Hello Friday! It’s good to see you again! Don’t you just love Friday? It’s the day that ushers in the weekend and gets the party started. I’m always happy to kick up my heels and relax. This week, yours truly was down for the count as I caught the crud that’s been going around. What with the holidays, the Mediterranean cruise, and the wedding, my body was a bit run down ‘cuz I rarely, if ever, get sick. But sick I was, and I stayed in my pajamas, ate my share of chicken noodle soup, and capped the night off with a hot toddy. I’m back in action, as I actually took a shower on Thursday and felt like a new woman! Although I still have a lingering cough, which is supposed to stick around for another week or so…but it won't stop me from kicking off the weekend with stylish winter outfits!
It’s Friday, so time to whip up a yummy recipe and cocktail with my cohorts on hand. Kelly chose a Feta cheese concoction accompanied by French bread. Give me cheese and bread any day of the week. Right?! It’s a marriage made in heaven. And who can say no to a delicious Spritz to accompany said appetizer? Yep, Friday, I’m happy to see you again.
Both of your outfits are cozy. However I find Kelly’s booties overwhelm her outfit. A more streamlined bootie might have pulled the outfit together a bit more cohesively. And the outfit really is flattering and lovely. Casual with an air of sophistication. Perfect for a social outing or a professional environment.
Fridays with Oscar!!!
You both look great … and I always appreciate Kelly’s (and your) recipes!
Although the comment has been made about Kelly’s boots: I note that in the UK heavy chelsea/safety-type boots have been worn even with flimsy evening dresses for quite a while now, and well as with winter dresses and other winter gear. I originally bought my Hi-Tech safety boots (steel to and sole) for walking in the bush with the dogs, as precaution against snakes/puddles, etc. but in the dead of winter I wear them to go to the shops. My feet stay warm and dry.
Thanks for your thoughts, Marlette – I agree, and I have always loved the fun juxtaposition of heavy-soled boots with feminine outfits. Plus, in the winter, you can’t beat the utilitarian aspect of heavier boots! Thanks again, xo Kelly
