Gorgeous as usual! I love that color on you and the necklaces are perfect! So nice to hear about your lunches with your mom, love her pretty floral top.

Oh wow! I feel honoured to have glimpsed your beautiful mother! I can see the resemblance. And we know where you get your love of florals! Love how colour coordinated you were. She looks so happy to be with you, and no wonder.

You and your mother look gorgeous--her garden is a fitting backdrop for her lovely floral top. I continue to admire your midi skirt and tall boots collections! Thanks for sharing your beautiful pup with us.

You look stunning as usual and it’s so great to see your Mum. She is beautifully dressed too. Great job on her haircut. I was very lucky to have happened to get my hair cut on 14 August before our shock lockdown on 17 August. Otherwise it would have been my DH cutting it a bit for me like last year.

How cool! You guys are quite coordinated!

Thanks everyone for the lovely comments and lockdown empathy. And thanks for all the compliments to my mum. I will be sure to pass them on. I am happy that we’ve been able to eke something good out of these times.

I don’t know about the teal boots. The heel height is the main issue. I really prefer a lower heel from a practicality perspective. I walked about 6 km in the burgundy pair yesterday no problems. Plus I like the juxtaposition of a flatter, more casual boot against a dressy skirt. But I’m definitely going to think on it some more. (If someone on the forum buys them, I may crack!)

NM, I didn’t see that jacket. Now I will have to spend some quality Saturday time browsing Boden!

Lozz, I liked the first lockdown better. When hairdressers were open!

Super glam as usual! your mum is also a fab dresser and you cut her hair very well! I like that you coordinated colours in the outfits!

Wow!! You look amazing, and so does your mother!

Absolutely gorgeous -- you, your mother, your dog, the garden. I'm off for lunch with my mom today, too. It's always a balance for me between dressing up a little to see her, and also knowing that she will ask me to work on something around the house and that I might end up changing lightbulbs in heels.

Gosh two of the loveliest ladies ever!! Mom looks fantastic. Just vibrant. I love you outfit color is wonderful a it still has all the elegance and interest just more subtle. Necklaces are great. You talents are endless with haircuts! You are very resourceful!!

Brooklyn, from experience, I would suggest not buying the boots with too high a heel. I just do not wear mine, beautiful as they are, own 4 pairs with only moderate heels and so far this year have worn one of them once
Flatter boots, 12 wears for olive pair, 31 wears for Minx metallic pair, and 7 wears for cobalt pair. It’s a very obvious difference.

Thanks Jenni. I was thinking the same thing. I have only one pair of tall boots now that has a 5 cm heel and I have not worn them at all this year (admittedly the lockdown may have affected this). Flatter boots are way more practical for me.

UmmLila thanks! I leave a set of “work clothes” at my mum’s place for when I mow her lawns in summer and do other jobs around the house. Maybe you could do the same?

And thanks minaminu, Theresa and Gryffin!

Love the burgundy on you its so elegant and is really nice with your Moms florals. The boots are great I'm usually on the lookout for a slim calf boot . Having said that I don't wear them as much as I used to, my life is so casual these days.

Brooklyn, both you and your Mum look so beautiful. I am sorry that you have been in such a long and strict lockdown. As someone who is fully vaccinated, I am looking forward to when everyone has the opportunity to receive the vaccine and life can return to normal. You have done so well to keep dressing up and looking gorgeous for your visits with your Mum. She looks so happy to be with you. My Mum always loved me to dress up when I visited her. I remember dropping my son off at school and a friend asked where I was going to and thought it was brilliant that I was all dressed up for a visit with my Mum.

I would love to find a pair of tall burgundy boots like that! They are fantastic, as is the whole look!

I'm happy you shared this post with us. You look great in the burgundy outfit, and as always, each item chosen very carefully. I try to do that but don't always succeed, by no means. I sure recognize it when I see it on you and others.
Your Mom is very pretty, I agree with all the other comments on her top and necklace and I want to mention the color of her hair. So pretty and shiny. And her lipstick is gorgeous, very pretty color, and applied so well, and the color matches her pants and top perfectly. If I didn't think it is highly unlikely during the lockdown, I would think she had gone to a nice beauty counter and had her makeup done! Obviously, I don't look at ALL details Ha, and sorry. And I love the ring she has added.
I'm glad you both enjoyed your time together.
