This outfit is one part Carrie from Sex and the City: The Movie (it is actually from Patricia Field’s Destination Style line that sells on HSN and as you are probably aware Patricia Field did the styling for the SATC – TV & Movie) and one part Dorothy from The Golden Girls.
I plan on wearing it loose and swingy over dresses come warmer weather, but opted to wear it with pants today (by the way, I haven’t worn pants on a work day since Feb. 27!). It kind of looks like a dress over pants that so many of my ladies over at Flickr's Wardrobe Remix rock so well which I like because that isn't a trend I have really tried yet.
