Morning sun, old stone, no patience. A navy wool blazer dress with an oversized second lapel and a long sash falling from the waist, opaque black tights, black leather ankle boots with a slim heel. Navy in the sun looks black. Convenient. Wear it from lunch into dinner.

A navy wool blazer dress with oversized double lapels, a wrap front and a long draped sash, worn with black tights and ankle boots.

A navy wool blazer dress built around its collar: a second, oversized lapel laid over the first, so the neckline opens wide. Flap pockets at the hip, padded shoulders, sleeves pushed up to show the forearms. The front wraps across and gathers at the waist into a long sash that drops on one side well past the hem.

Under it, opaque black tights and black leather ankle boots with a slim heel, which turn it from evening into day. An old-town street in the morning sun, a late lunch, and still dressed for dinner without going home. Autumn is the obvious season; a cool spring day works too.

Navy in the sun looks almost black. That is the closest I get to compromise.
