Congratulations on the new hair and lipstick. That color is perfect on you!!!!!!!!!

Boy, that is my kind of outfit - love every single item! Cute hair / lipstick pics!

Thank you, all, so very much, and to answer your questions:

AJ, yes, they are TTS, and Marley bought the same pair, too. It has a good heel height.

sylvie55, the brand of lipstick is Pony Effect and the shade is "Waltz Step." (First photo) I also bought a Pony Effect stayfit matte lip colour that I plan to try today and it's a similar color called "Amazing." (Second photo)

So fab. I have trouble combining some of my gray items, but you've done it beautifully here.

Love the lip color! It's beautiful on you. The outfit is fab as well...love the shoes.

Sooooo pretty

Oh, I love everything about your look!! I'm not usually a fan of grey jeans, but they really work for you and the soft contrast with the top is nice and then the bigger contrast with the jacket! I love seeing pictures of your lovely patio and yard, too!

Absolutely FAb head to toe

I need to visit your hairdresser right away! Perfect cut. Your outfit is the kind of color and style I'm drawn to these days.

Could you show us the back of the hair too? (Envy is the sincerest form of flattery, you know.)

Overall fabulous.

Your haircut is so cute and playful, and I LOVE the lip!

Again, everyone, thank you for your really kind comments here.

MsMaven, I took these photos today and hope they help in some way. ^^

Such a great casual look Vicki! I really love the tonality - and you are making me want some grey suedes shoes. I'm saving this page for future inspiration .

Thank you so much for those back photos--your hair looks so great front and back. I'm never happy with how the hairdressers do on the back. This week I am going to make an appointment with my former hairdresser's salon. He no longer cuts hair, but I hope I can go when he is around to advise the stylist.

I will take your hair photos with me.

You give me encouragement that there is hope for fine, straight, hair.

I love this look too, this "level" of dressiness works well for my job and for many of my evening occasions too. The flats and jeans make it practical but the choker and jacket add a classiness.
The hair and smile are wonderful:)

Love the haircut, love the outfit, love the shoes!

You always look so lovely, Vicki! Glad the new cut and make-up gave you a lift.
