Phoebe - thank you so much!
Gryffin - there is something dramatic about a column of colour that makes neutrals shine rather than fade into the background. I can understand you love of black and the different looks you can achieve when wearing one colour.
N - burgundy will be a great colour with your new navy pieces. I am still swooning over your new skirt!
Slim cat - these were very simple outfits, but they felt right for what I was doing!
Rachy - when it comes to light colours I really do not worry about potential spills - that is what a washing machine and Oxyclean is there for! As soon as a I get a mark on my light colours, I reach for a wet ones wipe and usually that lifts the mark immediately.
Angie - I feel very privileged to get a K2K for my jeans and sweatshirt outfit - the colour really makes it.
Kellygirl - thank you - so glad you like both of these.
Jonesy - I did love wearing this knit dress out to dinner, it was so comfy and the sparkle made it feel special.
Chewyspaghetti - a column of colour is such a fall back for me - whether on a casual day at home or going out for dinner.
Sal - I think it would be harder for a black sweatshirt and black jeans to stand out as black is so prevalent in winter casual clothing. I have a white chiffon evening dress that is as glam as the black knit dress - but it is very sheer and I would have been cold! the black dress is so nice to wear because it is warm and dressy.
Irina - with the prevalence of earth tones this season, it seems that cream is also now available. I really like it as an alternative to white, especially in winter.
Mainlady - thank you, I really love both neutrals and enjoy the drama that both black and white provide.
JAileen - I really loved the look and feel of the sweatshirt and it was fun to revisit this look which I wore as a teen, but now in a grown up way.
Shevia - it was so lovely to be able to go out to a restaurant to celebrate DH's birthday. Unfortunately much of Australia is in lockdown due to the spread of the Delta Covid variant. In my state we are currently OK - but that can change in an instant. We have to make the most of whatever opportunities to get out and about. Fortunately both DH and I are fully vaccinated.
