It just seemed like a good idea. Plus I love this dress!
This time, I played with a grey/white speckle match with the vibrant colour. This is actually a Jammy Dress, despite its swanky appearance.
It looks great, it's totally comfy to wear.
It has two big pockets and goes with tons of stuff. I've worn it 8 times in 6 years, every time different. Oops, left the wrong setting on the camera.
Let's pretend I'm a silent movie star. This coat was too warm - this weather is hard to dress for!

The boys have been camera-shy lately.
"We want the window open." "I love the deck!"
The warmer weather and all the birds chirping have them intrigued. Our windows look out on trees - it's Cat TV! It's not quite deck weather, but soon!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! Your coat is too warm, and here we woke up to a winter wonderland, and a forecast of -17°C tonight. Those shoes are cute, with a quirky heel.
ReplyDeleteHaha yes I too call our terrace window cat TV :). The weather is currently hard to dress for here on the Black Sea as well. Freezing in the morning and warm later. You are looking very glam in that dress coat. My maternal ancestors were Irish but have never celebrated the day.
