Oh, what a lovely day. Happy Birthday to your mom!

That's such a sweet story and you're so thoughtful for arranging all of it!

Love both outfits, especially the cognac/teal combination in the first and the way the clutch picks up the stripes of the top in the second.

What a terrific story to read on a Sunday morning. You are a wonderful daughter! Your mother and your aunt are both very lucky to have you in the family. What a generous birthday gift!

Both outfits look great. The jeans are not too big and are very flattering. The restaurant outfit is a knockout! You look very beautiful. and the source is obvious.

Thanks for sharing. Your story has made my day!

Now we know the source of those gorgeous 'genes' of yours!
Such a loving gift - you are a treasure Sveta!

You know they say that if you share your joy with others it will double ( or triple). This is what I feel right now!
Thank you so much for sharing my joy: I was so happy for my mom and favorite aunt last night I just had to share with you!
My mom is my best friend ever and I am very close to her. I will alway jump on any chance to make her happy if it is in my power.
My aunt is like another mother to me. When I was born she was not married yet and did not have her own children. She was also living together with my family and naturally she became my second mom. I remember when I was maybe 4 years old I was confessing to my mom that although I love her very much I love Tamara (my aunt) more! Sometimes children can say weird things, right?
It is I who is extremely lucky to have such wonderful and amazing women in my life and I am so happy I can do something for them to give some of the love back which I was showered with all my childhood and afterwards!
Thank you for liking my outfits as well, they were secondary to the main topic of course but still important, right?

How exciting, Sveta! Thanx for sharing! I am so happy for you and your familiy reunion! I love surprises of these kind very much, and consider this one was a unique one! Your Mother is a beautiful lady I can see, and you dressed to the nines(why not tens?:-)(don't know if that's rights in English:-)) Love this post!

So heartwarming, thanks for sharing! I think those jeans look good on you and the scarf is beautiful and ties in with the boots nicely!

What a great story. And lovely pictures. Thank you for sharing them both.

Thanks for sharing these special pics, Sveta - I love hearing your happy story, and the joy on your mother's face is priceless. What a wonderful daughter you are!

You are a very sweet daughter. Mom is so stylish too!

Hi Sveta,

The story and sister pic made me misty. So beautiful.

You are lovely in all the photos.

Fantastic occasion you will smile about in years to come!
You and your Mom looked Fab, and now we can put a lovely face to your very own dressmaker we are all jealous about

Oh, Sveta! Thank you so much for sharing this lovely story! I'm getting teary-eyed, too, along with the rest of the crowd!! SO FUN!!! And of course you look completely gorgeous, as usual! Looking at your mom and aunt, I can now see where you get your amazing good looks!! Hugs to all of you!!

How wonderful you could bring them such great happiness. How lucky you all are to have each other. Thank you for sharing such a heartwarming story.
