I'm back!

Slim cat, Sam and Jo are love bugs

Sharan, JUST in time!

Star, nice one!

Suntiger, 2 Yorkies send kisses back.

Olive Green, I'll try the look with the tulle skirt soon!

Mirjana, yes to Christmas ready, and presents wrapped too. Phew!

cat2, enjoy your winter outfits. There is frost in Seattle this morning.....

Irina, appreciate the gracious words.

Mary Beth, how is it going? It will happen

Carla, I find that as long as the sweaters and sweatshirts are roomy, layering a fluid shirt under them works well.

Roberta, I bet your decorations look smashing! Like your Thanksgiving Day outfit.

Kelly, lovely to see you! Kisses to Oreo from Sam and Jo.

What a fantastic jumper,especially for a Yorkie mum like you.The view from your home is spectacular l d never get anything done as l would be gazing out of the window all the time.

Wow! The layering is sooo good. But the double doggies! fab!

Yorkie triplets for the win!

Are your pointsettias white? They look pretty in those gorgeous planters.

Bringing festive casual to new heights, Angie. I love how your decor is both present and doesn’t compete with that show stopping view. Enjoy the season!

Angie, You look so adorable and fab with your little ones--that sweater is a gem- so fun especially layered over that flanell. AND what a delish to get a glimpse of your beautifull home and glamorous view-love your Xmass tree! Do I spot you also have picties of your loved ones on it --what a great ideea that would be!

Ha! Yes, it’s a perfect match

Your very merry and heart-warming pictures are putting me in the holiday mood. And your gorgeous view makes me homesick for Seattle, my former home. All so lovely. Thank you for sharing!

I’m gettin’ classy Ralph Lauren vibes Let the season begin!

Is that...where you live? Gorgeous, I hope you have a nice coffee table book out. Red on red on red, love it. Gets my imagination full of possibilities.

Beautiful!!

Angie - you look so festive and happy in these pictures. They truly brought a smile to my face!

Important question: I would purchase that tartan shirt in a heartbeat, but it is sold out. As it is a classic, do you think they will get it in again?
Would love to know your thoughts, based on your professional experience. Thanks!

Thanks so much, everyone!

Cardiff girl, our views keep us going. Definitely therapeutic

kkards triple doggies, actually

Lee, thanks for chiming back in!

Rachy, RL is fab

Helena, keeping spirits high!

Laura, yes! White poinsettias are my faves. Yours too?

Eliza, you too! Appreciate your good eye and wisdom.

Carol, yes, this is our small loft with gigantic views! Lots of fun books on the table.

Lyn67, yes! There are pics of Sam and Jo as tree decorations. Well spotted! It's a dressy tartan shirt - not flannel. Versatile

ChristelJ, you've lived Seattle! I didn't know. Come visit

Sabimct, the shirt sold out in a nanosecond! I know - might come back into stock. Keep stalking. J.Crew seems to do a version every year, so you'll get one eventually!

Great outfit! I love the plaid under the sweater and the fun jeans!

Thanks, RobinF! I haven't layered like this for a while, and enjoyed it.

Sam and Jo on the shelf !

You're wearing the style I wish I had had in the 80s and 90s, Angie! SOOOO cool, nostalgic, easy, yet chic. I LOVETH! I have a thing for tartan and scotties. So I'm already trying to figure out how I can knit a giant scottie silhouette on a sweater. hahaha!

That sweater! That view! You look fabulous, and you know I love the three yorkies picture.

Cee, not on the shelf - on the tree!

Ket, such delightful and kind words! Thank you! Curious about your imminent Scottie sweater

Karie! My big fellow doggie person! YES. I had you with the Yorkies! Kisses and tail wags to Cosmo and Callie.

That explains them yapping out the Tarzan cry !

I meant that we have custom-made tree decorations with Sam and Jo on them

Lovely happy photos!! All looking very content and festive.

I am not going to pick the cutest.......it's a hard competition.

Wow - you all look picture perfect, doggies may hinder the decorating process, but they certainly make it more fun. The view from your loft is spectacular!

Thanks, Sal! Sam and Jo win the cutest award, by far

Bijou! You have the best Westie jumper. Such a treasure! Thanks for the kind words.

Explain the leopard skin loin cloths then !
