WIW - Erranding with my mom

Hi Lovely ladies!
Today the weather is 63 degrees and sunny. Definitely a great start to the weekend. Took my mom erranding (bank, passport photos, local clothing store she loves) and then dropped her at her St. Michaels senior luncheon. This is what I wore.
green jacket (such a surprise!)
navy and cream striped LLBEAN boatneck
blue cross hatch scarf
WHBM blue jeans
Tsubo black and gray maryjanes
Fossil woven summer bag
white ceramic peugeot watch
red earrings

Bonus shot of new scarf from shop I visited with Mom today. Does the scarf look nice with the green jacket. Not sure if you can tell but there is a touch of green in the scarf. I love all the colors in it! The remind my of an exotic middle eastern rug pattern.

Opinions and suggestions? I thought it turned out pretty nicely.

    Meredith--this is a great outfit! So stylish and appropriate for spring weather. I love your green jacket and the new scarf looks perfect with it.

  • Astrid replied 12 years ago

    Perfect spring outfit! I still love that jacket on you and I think the new scarf looks great with it. You look fab!

    I love the cobalt with green and the new scarf is just fab! You have a great eye for scarves :)

  • Makrame replied 12 years ago

    Great outfit, especially the blue scarf. Kirti is right, you have a talent for picking out great scarves.

    I LOVE that first picture! Reilly and you look so happy! This is a lovely outfit for errands, and your new scarf is great. Love the pattern mixing with the stripes;-)

    Very nice errand-running outfit! I love the bright blue scarf with it.

    The new scarf is gorgeous, too! I like the blue one better with this particular outfit, but the red one will go with lots of other things.

  • Suz replied 12 years ago

    Great outfit and it feels completely like spring. You look wonderful in those stripes!

    I like the new scarf, too.

  • Meredith1953 replied 12 years ago

    Thanks ladies! I appreciate your thumbs up on the outfit. That new scarf will work with a lot of things I hope. I realize that it is not a springy scarf but I simply couldn't resist and since it's Idaho I live in our weather definitely throws us curveballs all the time!

    Beautiful colors on you Meredith - fab casual look!

  • taylor replied 12 years ago

    Fabulous colors!

  • Sarah A replied 12 years ago

    very springy, love the green and cobalt. The new scarf is also quite pretty and I am sure you will find lots of ways to style it as well.

  • MsMary replied 12 years ago

    You? Look fab!!

  • Sveta replied 12 years ago

    I love your green jacket - is it denim? Very nice spring color. Of course the rest of your outfit is fab too but for me the jacket just steals the show!

  • Jewell replied 12 years ago

    Fabulous, Meredith! This is among my favorite outfits that you've posted. Lovely scarf! I always enjoy your scarf photos- I get ideas for how to tie my own : )

  • Jonesy replied 12 years ago

    You look so spring-y and fab! I love the jacket paired with the white and navy--perfect! Your pooch looks adorable too, needless to say :).

    The new scarf looks fab too, but I'm not so sure about it with the mint jacket. It seems fall-ish to me, while the jacket is all about spring, but maybe it looks different IRL? Just my two cents.

  • Scarlet replied 12 years ago

    Really cute outfit. I especially love the color combo. (I have the feeling I have said that to you before.) I think you can wear the new scarf with the green jacket, but it wouldn't be my favorite pairing.

  • Meredith1953 replied 12 years ago

    Ladies,
    Thanks! I actually teamed the new scarf just as a proof of concept that the colors would actually work. I agree that it is as Jonesy put it "fallish" where the rest of the outfit is more springy/summer. Thanks for all the thumbs up on the basic look!

  • ManidipaM replied 12 years ago

    LOVE red scarf with lime jacket. Red and green are the traditional colours of spring/summer where I live, with a shot of yellow thrown in for early spring!

    And that first outfit is just FABULOUSLY accessorized! LOVE that you added red earrings to the blue scarf --- a small, subtle pop of colour but so sophisticated!

  • Meredith1953 replied 12 years ago

    ManidipaM,
    Thanks for noticing the earrings! I didn't realize I was participating in traditional Indian colors but I like it! It's so interesting to hear about your homeland!

  • Meghan R replied 12 years ago

    I love the outfit, and it looks great with both scarves. The blue one in particular really pops, but the new scarf is also gorgeous. This is perfect for errand-running!
