Oooh, I love this outfit. Of course, because I love pattern mixing, but also because I love denim as an actual color. This is something I would wear head to toe! I'm going to come borrow that jacket, okay?

What a fantastic pairing, Angie! And your longer hair is divine. You are a style inspiration! How exciting that you are moving back to your flat! It sure seems like it's been a long time away from the castle. So glad for you and the family!

Sharan and Kelly, that's awfully high praise, and I;m blushing! Thanks soooo much

Carol, go Team Pattern Mix! Come on over and borrow my jacket.

Gorgeous as always! Nice to see the contrast between the 2 outfits, both in silhouette and palette. And yay for finishing your renovations soon

Thanks, Brooklyn! Change is good. To that point, 3 weeks and COUNTING...

Oh, how did I miss this? HUGE CONGRATS on having a moving date to get back into your home! That is so big, and it’s been a long time coming!

(We are about to go back into construction mode again soon — planning the final renovation on our home, after almost 19 years here! The main bathroom is in the planning stages. We have ordered a soaking tub and chosen tile for walls and floor. Exciting!)

Of course you look smashing as always. I would never think to pair acid wash denim with a traditional horse print, but you make it work! Your hair looks sooooo good too!

Janet, thanks for ALL the kind compliments! 3 weeks yesterday and CANNOT WAIT!!!

Good luck with the next phase of your remodel. Hope it goes fast and smoothly. Exciting!

This is a great look! The close-ups on the jeans remind me of puffy white clouds in a gorgeous blue sky.

How exciting that your move-in date is so quickly approaching. I hope the changes are everything you hope for and more.

Thanks, JennyH! Puffy white cloud scenery is dreamy. Like that analogy

#6 is stunning. What a beautiful picture!

I didn’t think anything could be better than that blue outfit - so satisfying, like a painting you can’t stop looking at. Nothing in that outfit looks neutral to me. The blue and white is vibrant and colorful to my eye, like Dutch tiles or Chinese flower pots.


But the Glam-Barbie-Jeans-Outfit is to die for!!! I know the jacket is red, but it’s skewing pink on my iPad, and I’m wondering how it would look paired with some pink and/or orange.

So fun Angie and your hair is gorgeous!

Thanks for the kind words, The Cat and Helena!

Mary Beth, such gracious compliments! Thank you. YES to Deft and Ming - I have and love both sets of crockery. AND! I love wearing pink and orange with my red jacket too

That is exciting news about your loft! I love both your outfits. I used to have a denim blazer and wore it all the time. I am on the lookout for a new one.

Stye Fan, thanks! Hope you find just the right denim blazer.

Oooh, I just saw this post, fabulous as always!!

Lovely to see you chime in JP, and thank you!
