I really love the jumpsuit and cardi together. Summer weather won't allow me to wear it much more but I hope I can wear it again in the autumn. I think I'm taking care of myself... you're lovely to remind me &lt;3 I'm still knitting some, exercising, eating well, and getting dressed and applying cosmetics everyday. So I feel I'm doing well, just very busy.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Suz</b>, Thank you!! I am glad I tried the outfit combo. While I don't have much cinnamon planned for autumn/winter, I do very much love it. And I'm glad you agree. AND... I really love that blue too!! I want to find more blues to wear. If the color is warm enough, I enjoy blue. Thank you for the condolences. &lt;3 We didn't get to see him much, so a sad loss. His mother, Hub's grandmother, passed away only a few months prior to him. Just a lot of loss.&nbsp;<br /><div><br /></div><div><b>Jaime</b>, very gracious of you to say that &lt;3 Honestly, I've been so busy that I don't know if everything has sunk in? Not busy to hide from grief, just truly busy. (Hopefully there might be time to get away this summer for some down time.) That is a fantastic idea to find someone to remake the jumpsuit! I'll have to see who is amiable to this in the area.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Everyone</b>, you touch my heart with our kind words! Henry has recovered well. He just got his cone off on Monday, and so far, so good. :D&nbsp;It has been one thing after another since December, on top of daily motherhood, and all the things. We have lots of play dates this summer to commute, and lots of house repairs and such. I don't know if things will slow down one bit. I find myself enforcing daily quiet time hour with more consistency and vigor. During this time, I zone out and watch <i>Lovejoy</i>&nbsp;and knit in relative peace and quiet. I was feeling guilty about it, but I think I just need some recharge time. I'm still getting outdoors, reading at bedtime, and such. But I'm almost always with one or both of my fellas. So... not much alone time and I'm kind of feeling it. :]<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boho-throwback#post-2386632 Thu, 22 May 2025 23:05:09 +0000 Jaime 2386632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you look fab despite everything going on. Glad Henry is on the mend. I have noticed that a lot of fast fashion has cute design but shoddy material and construction. I wonder if you could find someone to remake that jumpsuit for you for less than buying a new higher quality version. Maybe a young design student or new tailor. I am just making this up as I type but I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes a popular gig the way things are going. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boho-throwback#post-2386630 Thu, 22 May 2025 21:44:32 +0000 Suz 2386630@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a fantastic outfit! Love love love you in that rich cinnamon (as you know) but the jumpsuit is casually elegant with it -- also a beautiful blue on you.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm so so sorry to hear about Henry but awfully glad you have been able to treat him and hope he recovers quickly. They never like those cone things but they do help! Condolences to your husband on the loss of his uncle. It sounds like you are dealing with a lot.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boho-throwback#post-2386622 Thu, 22 May 2025 18:11:42 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2386622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a fantastic outfit, Ket. The sweater complements the jumpsuit beautifully. What a stunning knit; you are so talented. I'm sorry to hear about the tough, sad times. Sounds like you are taking care of everyone--I hope that includes yourself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boho-throwback#post-2386337 Mon, 19 May 2025 21:38:13 +0000 Ket 2386337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Angie</b>, ooo! yay! Thank you for the Henry love and condolences. My dad just had surgery for partially detached retina too. So... Hanging in there &lt;3 We are going to try camping in June. Might be good to get away.&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div><b>Irina</b>, thank you so dearly! My only complaint is I knit it in acrylic. (Found a fab yarn deal.) I may knit a second one in wool in another color.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Star</b>, oh thank you!! I will give Henry extra cuddles form you &lt;3</p> <p><b>Lisa</b>, thank you!! I have never paired burnt orange with navy before. So far I'm really loving it. And so far, so good on the recovery front! Henry got his cone off today, so waiting to see how things go. :)&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boho-throwback#post-2386330 Mon, 19 May 2025 21:06:02 +0000 Lisa 2386330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry to hear about Henry.

Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boho-throwback#post-2386316 Mon, 19 May 2025 16:22:26 +0000 Angie 2386316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER cute. I like the flats you chose! And the jumpsuit is awesome with the '70s wrap ;)</p> <p>Soooo sorry to hear about Henry. Glad he's recouping and sending healing thoughts. My condolences too. Hang in there.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boho-throwback#post-2386312 Mon, 19 May 2025 15:42:09 +0000 Ket 2386312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ve loved all the glam Sophia inspired looks. Buuuut… today I craved earthy boho. </p> <p>Jumpsuit: gifted from a neighbor, probably Temu<br /> Cardigan: handknit by me<br /> Necklace: also gifted, from a friend<br /> Earrings: Maurice’s<br /> Makeup: 12 Blueprints dark autumn eyeshadow for liner. Bronzer on face and eyes. 12 Blueprints “Baha” dark autumn blush. NYX Butter Gloss in Praline. </p> <p>The jumpsuit is likely on its last season. It’s 100% polyester. It attracts every shred of cat hair within 10 miles. (It’s not static cling, it just attracts it..) It’s also pilling at the leg hems. It served me well. I love the comfiness of the shirred bodice, wide legs, soft sleeves. I might try replacing it with a better quality version. </p> <p>Temp is 50s F right now, so a chunky yet airy, lacy sweater feels right. </p> <p>Only thing I don’t love is my shoes; had to put on my pointy flats. A strap on my metallic gladiator sandals popped out of a glued seam. Thinking and hoping bit of glue and a clamp will fix it easily. Really need to get my tush in gear and order a second pair of sandals. </p> <p>Life has been very full. Henry nearly died a second time due to blocked bladder. We discovered it and rushed him back to the ER vet hospital just in the very nick of time. (His potassium was so high that his heart rate had dropped and he wouldn’t have made it much longer.) Turns out his urethra was abnormally tapered and narrowed at the tip, so he would never overcome blockages or crystal formation on his own. He had urthera widening surgery (PU surgery). He’s spent the last 3 weeks locked up in our bedroom, recuperating with a cone around his neck 24/7. His recovery has required a lot of watchfulness and nursing on our part. Mostly so he didn’t get the cone off, lick the surgical site and cause scar tissue to form, which could cause another blockage and necessitate another PU surgery. (He still got the cone off 6 times!)</p> <p>In the midst of this, my husband’s uncle passed away. We’ve been cleaning the house for when my in-laws arrive in 4 days. And we go three new chicks for our broody hen to raise this summer. </p> <p>Despite this, I made a few more autumn clothing purchases. Will share those sometime soonish. </p> <p>xo! </p>
