OOTD: Casual Festive Fair Isle

LOTS to celebrate today

The first COVID-19 vaccinations were given to Seattle healthcare workers on the front-lines this morning .....

24 years of marriage to my soul mate.....

Wearing boots for the first time since March.....

Naked skin is rash-free....

Sam and I stayed dry on our walk.....

2 more weeks of 2020......

Today was a regular WFH day with errands and doggie walks, all on foot and in the city. The Fair Isle jumper was a thoughtful gift from a Fabber, and is fun to wear at this time of year. Dutch orange Christmas!

The rest in my usual mix of old and new, trendy and classic, tailoring and fluidity, lots of colour, white footwear, shiny pearls, crisp polish, extreme comfort, and Sam in tow.

Straightened my hair for a change.

COVID continues to ravage the US and we are still in partial lockdown. Life is very restricted, and will get a little tougher before things look better in the Spring and Summer. But there is light at the end of the tunnel. Hanging in there a little longer. Onward we go!

Thanks for looking

Gorgeous outfit Angie, you are the Queen of Colour ! And congratulations and Happy Anniversary to you and Greg.
And yes hang in there re the restrictions. We have had an extended period of very tight restrictions and we do now seem to have things under control and are slowly returning a new normal. It is great news about the vaccine but I am wondering how people feel about a vaccine that has been created so quickly and without extensive testing? I have to admit I feel a little anxious about it, but I am not in the high risk group and I think it will be awhile before it's offered to my age group.

Thanks, Debs. Glad Australia is doing so well! The vaccine has been very tricky business. I'm positive, and will also be one of the last groups to be vaccinated.

Beautiful outfit and colors on beautiful you. Sam is such a sweetie. He needs a coordinating jumper or a blue coat. He looks ready to open his presents wearing that festive collar.

Roxanna, that's high praise, thank you. And YES to the combo of both brights. That's why I believe you can't see colours in isolation.

Unfrumped, Slim cat and Nikki, thank you!

kkards, Fair Isle with jeans and refined boots - just for you.

Sal, this time next year, our world will be normal

Windchime and Elle, how nice that you chimed in! Appreciate it. Hope you and your tribes are well.

Happy anniversary to you and Greg. You look beautiful. It’s a great day for sure. Lots to celebrate.

I can’t wait for vaccinations to come. Most hopeful that my m-i-l will be receiving hers soon. From what I’m reading, senior assisted living people may be getting them soon, within the month. She says she’s waiting with her arm hanging out the door, ready for the shot, as soon as they can get it. Neither she nor we are the least bit afraid because she has been stuck in her building, under good care, since last March 13. We talk to her every day, have seen her from a distance, but it’s difficult.

As soon as it’s available to us, DH and I will both be taking it. And as soon as possible thereafter, we’ll head for Colorado to see our daughter and her husband and our two little grandsons.

I am not worried about the vaccine.
