And please send a pic! ;)<br /><br />Many thanks, my dear Manuela. It was lucky it wasn’t too cold for just a blazer that day, loved the combination too &lt;3 <br /><br />Dear Paula, so lovely to having you joining us here. Combining the things we own into new looks is so much fun, love shopping my closet!<br /><br />Congratulations on the Farandole, dear Estrella! Re jewelry, I remember how my head was spinning when I bought my first enamel, spending so much on a non-precious piece made me think I lost my sanity. But I never regretted the purchase, and on a cost per way basis the price looks a lot better. One thing is certain, in a few years down the line, today’s price will look like a bargain! Oh, and they are addictive, too ;)<br /><br />Joining into the &#39;ode to accessories&#39; chant, my dear Trudye! Having the best time with this series, and so glad you enjoy it too! Love Downton Abbey!! Mwahs right back<br /><br />Thank you, my dear Melusine, so nice to hear you enjoyed the post. Have a lovely rest of the week!<br /><br />Enjoy the mild temperatures, dear NiniKnows! Most of Europe is in cold grip right now, not taking my fur collar off for a moment (and would not even mind which color it is, lol)<br /><br />Warm BdG twin hugs to you, my dearest msT! Perhaps you could try wearing black with a scarf in a cowboy knot, it can be an ideal ‘buffer’.<br /><br />Bonjour Myriam, un grand merci pour votre appréciation!<br /><br />Dear Laura, it sounds as if your BdG might be finding a new and loving home soon! Agree with you on the clic maths!<br /><br />A million thanks for the wonderful link, dear pussywillow, what a fun and useful site! I know I’ll be spending many hours playing color games over there..<br /><br />Dear CS, hope your DipDye dreams will come true one day soon. Thank you for the lovely comment, and toasting with you to black and brown, and classic scarf designs. Hope H is listening!MaiTaihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02256110739626579757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529262281526104323.post-2304375529205100382012-02-01T19:02:58.205+01:002012-02-01T19:02:58.205+01:00Oh, how I LOVE pairing black and brown! And you look absolutely stunning, dear MaiTai. Everything is done to such perfection! <br /><br />This is why I had been so disenchanted with the past two seasons. I would love to see more classic styles like the BdG again. Seriously, H, are you listening???<br /><br />LAURA: if you want to part with your BdG, please contact MaiTai. I would be interested, and positively giddy, seriously, over the top giddy, of the prospect of getting my hands on a BdG dip dye.<br /><br />Warm hugs,<br />CSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529262281526104323.post-46024580721849766782012-02-01T12:45:36.443+01:002012-02-01T12:45:36.443+01:00The dip dyes add a different textural note to your style challenge too! This BdG is perfect for you and I do like the initiating collage photo of acorns and leaves.<br /><br />The Vivienne Files yesterday highlights a site where a photo or image you select becomes the basis of a colour palette: you have mastered this already!<br /><br />http://www.cssdrive.com/imagepalette/index.phppussywillowhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16824730560199562191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529262281526104323.post-52146800949321237382012-01-31T23:01:13.685+01:002012-01-31T23:01:13.685+01:00Great look!! You always make me reconsider things, ;-). I have a BdeG Dip Dye in the plum color, but I haven&#39;t worn it yet, and it&#39;s actually in a pile of H items that I felt should find a happier home. Maybe not. I&#39;ve been eyeing a black Clic for years, and I suppose I could get the cost per wear down so low that it would seem a bargain overall.

But I have a problem getting over the hurdle of paying high prices for the non-precious pieces . I wish I could do though , when I see your photos ! A tiny word of encouragement may help please !Estrellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14547751638936574118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529262281526104323.post-71282224852615699842012-01-29T21:18:40.762+01:002012-01-29T21:18:40.762+01:00Dear Mai Tai,<br />Tres chic as always!!<br />You have that special gift.....and reminding us all that rotation of accessories is the key to a million gorgeous looks!!<br />Here in the states since the 2009 recession...we call it<br />&quot;shopping our closets&quot;!
