Melts my heart. I love ALL of your photos, you are a talented photographer. As for the outfits, casual perfection and they are outfits I'd copy in a heartbeat. Love the yellow with the B&amp;W, and also the blue on blue. I agree, cross bodies are a dream for MOTGs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mothers-weekend-and-independence-day#post-1249466 Mon, 12 May 2014 13:24:12 +0000 missvee 1249466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both of your outfits.

Gorgeous both. Your son is a treasure (as all our kids are!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mothers-weekend-and-independence-day#post-1249336 Mon, 12 May 2014 11:09:34 +0000 Ornella 1249336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks&nbsp;<b>ramya</b>&nbsp;for your kind comment.</p> <p>I suggest posting black tops round for our input. I have worked through a lot of mine over my time on YLF and came up with&nbsp;whole list of things that makes a top work for me - necklines, lengths, fabrics. I am now down to two tops that work. Because I wear them a lot, there's an easy bottleneck there, but at least I know what exactly I'm looking for as I search for new ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mothers-weekend-and-independence-day#post-1249331 Mon, 12 May 2014 10:47:48 +0000 ramya 1249331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awwww Kids grow so soon. He went to store all alone!!!</p> <p>Ornella, I love your first outfit soooo much!!!. Now I want the perfect black top. Strangely all my black tops have some or the other problem. Don't know why I don't find them right </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mothers-weekend-and-independence-day#post-1249326 Mon, 12 May 2014 10:25:58 +0000 Ornella 1249326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There was yellow colour for Angie.<br />And blue for my little Prince Blue, of course.</p> <p>Saturday was packed with fun activities. Our local Music School had an open day, so we finally went to check the place in the early afternoon, meet the teachers, have fun trying the instruments and meet friends. Later in the day there was yet another research trip to the&nbsp;furniture stores.</p> <ul> <li><b>Outfit #1</b>:&nbsp;I wanted to wear yellow something, that something being the only thing I have - my bag. The rest are old favourites and new favourite shoes.</li> </ul> <p>Sunday was wonderful. The whole Mother's Day festivities actually started on Friday when my son gave me very clear instructions that I must sleep until very late on Sunday because he and his dad will prepare the breakfast and only then I can see what he had made for me. He was fine-tuning his plans a day later and then on Sunday went to the bakery alone to buy the pastry for breakfast. He was so proud of this new feeling of independence. </p> <ul> <li><b>Outfit #2:&nbsp;</b>Later that day we went to a small historical town in our neighbourhood and I decided blue something was the order of the day, so I started with this lightweight, yet warm scarf in ink blue with white tie-dyed pattern.&nbsp;The rest is a take on denim-on-denim -&nbsp;surprisingly to me as I seem to have on-off relationship with the formula.&nbsp;Crossbody bag is my all time favourite&nbsp;MOTG accessory.&nbsp;Sunnies to cover sunny spells during the day, booties to make sure feet don't get wet when it rained. The weather was erratic, but we had a great time.</li> </ul> <p><b>Joyful extras:</b> (1) Master O tries it all -- (2) The handmade card -- (3) Big enough to step out independently -- (4) Blue sky above us during the walk</p> <p>Thanks for reading and commenting. </p>
