taste (and the taste of a lot of readers as I found out with the first post about these boots. Surprise, surprise… Or are you all lying through your teeth? LOL). More lovely shoes at Glenda’s So What to Twenty.

PS If you want to find your own unique style, I can highly recommend this fabulous Style Course of 40+Style which is about to begin: 21 steps to a more stylish you.
The jeans are gorgeous, fits so well and that means a keeper. I can see a bit of equestrian vibe in this outfit, must e the jacket and boots. Very nicely done, Greetje!
Thank you very much Mrs C. I was quite proud of myself (even though it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to come up with this haha).
This is the outfit I like to see on you. It is sporty and chique at the same time. You really have a great butt in those jeans. Love the turlleneck on you and off course my favourite boots. This is a winner and it makes you look years younger. How about that.
I say, this is definitely a winner outfit. It might even deserve a 10.
Perfect outfit for you Greetje. Love the casual with the chic. I actually think the photos came out really well!
Thanks so much for bringing my style course to the attention of your readers 🙂
Well, I hope I have a few readers who aren’t your readers too. LOL
This is the kind of outfits that I love it!!! yes, comfy, nice and stylish! I really like and I love this golden boots!
MYEMPTYBAG
I knew you would like it. I am so pleased with it myself.
That jacket is a fabulous fit…it looks so good on you!
When evening falls and dinner is finished… th jacket is getting a bit tight around the stomach….
Okay, that’s a fine outfit for showing off your great sassy butt (ha!) especially in your profile shot. I like the pointing shot because it’s unexpected. Yes, I can really see you on a jaunty walk in this, swinging that bag with those gold boots. The suit looks expensive and finely cut. I’m glad Ron decided to join in – the white wall came out great.
I know, I was pleased with this white wall too. It doesn’t always have to be complicated. And thanks for the compliments. Rather chuffed myself.
Perfect silhouette, dear! Beautiful jacket! Its classic style is very well balanced with the modern line of the big pockets. It would be interesting to see the full suit… the skinnies and boots complete the look adding a very contemporary toucht and they are … soooo you!.
There is a link in this post to a previous post where you can see the whole suit….
I have just seen the full suit: it is very classic, now I am wondering how would it look with the golden boots, black and blue body and blue bag…? 🙂
p.s.
last time I didn’t noticed the link, but , as you know , my eyes leave much to be desired
Just to let you know, yesterday I tried some glasses on … of course only to see how my sight could improve!!
Yes dear, we all have to wear glasses, sooner or later. I am just lucky I have always worn lenses. Now I have lenses with a reading part. Pretending I am 10 years younger LOL.
This jacket is a treasure, it fits you so well, and whatever it cost, it is worth it!
It gives this outfit a polished look, and I love the striped t.neck underneath, Yes, your long legs and narrow hips were built for skinnies!!!
Again, classic. THEN, you threw in the golden boots and ramped up your game.
LOVE it Greetje!

Ah, thanks Elle. I love it too.
Ah….I knew you would look fabulous in jeans! These are beauties…I love the faded look…unfortunately something that I haven’t been able to replicate on my new-mades.
Now, the turtleneck! I thought I recalled you saying that you rarely wore this neckline; but you’ve got all the elements exactly right with this outfit in my humble opinion. You look awesome!
Um….I’m one of the ones that likes these boots, LOL!
I do rarely wear this neckline. I have three bodies (as we call them, sort of swimsuits with buttons at the bottom): a black one and two stiped ones: this blue/black one and one in black and white. That is it. And I hardly wear them. Don’t know what came over me to get this one out of the closet, but I got it right (I think). “Getting better all the time… getting better all the time…. (sing along if you want).”
Now this is my kind of outfit, one I would put on to go anywhere and everywhere. You look model perfect today! Those booties look fabulous with your skinnies and that stripe sweater is perfectly stated under your classic blazer. All I can say, is WOW! Love this look.
Yep, I am very content with the outfit and myself haha. Thought of this one all by myself. Not that it is rocket science, but still…
Oooh love that Pauw blazer. I drool over their clothes every time
I shop Amsterdam, but have never bought anything there. I find more affordable beauties at Claudia Strater, Cora Kemperman and Vanilia
Yes, as I said, they are ridiculously expensive. They usually have an early sale though. Next time you are in Amsterdam, give me a shout, will you?
Hey now Ms. Greetje, looking ever so polished in your fitted blazer and then a spice of the unexpected on the feet. Conservative with a wink. That’s the way to do it 😉
Great praise from a stylish lady like you. Thank you.
Wow, looking great! I think the boots are nice, a black pair with the same outfit would look great, too. You always look great in jeans, but you never seem to show your bum, it’s always covered by a long top. Any reason why? It looks like it could be shown off. Do you ever try Levi’s jeans, or Guess?
I love jeans by Denham and 7 For All Mankind. They give me a great bum. And the reason why I never show it is because I have a scrawny little bum, small hips, not much waist and a tummy. So that part of me is usually cleverly covered to make people believe I am perfect haha (NOT). Just emphazising the good parts and hiding the lesser parts. Which is the trick for everbody. I have tried Levi’s but not the recent ones, neither have I tried Guess. Nevertheless I have quite a few pairs.
Indeed a good look and silhouette, Greetje.
Although dark-blue and navy-blue are supposedly the perfect colors for me, I tend to find it a very conservative, bit boring color.
But the way you combined and styled it, it results in just the level of ‘classic’ that I can handle and appreciate. Well done!
Praise from you is highly appreciated by me! Thank you.
Those boots look surprisingly good … where did you get them?
From Hoss Intropia. It is a Swedish brand. They weren’t cheap but I got them in the sale.
This outfit is really lovely! I like how classy it is and the boots give it just the right amount of pizzaz!

I am so pleased about the outfit myself. Especially because this time I thought of it myself. I am not the best stylist, just very very interested.
Loving your metallic boots! Very nice with your double breasted blazer and jeans – great look!
Thank you for linking up with Shoe and Tell on Style Nudge!!

Thank you Cherie. I am very pleased with them myself.
These jeans are amazing on you. I am not fan of these boots for myself but they do look great as a statement piece to this outfit. And when you have shoes that you can walk around all day – they really are perfect!

Thanks for the honest feedback. Much appreciated. The fact that I can run around in them all day makes them even more attractive to me. But ai will admit, I love the sight as much haha.
You do look fabulous in this outfit. Rockin’ body lady!

Hè hè hè. I love it when a plan comes together (after the A-team… Before your time).
