looking lovely! and some seriously fab outfits!

*plonk*

Ladies, your comments are beyond generous. I’ve peeked briefly from my phone during the day and I was so elated, thank you.

Deborah, JamC, ann, Aquamarine, donnat, Shannon, jackiec, carter, Debbie, celia, Joyce, LACeleste, Mellllls, Lily, Eva, Carla, Kiwigal, always trying :: many, many thanks for your kind comments.

Lynne :: how wonderful to see you. I hope things are ok for you. Thank you.

Diane :: thank you. I think we could all exchange healthy advice at some point.

chouette22 :: wow, this IS a surprise! Thank you and good luck with the move. Eat well, sleep as much as you can and remember - it will all be over.

Beth Ann :: irl, it’s 3rd floor, but I feel on top of the world Thank you. I am actually hunting some not-so-classic (for me) footwear, but it’s not as easy to find both comfort and style.

Vildy :: thank you. Enjoy your new top

Peri :: lol, thank you The elevator ride is very short - just 3 floors! Although for the sake of fitness I should take the stairs - in the morning I take the elevator because of the long mirror and probably my only chance to take WIW photo. Colleagues often pass me while I wait and look in wonder, but I tell them the same “I need the mirror”

Gingko :: I am still cycling, of course, but not as much. (And always in comfortable clothes.) I work in different city, so commute involves other types of vehicles, but quick pops to the local supermarket after work and long weekend rides with friends and kids is what’s on the menu now.

Astrid :: thank you. One (or two) bag to rule them all, I am that type at least for now, and I’d only recommend you do the bag preselection to help the giver, as it’s an important item for which only you understand how you like it best.

Angie :: No bike helmet before the work at least, but I have it close when I check WIWs here Thanks for your kind words and yes - the bOys are doing great. Happy-Moments-thread type of great actually.

lyn67 :: thank you very much kind lady. More B&W stuff to come in my next backlog. And when you find the white bag let me know.

Thanks Ornella - yes, I'm definitely going to pick it myself if I ask for one. We don't have a problem with that in my family.

Great outfits. I'm really happy that things are going so well.

How wonderful to hear from you and see you Ornella! You look absolutely beautiful and your happiness is overflowing and making me smile. So nice to read that things are going well and I'm looking forward to more outfits!

Ornella,it is wonderful to see your post and outfits. You look beautiful and your hair looks wonderful at the longer length. It's good to hear that things are going well for you.

Ornella, you're simply gorgeous! I love all your outfits. You're pretty as hell! And everything fits you so well.....your hair adds a very soft touch to your elegant and polished look. I hope to see much more of you in the future!

Thank you shedev, Jaime, Joy and Maneera.

Wishing everyone a happy, relaxed Sunday.

How lovely to see you again, Ornella. I have missed your beautiful outfits and lovely cohesive wardrobe.

Glad to know that your new job, and life in general, is working so well for you, even if it's tiring at times. It certainly is a big jump going from SAHM to working again.

Your longer hair is looking fabulous.

How great to see you! And what a smile on your face... lovely to see. Love this idea of taking the photos in the elevator... xxx

You look gorgeous in these pictures and I think your style has grown. Plus, you look very HAPPY . . . which is the most important.

Ornella, it's great to see you again. You are looking so fabulous! I love your polished, pretty work looks. What a thoughtful, inspiring post. It's good to hear you are doing so well and enjoying your new work and life.

It's so nice to see you, Ornella! You are looking fantastic and your WIWs are killer! It's great to know life is good for you even though you are super busy.

Oh wow, how fantastic are these!

And I love the elevator pics... such an upgrade to my ladies lounge pics

These are all so fab I can hardly pick a favorite.
You are the queen of sharp color blocking and focused but lively color palette.

Yay more outfits, and these are as spot on as the last set. Oh, and I also adore avocado. Perfect paired with salsa on fish.

So wonderful to see you post. You are one of my YLF style icons. Thanks for taking the time to share, it's a treat to see your pics and read your analysis. Hugs.
