Not that I wanted blacks for her anyway, but for ex. NO black clothes, shoes or bags in her book- for a million bucks..cuz it ages her:-)) and then, that will age us(the family members, too:-))...Isn't She right?<br /> . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-and-my-mom/page/2#post-468974 Thu, 17 Nov 2011 13:18:42 +0000 Sona 468974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz- what a heartwarming post. I think this solidifies for me what Angie says that first and foremost fashion should be fun and that fashion knows no age limitations!

I definately gave up on making clothing fun after I lost my dear mother - she was such an elegant, fun lady who loved to spice up her outfits and was an inspiration to me. Every moment is precious, so enjoy. Your mother is so lucky to have a sweet, caring daughter.

What a great Mom and daughter moment!!! Isn't it amazing how moms can still pick up on the vibe of their kids!!!!! Amazing!<br /> Did she try on your booties Suz??<br /> Might I suggest another store to look at for nice skirts?<br /> <a href="http://www.nygard.com/tan-jay-clothing/Skirts/?fit=Petite" rel="nofollow">http://www.nygard.com/tan-jay-.....fit=Petite</a><br /> My Mom likes the Alia brand of that company---their SA had to convince her she was a petite and not a large--sometimes moms are kookoo too! ;+) Love her! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-and-my-mom#post-468676 Wed, 16 Nov 2011 23:45:30 +0000 tarzy 468676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Now we know where you get your style from.<br /> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-and-my-mom#post-468673 Wed, 16 Nov 2011 23:44:13 +0000 Amy 468673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's such a lovely story!

Thanks for posting it. </p> <p>Do tell darling Mum that she is NEVER too old to enjoy fashion! I would recommend "Munro" booties. </p> <p>You are a great daughter! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-and-my-mom#post-468638 Wed, 16 Nov 2011 23:02:14 +0000 Suz 468638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the ideas, ladies! Funnily enough, my own booties are from Siebel, Sveta. The ones I was wearing for the YLF gathering. But the heel would be a bit much for her. Still, we can look for other types. </p> <p>If you could hear the way she enunciated the word "bootie" you would smile even more. It was SO cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-and-my-mom#post-468628 Wed, 16 Nov 2011 22:39:19 +0000 rae 468628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is pretty fantastic! Maybe she was disinterested because midis and booties had fallen off the fashion radar? </p> <p>As a high heels gal, I don't have any good recs for you, but I'm sending good vibes that you will find the perfect ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-and-my-mom#post-468625 Wed, 16 Nov 2011 22:38:36 +0000 Sveta 468625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Suz, what a wonderful story! You mom sounds such a delight!<br /> I don't have any experience with dressing 87 year old ladies but these booties should be very comfortable for elderly feet. You may try Clarks or J.Siebel for flat or very low heel booties.<br /> Have fun with your mom shopping! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-and-my-mom#post-468624 Wed, 16 Nov 2011 22:36:36 +0000 morethanbeige 468624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a touching post.

I LOVE how your Mum is taking an interest in fashion, and how fab that you were wearing your booties so you could show her on the spot!!</p> <p>Can your Mum still wear a very low heel, Suz? And would these be for pants or dresses and skirts?</p> <p>I was thinking of something like this, but I also loves Joy's idea of lighter grey.</p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/product/7804141/color/3" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/product/7804141/color/3</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.clarksusa.com/eng/product/carly_allison/33439" rel="nofollow">http://www.clarksusa.com/eng/p.....ison/33439</a></p> <p>Thank you so much for sharing this with us! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-and-my-mom#post-468593 Wed, 16 Nov 2011 21:57:27 +0000 Vani 468593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aww...this makes me miss my mom.
