I dressed for sitting on the floor and grabbing and petting and playing with the kittens (names to be revealed once we have them), as we visited them in their foster home in the morning.
We chilled out in the afternoon, playing boardgames and listening to music, as we shared pics with our family (chosen and actual), and got more and more excited. I'm supposed to be chill about it, but I'm NOT!
Nylon pants for little kitties sitting on me.
I also wore this to Book Club at Caro's later that night. Casual was called for.
- Sweater - Luisa Cerano, thrifted; last worn here in January with pink tulle to hang with Mom
- Nylon pants - Cambio, consignment; last seen here (4th outfit) in June for an evening of board games
- Sneakers - L'intervalle, consignment; last worn here in August for our trip to Powell River
- Suede coat (below) - Danier Leather, consignment; last seen here in April
For days that were supposed to be full of rain, it was a pretty lovely sunny/cloudy day.
It boded well for the visit to meet the wee furry boys.
L and I got home and could barely contain our excitement - it's like Christmas, only with cats!
I haven't worn this sparkly light sweater for ages, but kept it out for a day just like this.
An orange coat as a nod to the day.
The temps are quite cool, and the wind has a bite to it.
The stuff:
Cozy things.
- Purse - Rebecca Minkoff, consignment
- Silk scarf - Museum of Modern Art, thrifted
Strong bling:
We'll share the names once we actually have them (they have foster names which we won't keep). They were completely chill with us, a little playful, not too shy, and submitted to cuddles and grabbing (from me, ha ha). They seemed very happy and friendly.
Armoured up!
- Steel cuff - Lakeland Art Metal Works, vintage 70s, thrifted
- Steel/crystal bracelet - Juicy Couture, consignment
- Steel earrings - gift from Lise
- Silver/crystal ring - Soul Flower
- Anneke & Lars ring - vintage mall
And here are the boys:
We'll see you again soon!
Friday will be here before you know it! Oh my gosh, how will I wait that long!?
Aww, TWO kitties joining the family! I'm so excited for you! They are darling. A house without cats feels too empty.
ReplyDeleteAhhhhh! I'm so excited for you!! They're so cute. Congratulations on finding your new family members! <3
ReplyDeleteI’m so happy for both of you and for both of them. They hit the jackpot with you guys. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteWe just added two kittens to our house as well. Was going to show you pictures in the office today but you were off. Next week then maybe 😃
ReplyDeleteOh so cute! The gray stripey one looks like my Pretty Boy. I get your excitement. Cool outfit too! I am wearing something similar today. Rgds, Lise.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness how exciting is that! Your home will be filled with cat joy again! Looking so forward to know the names!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new kittens! How wonderful it will be to have cats in the house again
ReplyDeleteOh my double gosh! Yay! I have to go back and actually READ this post but couldn’t resist scrolling through first just to see your soon-to-be new residents. Now I’ll start at the beginning and read the tale!
ReplyDeleteCheers, Laurie
So happy for you and the kitties!
ReplyDeleteI currently have the same cat set that you are getting! A black and a tabby! I am glad you are getting two.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on adding two darling boys to your family! I am so happy to learn that you are adopting kitties from a rescue establishment and know that they will bring you so much joy and love in the years to come. We rescued a mother cat who went on to have 6 kittens who were in turn rescued ( and spayed and neutered). The remaining two boys stayed with us and they are now 14! Life is never dull, even with "senior" cats!
ReplyDeleteGreat outfit as usual and thanks for sharing the sights in your area with us!
Obviously, I had to scroll down right away! Aww, aren't they gorgeous? I bet you can't wait to bring them home. I can't wait to find out their names! xxx
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, so psyched for all four of you! Your boys remind me of Robin's girls as they are the same coloring. The tabby Frankie is the oldest, smaller of the two, and quite independent. Gigi is the black cat who loves to cuddle with Robin, wreck occasional havoc, and hide from visitors till she warms up to them.
ReplyDeleteSo excited for you to bring your boys home later in the week and wish the four of you much fun as you acclimate to one another, and for the cats as they explore and acclimate to their new home! Woohoo!!!!
Cheers, Laurie
