It was only after I checked out the photos that I realized the lining of this blazer reads more navy than black in pictures. In person it appears much darker.
This blouse has tabs on the sleeves to assist in rolling them up!
The sleeve tabs mirror the shoulder epaulets for a slight military cut.

You may recall from a few posts ago I mixed black and blue, here I'm doing another "don't" matching black to brown. Will this insanity every stop, you ask? Hopefully not! But seriously, this isn't really brown, more like beige, which the scarf already has going on. So, again I'm just taking the already established lead of one garment to build an outfit around.
I wore this on one of the longest days of my life in the past month--work from 7:30-4, seminar from 4:30-6 and then my writing workshop from 6:30-8:30. I didn't get home till after 9 and the outfit stood up to the challenge staying crisp even as my face faded from the strain of the day. Oh and it was also comfortable, which I know is a bad word when talking fashion, but wearability is key and this outfit definitely served that purpose.
