The Co-Ord at the Community Library

The Co-Ord 1
The co-ord was a new fashion term introduced to me by my niece this summer. The co-ord is basically short for a coordinate–or in other words a matching top and bottom. The co-ord is an excellent substitute for a dress or suit; often times the top might be cropped or extra flowy, and the bottoms are often shorts, culottes or a pencil skirt. Right before we head back to Hong Kong each school year, Kevin likes to make a trip to the Nordstrom Rack. On two different occasions when he was finished and in the checkout line, I just made a quick swoop through the women’s department. Both times, I was able to scoop up a co-ord–this outfit being one of them. I wore this co-ord to go visit our community library in Spirit Lake–cuz you know a librarian needs to support her local libraries! I’m wearing the other co-ord for my first day of school tomorrow.

    1. Thank you Johanna! I agree; it’s like I stumbled on the jackpot with these co-ords. Check today’s post too! I wore another co-ord for the first day of school.

      Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

      Love, Ann

  2. I like it! Blue and plaid are my favorites, so this is perfect. And, love the setting for your pics!

    1. I couldn’t resist the little library wear we vacation each summer. It’s such a cute library–probably 1/10 the size of the one I work it, but a community hub all the same! A x

  4. I love matchy matchy, cannot help it. So I love co-ords too. This is a very nice one. I love the fact that it looks very ladylike and then all of a sudden you see a bit of skin. I can imagine the locals going “ohhhh did you see that???” Or are they very modern in your neck of the woods? They would do that even here in Haarlem.

    1. Greetje, it’s so funny you mention the locals. They are locals! A few of the people in the cars passing by on the highway right where I took these pics, slowed down to look! It is a very, hmmm, how shall I say it….laid back vibe out there in Spirit Lake, Idaho! Hahah! You can imagine!! A x
