My favourites are #9-11. Beautiul colour combos for you. Your flares look gorgeous. And your haistyle is very chic. And OF COURSE 'brown is better on you than black and grey'. Because you have warm colouring.

All those years when retail was heavily dominated by black and grey must have been difficult for people with warm colouring.

It is great to see people dressed in colours which really suit them, not just colours which are "in." So while it is wonderful that warm neutrals are back in fashion, noone should feel a pressure to wear browns just because these are trending now. Any trending colour is not necessarily the best choice for any person.

What! a big slouchy cross body bag ! You know I love that. You look spectacular in all your browns, and this hair length and color really suit you beautifully. Love the bootleg red jeans on you. Your browns are gorgeous on you!

Your slim fit jeans are fabulous! I am actually more comfortable in my slim straights than in wide leg or even regular fit pants.
And is that Sam in the last photo? Such a cutie patootie!

Lovely outfits Angie - I enjoy seeing what changes in your outfits and what stays the same. You look great in these warm browns - I can relate to some struggles with brown - I had a brown school uniform too!

Love the red flares on you, and both jackets.

I have one pair of slim jeans still, and some work trousers that are tailored but not wide leg. I do plan to keep at least one pair of slim fit jeans in my closet because there are days when they feel right.

Kate, thank you!


JAIlleen, such kind words, and I appreciate them! YES, Sam continues to play and chase balls. Sooo clever! His sense of smell and hearing are excellent. We call his ears his “eye-ears”. Bless your Bob Barker for making extra use of his sense of taste

The Cat, such wise words and I’m in full agreement. I was one of those people who struggled with the plethora of fashionable black and grey - especially back in the ‘90s. Good thing we have choices! Thanks for the awfully kind words too!

Jaime, another who loves the red flared wool trousers! Blushing at your smashing compliments, and of course - I feel extra connected to you when I sport my gigantic red crossbody

Karie, interesting! Wear what makes you feel your best, and yes that’s our sweet Sam in the last pic. Full of kisses!

Sal, AHA! You get the brown school uniform thing! Almost scared for life, but not quite. Thanks for the lovely compliments, and agree that slim bottoms can come in handy

HI, SAM!
I feel warm and cozy, yet infinitely cool, just looking at the aviator jacket.
Also, tearing my eyes away from the scene-stealing pup, I love the orange sweater with the red eyeglasses.

Fab outfits, like always. I think brown is another great color for you.

Love these! You are so good with reds! But my favorite is the orange pleather with cream. Love it. And the brown aviator. So many fun looks to enjoy.

Thanks so much!

JoyceB, browns are better for me than I gave them credit for

Robin F, reds are "neutral" - and orange is not far behind!

OMG, the last pictie had me melted-a candy to my eyes, you both!
Now imagine my 6 yrs old dalmatian doing the same thing...she is a big girl, now!!:-))
Always love to sneak peek into your colorful wardrobe-and am amazed how well your browns do with every other brights! Love those new booties, they really are sharp! And the red bag! It is new to me to see you with a more "unstructured" bag-love you play with swapping the straps.
I was a victim of the black and grey era, too, but it coincided with my rise in profesional carreer so was quite a good change still wear as I have greyish (bluey-green) eyes and still find blacks edgy somehow, although nowadays I am looking to find rather some of more distressed blacks (and usually textured) than the jet blacks of my younger times.

It's a delight to see how you've integrated browns into your wardrobe. I'm especially fond of the red and brown combination in #9, these two colors are lovely paired together! Second favorite is the orange and tan in #19, simply a delightful pairing!

How fun that the new bomber jacket became an instant workhorse (I love when that happens). It's also a real treat to see a variety of pant silhouettes, you wear all styles so well. And it's fun to change up from wide legs every once in a while. The new to you Mulberry bag is a gorgeous shade of red and perfect paired with the sour colors and brown. What an excellent addition from your friend!

Thank you so much!

Lyn67, hugs to your sweet dalmatian! I want to see her. YES! It's new to see me with such an unstructured bag. When it's soooo perfect, how can I not wear it

Lisa, go Team Browns! Never say never, right That goes for wearing multiple pants silhouettes too. You bat for the same team! Simply delighted with my "new" bag.

I love the aviator jacket on you - it's amazing at how much nicer it is on you than the model picture - the collar looks lighter and brighter than the beige of the model picture and it makes all the difference.

I love your old jeans - I always think of them as being your Versace jeans (even though they are not) and love the euro glamness of them. Your hair is super sharp, a great new look!

Bijou, lovely to see you chime in! I miss your incredible outfits. Thanks for the lovely compliments! A sharp haircut can do wonders for one's style
