Those are signature to your look so finding a good alternative to the old ones is a great idea.&nbsp;</p> <p>Of course, you know I will never quarrel with anyone who chooses blue as a colour (hahahaha) but I also love the word serendipity.

I like the color, but I also like the way the heel is set in a bit from the back of the shoe. &nbsp;It gives the booties a fresh look. &nbsp;I hope they work for your feet!&nbsp;</div></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164913 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 14:27:31 +0000 Helena 2164913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>High-five Jenni!</p> <p>You look great, and I love your word ... the year has already been *ahem* unpredictable, so letting serendipity bless you as it can sounds just right! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164912 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 14:23:11 +0000 lyn67 2164912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah both top and sandals to match are gorgeous! Love the new boots, too! And so much to learn from your example/story for you chosen&nbsp;<i>word.</i> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164886 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 06:45:53 +0000 Jenni NZ 2164886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How lovely you all are! Thank you Phoebe, I said I can get anxious, not that I am all the time. I am no longer on any medication for it but was until 2 years ago. It can help me do a good job as a health professional, to check things properly. So not entirely a bad thing.<br /> And cjh I will definitely show you all the boots when they arrive!<br /> Thanks Greyscale I hope there is plenty of serendipity too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164883 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 06:05:46 +0000 Greyscale 2164883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Serendipity is my favorite idea! And for similar reasons. I get hung up on decisions but I also manage to let a lot of neat things find me unexpectedly. I hope the new year brings you lots of it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164881 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 05:28:28 +0000 Jenn 2164881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fingers crossed for new boots! Serendipity is a great word. I can imagine it must be incredibly stressful being in New Zealand and having a child in the US right now. If I didn't live here, I'd be scared for friends and relatives who did. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164862 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 03:25:35 +0000 Jaime 2164862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>An excellent choice of word and a new top. Yes, lots of life is really out of our control. As they say, it is how we react to what happens that matters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164839 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 22:06:40 +0000 cjh 2164839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab choices: new blouse, new blue boots, word and color. A nice outlook for the times coming up. I bet you are looking forward to some international travel for family visits. I hope that’s possible soon. Of course we know you’ll try those boots and show us photos ASAP. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164833 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 20:15:17 +0000 JAileen 2164833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a nice story, Jenni. &nbsp;Thanks for sharing. &nbsp;Our son and his girlfriend have come to visit for a month (after quarantining). &nbsp;It’s been nice getting to know her better, and spending time with our son. &nbsp;I loved your old blue boots, and these look like a good replacement. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164832 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 20:09:25 +0000 Anonymous 2164832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your choices, support you in your decision and might only suggest that you find a more positive word than "anxious" to describe yourself as I think the repetition of these less than flattering descriptors, even by ourselves, can be less than optimum for self image.</p> <p>And not even accurate as the word doesn't encompass all the good qualities of a caring, think-ahead personality! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164824 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 19:15:05 +0000 LaPed 2164824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, fingers crossed the new boots work out. They look wonderful! I love your word; I think we're all having to learn how to go with the flow right now, and accept that some things are beyond our control.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164820 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 18:17:50 +0000 nuancedream 2164820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great word. You look lovely in your floral blouse and sandals, Jenni.&nbsp; I am so happy you were able to find a suitable replacement for those fab cobalt booties. Looking at your super cute eyeglasses reminds me that I should update my&nbsp;specs for 2021.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164819 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 18:08:46 +0000 Irina 2164819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful outfit, Jenni, looks so well put together.

I'm a but of a planner too but tend to think of it more as just rolling with the punches--serendipitous sounds so much better.&nbsp; Gorgeous floral blouse--seeing this and your lovely smile has me thinking about spring and better things. Wishing you a fab 2021 and hope those gorgeous cobalt boots work for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164806 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 16:34:55 +0000 Angie 2164806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful blouse with matching sandals.

I think the word is a good juxtaposition to the structure that you have in your wardrobe in terms of counting numbers of wears.&nbsp;</p> <p>Phew for your daughter and SIL.&nbsp;</p> <p>The new blouse is very pretty and I like the sandals with it too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164769 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 12:51:33 +0000 Minaminu 2164769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>beautiful outfit! I like how you bookended the shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164750 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 05:56:26 +0000 Bijou 2164750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That top is just gorgeous on you - so glad you got it. I have my fingers crossed that those boots are extremely comfortable. You need very comfortable shiny cobalt boots, they are a Jenni signature item. I love that you are being fussy here, as there is nothing worse than having such beautiful shoes that are not comfy, a trap that I have fallen into too many times to count and have always regretted it. I have eventually learnt my lesson.</p> <p>I admire how you really stuck to your goals set in 2020 and reaped the rewards. Serendipity is a great word and I can see how perfectly it compliments your nature which is considered and conscientious, such enviable traits. Serendipity keeps you open to new opportunities and fun. You also strike me as someone who is fun too, which is why you need some perfect cobalt boots! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164746 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 04:27:21 +0000 Jenni NZ 2164746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven’t got them yet Notsaf but intend to order soon for that very reason. Would be my first order of 2021 if I go ahead. My only worry is that my only other pair of shoes from that company are not fantastically comfortable. But so long as I am willing to return I should be OK trying them out at home. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164743 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 04:17:03 +0000 notsaf 2164743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad you were able to replace your booties: those have been such as special workhorse for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-colour-2021-2022#post-2164742 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 04:14:47 +0000 rachylou 2164742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Streamlined look but maximal pattern!

Allowing good things to just happen to me is probably helpful to someone like me who can get anxious and over-plan. And also, it’s quite applicable to the situation of my daughter being rather stuck in the US, having serendipitously met her husband on the train at the San Francisco airport in 2013, and marrying him 6 years later. It reminds me that you can’t control everything in life, and especially in your children’s lives. And one helpful thing that the terrible 2020 year did for them was by being in the US rather than shifting to Vietnam for a while as proposed, his US citizenship came through in October. This could change the future for them and for any children of theirs. And it all seems a bit random. So learning to accept and even embrace such things is good for me. High five to Helena another anxious person embracing life!<br /> My colour will be blue. My favourite has gradually shifted to that over time ( in earlier years it was red, which I still enjoy), and my new top has a beautiful blue as part of it. I also may have found a replacement for my favourite cobalt boots that were scuffed/ worn out after 5 years plus 111 wears and that I put in the clothing bin last month- if they thought they were still good enough they will put them on sale in the second hand store. Someone more RATE than me may enjoy them yet.<br /> Pics below of my first wear of my new top yesterday, and the possible new boots I will probably order online to try. </p>
