Picasso: variations on a theme

Love these bright spring colors.

Photo 1 & 2: The plaid makes me look heavy even with the shirt belted. Worth a try right?
Photo 3: Astro asks to be excused. He had to bark at something in the front yard!
Photo 4: I think I like this one best. ( Picked up this bag at Target yesterday just for the color. What do you think?)
Photo5: nothing spectacular just experimenting. Suggestions for improvement?

I like all the outfits! And how cute--your dog is coordinating with you! What about unbelting the first look and wearing the shirt open, with your column of white underneath. I do love the plaid with the white jeans on you. And the fun, feminine red flats to play off the lumberjack plaid!
The new bag is a gorgeous color for spring.

You nailed it with your sweet Astro, QG. #3 might steal the show. What breed is your baby?

I think #4 is killer (my sugar eye for white-out). I like the nautical vibe in #5 as well. The colour of that bag is DELICIOUS. I want a bag that colour too. Aren't I greedy?

But #2 has my heart. What a stylish little duo. LOVE. Well done.

Ooh, what fabulous outfit! Hard to pick a favourite, but I think I'll go with #4, though I love the plaid in 1 and 2. Your pooch is so cute too!

Astro is a rescue from the SPCA. (2009) Our vet believes he is a Morkie... a Maltese (He does have that loooong body) and a Yorkie...dark tips on his face and ears.

These are lovely outfits - 5 is my favourite. Your little dog is gorgeous.

Morkie is FAB. Lucky that you and Astro found each other.

OMG, that first photo is just the most beautiful, natural shot. It looks like something out of a magazine -- who is your professional photographer? S/he has a great eye. I love the movement in your photos, it really shows how the outfits look IRL. They are all lovely. I like Firecracker's suggestion for unbelting the jacket. My favourite is the white outfit with just the touch of red and that blue bag. What a find! Though clearly Astro is the best find of all. What an adorable little fellow.

Cute dog - I love his little sweater. I think these are all nice outfits. That bag is such a great color for spring. I think my favorite is #4. I like the white out look with the colored accessories.

The pictures with Astro are beautiful. I think I would try dropping the belt with the first outfit. The white out is gorgeous and the jacket in the last oufit is terrific!

Love #1, your Morkie, and your new robin's egg bag. Picasso would have painted you holding Astro and the bag for sure.

These are fantastic, and little Astro is adorable! I love each of these outfits, but I have to say that my very favorite is the last one. Beautifully done, and I can see the inspiration art in all of them!

Oh you had me at Astro! Morkie indeed! I had a maltese mix growing up, and now we've added Yorkie to our family (with a shihtzu-bichon big brother). Love love love the little guys And your outfits are great too. The last one is my absolute fav. Effortless chic. That Target bag is awesome.

Everyone-Astro says thanks for your comments. He would really like you to come and visit so he could sit on your lap. . .all 7 pounds of him!

Firecracker- good idea. I think I would put a form fitting tee on to follow your suggestion, rather than the two blouses. I think the line would be better.

Aliona- Thank you for complementing our accidental shot. The camera was on a tripod with a 10-second delay.

SarahTheWhite and Jackie- Thanks for the encouragement on #5. I thought it was a little predictable but maybe the leather jacket and unusual purse color take it up a notch.

Joy- you are right. Mr Astro is a great subject for painting!

Shevia- thanks for your comments on both my recent posts. Much appreciated.

Sarah L.- Number 4 is out of my comfort zone, but I think it is my fav too...followed by 5

I don't see heavy, and love your cute little dog! Expect a killer rating on nr 4 from Angie, and love the new bag(not only for the color, but I like the last one, too! Balanced color blocking-which I love!
