Anchor buttons

Right, and I brought these home from Lisbon.



Much better than souvenirs, and will last longer than the two bottles of port I also bought. I'm thinking of a summer jacket in red cotton. The question is, would a sailor collar be completely over-the-top in a good way or a bad way? They so easily come off as a little childish, and that is not the effect I'm after.

Tonight I'm going to a party, for once - the invitation promises the blood of Christ plus small pieces of the body of Christ after seven o'clock tonight, and might just be the most sacrilegious document in my inbox so far. Good company, too. It'll be fun.

I say yes to the sailor collar :D!

I think so long as the other detailing is simple and it has a very fitted, mature cut, it will avoid looking childish. Also, what you wear it with will help.

You're probably right. The only thing I'm likely to wear with it that will emphasize the childish feel is the red polkadot shoes - I don't know how that will work out, but I'm bound to wear it with my usual fitted pencil skirts anyway, which will probably help cut the infantile..
