Dress Of The Day with Angela

Angela Lansbury wearing Indigo Moon large jacket over a small skirt suit. Selfie. Perfection. Wrapped in a cocoon of warm orange. Colours Pink And Orange I was sold the small skirt suit as pink.  To me the appliqué has a slight pale blueish tinge. But the background colour is a stronger orange. The large jacket is closer in colour to mandarin orange. But I am happy with the combination. Sizes Too Small and Too Large. Too Tight, Too Small  The tight suit is not flattering. Without a tight foundation garment I look saggy and lumpy.  The large jacket hides that. The only problem with the small size is that the elastic is too tight. The skirt looks straight and elegant, but the waist is constrictîng, tugs on my lower ribs. Sizes of Indigo Moon The small size 'pink’ Indigo Moon suit was a good buy. I was afraid it would be too tight on the bust to wear, impossible to pull over my head. The large black skirt has the opposite problem. Too large, enormous. Too Large Skirt The ca...

 Yegas Vegas is an International Wine Judge. You can follow her on Instagram. Yegas Vegas and Angela Lansbury. Photo by Angela Lansbury. Copyright. I saw this vision of delectable orange at the Valpolicella, Italian wine tasting event at the Royal College of Surgeons in London. The outfit was worn by Yegas Vegas. The Jacket When I got closer I could see that the bright orange jacket had delicate black motifs. The black accents co-ordinated with her black mesh vest and black handbag. Making an ensemble. The black motifs included the letters abc and black animals. I think they were outlines of pairs of pigs. Unfortunately she bought it years ago in  Seville, Spain, not from South Africa where she hails from, so you are unlikely to be able to buy anything identical. However, you can learn from her that orange and black makes a stunning combination. If we had had time to talk, I might have been able to persuade her to take off the jacket so that I could read the label at the neck,...

Orange and black Shein dress worn by Angela Lansbury. Copyright Angela Lansbury. I bought the dress and co-ordinating orange jacket together for my summer holiday. When I was notified of sale items I searched for dress and matching jacket. I really wanted a long dress and elegant matching coat, at under twenty pounds. Most of them were just a bit beyond my budget  I bought a couple of them, not in the colours I wanted of red or pink or orange. The were not in my price or not in my size. So I opted for blue and purple. Then this popped up with a shorter jacket in orange and I was tempted and succumbed. The dress was long for me. So long that I would have tripped up. Luckily I had tried on all my outfits as I packed, and seeing that I needed a belt, I found A wide black belt. I packed a long black ribbon, which I could tie in a bow. But it was more inclined to slip than a proper belt. Even though I did not have time to sew two belt retaining loops, nor alternatively risk slitting the...
