I woke up this morning feeling a little sniffly...I am hoping I don't have what L had over the weekend.
Edit, next day: Yup, I'm sick and I'm home from work.

- Boots - Spring Step L'Artiste; purchased here on the weekend for $150 in gift cards

Burnt orange is such a great colour.
I liked how the orange dress mirrored the red bits in the brocade.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Cynthia!
DeleteThe boots are so fabulous! I hope you sleep well and wake up healthy.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Linda. Unfortunately, I woke up sick.
DeleteHello from Idaho and stop in from Vix. My hubby and son family had the crud sure hope you don't get it.
ReplyDeleteLove the color of your boots, so many things to go with it.
Stop by for cup of coffee is you have time
Hello, Dora, via Idaho and Vix! Thank you so much for coming by! Aw, it's so cruddy, and I definitely have it. :( Boo.
DeleteThank you so much - I will come by!
I've no doubt that wearing those boots will give you super powers and you'll kick that pesky cold into touch!
ReplyDeleteThey look fabulous. That orange dress was the perfect choice! xxx
Well, maybe they take a couple of wears for their superpowers to sink in, Vix...
DeleteThank you!
That gorgeous orange dress was the perfect companion for those boots's first outing. That Robert Larin pendant is utterly stunning and indeed reminds me of some of the sculptures in our wonderful park. I hope those sniffles are on their way out soon! xxx
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Ann! Yes, that pendant totally reminded me of your sculptures. I'll give this cold a few days of indulgence for now.
DeleteGreetings from Oshawa, Ontario. The brocade boots are spectacular - definitely closet treasure! I wish both you and L a speedy return to good health.
ReplyDeleteHello, Nana from Oshawa! So nice to meet you. Thank you so much. L is mostly better, and now it's my turn...
DeleteThe boots! The boots!
ReplyDeleteI know! I know!
DeleteThat burned orange dress is stunning. It looks great on you. I love that you paired it with your new statement boots. A match made in fashion heaven. You look amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope you're feeling well and that the colour therapy helped in fighting off whatever was in th air. Have a great day!
Thanks so much, Ivana - I love this dress (I wish it had pockets!), and wanted to let the boots shine. Aw, you're so sweet. Thank you!
DeleteThose brocade boots so shine paired with this dress. I can't wait to see with what you'll wear them next.
DeleteWell the boots are simply wonderful on and I do love that burnt orange dress. A very flattering shape and such a lovely colour. A great accompaniment to the boots.
ReplyDeleteI hope you and L are both getting over/through your colds. It could be Vizzini, next!

Thank you, Vronni! Nah, Vizzini will be fine - he's giving us lots of purr therapy.
DeleteSo cute!! Love the boots!!! I hope you're not sick!
ReplyDeleteI'm sick. Thank you, Becky!

Thanks so much, Marisa!
DeleteWoww, your boots totally rock and look even more fabulous with this orange dress, such a brilliant ensemble (in all possible meaning!) and you look particularly gorgeous in these colors!
ReplyDeleteHope L. is feeling better! and wish you a healthy week!
besos
Aren't they fabulous? Thanks so much! L is much better - nearly recovered - and now it's my turn (sigh).
DeleteWhen it comes to footwear you cannot be beaten. What a spectacular boots, I love them. And you paired them so well with this burnt orange dress. Indeed picking up the red bits in the boots, elegant, showing off your good figure and letting the boots take centre stage. Well done. I like the gold necklace with it as well.
ReplyDeleteI can fully understand all the compliments you got.
Greetje
Aw, thank you, Greetje! I adore these boots too.
DeleteBurnt orange has got to be my favourite colour. In fact, most oranges will do!
ReplyDeleteYou look ultra fab in your boots.
I hope you are feeling better. X
Same here, Jess - I love oranges. Thank you! Getting there - I'll be right as rain in a few days.
DeleteOMG Sheila, those boots! I feel slightly sick with envy however. Belly ache and gnawing pains of sheer envy may well test our friendship. Of course you deserve them, but honestly it pains me terribly to say something nice :(
ReplyDeleteOh, you settle down there, sweetie! You have shoes that I am mad for!
DeleteThose are some damn fine boots! They are the stars of this outfit although I really like the shape and colour of the dress too.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! I am rather in love with them.
DeleteThose boots are a work of art ! WOW :)
ReplyDeleteI know, right?
