Visible Monday

This necklace is made from brass and recycled bottle glass. I bought it from the Joliba Trust, a charity that works  to create sustainable development in the rural communities of Mali.
It is the most visible item that I am wearing for Not Dead Yet Style on Visible Monday. 

Everything else is rather subdued. The green shirt is an old Fenn Wright and Manson, a mixture of silk and viscose. It isn't an especially warm fabric, so underneath I'm wearing a Gap vest and a long sleeved tee. (Not visible!)
The black cropped trousers are fine wool and the lace-up boots from Clarks, over cozy socks, are fleece lined.

February in Britain is definitely dress for warmth month!

    1. Hello Patti, yes, I'll be back, although Mondays are about the worst day for me for visible dressing as it's all about clearing up after the weekend - invisible Monday might be more appropriate!

    1. I prefer shorter necklaces than this one but I've learnt not to lean forward and clunk things whilst wearing it!

    You know my thoughts by now – how I admire your haircut, it is so attractive and a great eyecatcher.
