The collections for the new season are already in the shops and, as always in the summer, I am not interested at all, so I show you my navy outfit, a oldy. I always want to wear my summer clothes for as long as possible and enjoy eating outside and sitting outside in the evening. And that doesn’t include fall clothes for me. Although I must say that I always think the autumn collections are the most beautiful ones. But I don’t want to see it yet and I don’t need to know it yet. Autumn lasts long enough.
A old navy outfit, and I ‘m done with it
So something on repeat today because I haven’t bought anything new in a while! It really wasn’t necessary, as I wore my summer clothes for such a short period this year. Because of the bad weather. Shelbee and I did shades of blue in August for The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. And this navy outfit I showed on her blog.
I never loved navy when I was younger. It was a bit of a posh colour. I only started wearing navy since a year of eight ago. Now I think it is a very elegant colour. And navy really looks good with any other colour. I personally like blue the best with green. But today I am in a bit of a holiday mood and wearing it with navy and white stripes.
Boring Betty is my middle name……
I’m not the type of person who never wears an outfit the same way. In fact, I wear my outfits the same way very often. Yeah, I am a real Boring Betty. Which I think is a shame on the one hand. On the other hand, I think the outfit I often wear is the most beautiful way to wear that piece of clothing, so yeah, why not.
Look, I don’t have so few clothes that people think, wow, there’s her in that dress again. Rather the opposite is the case. And I usually remember when I’ve worn something somewhere, on a birthday or something. Then I won’t wear that again when I meet the same people. So nothing wrong with wearing a outfit on repeat.
But I’m quite tired of this navy outfit. I’m a bit tired of these types of jackets so I think I’m going to sell them. And the skirt…I don’t know yet. So I usually wear something striped and white sneakers and that’s starting to bore me. And the skirt is polyester and very sticky. And I actually like it much better with a sweater and boots, but it’s way too thin for that. I think I’m done with the skirt too. Haha, it cleans up nicely that way. ( more room for something new, haha)

Thank you very much Gail, that is very kind of you!
I love that outfit, such a classic and a real keeper. But if you’re bored with it you’re bored with it!!! My suggestion would be to hide it away just in case…….

Haha, that is the best thing to do indeed! I will take your advice Pamela! Thanks.
I do love the outfit, but no where your coming from. Thanks for hosting. Jacqui.
Author
Thanks Jacqui!
I think this outfit is so lovely! I love the swirly skirt and the military jacket. But I totally understand how certain clothing items and styles can start to bore you after you have worn them for a long while. It’s always nice to make room for new clothes, too!

Indeed, it is time to make someone else happy with it!
I always associated navy with school uniforms here in Belgium, although thankfully my school didn’t require them!
That said, I only started to appreciate navy later in life 🙂 Wearing stripes with navy is such a classic and I don’t think it’s boring at all. Such a shame you are bored with this jacket, as I think it’s gorgeous. xxx

I think as former punks we saw navy as posh, at least I did. I worre that jaccket a lot, that’s why it bores me I guess.Thanks Ann!
I love that you embrace navy! And you are no boring Betty. I love the jacket and adore those fun earrings. Thanks so much for the feature and link up Nancy!

Totally my pleasure Kathrine!
Nancy, I would never call you a boring Betty! I agree, why not wear an outfit the same way when it’s perfect as is! I do like navy and the older I get the more I like it instead of black!
xo,

I can understand that because navy is softer then black. Thanks Kellyann!
I am holding on to summer as long as I can but I am excited to wear my fall clothing as well. I agree, nothing wrong with being an outfit repeater! Love this chic navy look!

Thank you Jill. I am looking forward to shop fall clothing!
I’m with you on not rushing for fall, it will be here soon enough. You look stunning as always. I love the skirt!
You look absolutely gorgeous! Love that pretty skirt and its twirl factor!

Thanks Laura!
That is a fabulous outfit on you! I love this classic navy winter and it does make me think of summer but yet with the jacket looks like a nice transition outfit for fall. I try to wear my summer things as long as possible too since it feels like such a short season here. It’s already getting quite cool with highs in the mid-60’s all week.
Author
Yes it is getting colder here too, almost winter temps by the end of the week, brr. Enjoy all the sunshine!
I do not have a lot of navy but I do love the little I have and usually can’t part with it: some halter tops, a tank top, a short sleeve cardigan (that it is so old it has little holes in it) and my new navy dress. I think it is such a classy color. I always find it funny when you share you want to get rid of something and then sometimes later you wish you had kept it. So make sure you won’t want this jacket back: I do love the style. But maybe it is time for a change..

OOh Mireille, throw away the cardigan, lol. Yes I think it is time for a change, I have so many of these style jackets. It’s good, I have loved them.
The last word that I would ever use to describe you is boring! You always look so cool. I love this outfit, and I have a lot of outfits that I wear repeatedly. Despite having a closet full of clothes. Anyway! I love fall fashion, but I also enjoy spending time outside. It still feels like summer here, and I’m just going to enjoy it! Have a lovely weekend!

Good of you! Enjoy the warmth to the fullest! I thought it would rain today, but the sun shnes! Yeah, I can go to my appointment on the bicycle.
Navy is a really pretty color on you actually and I love how flowy that skirt is! I’ve been really into skirts lately too!
Author
Thanks Erica!
That skirt has such great movement and hangs so pretty on your pretty figure. I like the way you have accessorized it. Feminine denim jacket and very pretty belt and sandals. A perfect transition outfit.
Author
Thank you very much Leslie.
I’m with you Nancy, I like to hold onto the warm weather as long as possible! Autumn moves into winter, and the cold just hangs around too long before the opportunity to wear those spring and summer clothes comes back around again! I think the outfit you are wearing is beautiful, and looks great on you. I am a big fan of navy blue. Alll of the pieces are such classics I would hesitate to part with any of them, they have so many mix and match possibilities! Hope you have a wonderful weekend and thanks for sharing and the link up!
Author
Thanks Di. Yes winter is so loooong and I really don’t like it as I am always cold. I have loved the skirt and jacket but it is time for someone else to love it!
You always make me giggle Nancy…not boring at all.
But I’m always questioning if there could be an even better way to wear something which is why I constantly switch things up,

I am not really a switch up girl.When I am bored with it, I don’t get the love back by wearing it in a total different way. That’s okay, because I wore this skirt and jacket a lot.
Great style combo.

Hi, Nancy – Thanks for letting us talk you out of keeping your clothes. Lol! What I mean is that by the end of this post, you seem to have decided to let go of most of the outfit pieces. But I’m glad you are keeping those beautiful earrings. Wow, what colors! It’s good to add a pop of color to black and I like the use of green. And I agree that it’s good to have many different kinds of the same thing, like your black t-shirts. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. 🙂 Angie, http://www.yourtrueselfblog.com

Haha, yes indeed! It is more a monologe with myself, lol. Thank you Angie!
I completely understand wanting to hold off on looking at fall clothes as long as summer weather sticks around. Your skirt has such great volume!
I hope you are having a great week so far!

Thank you very much for your comment Martina! Have a good week.
Oh, I love that jacket, Nancy, but if you’re tired of it, time to pass it on. I really need to go through my closet and just get rid of things. My biggest problem is where to take them! Thanks for the link up!
