Now then - a domestic skunk would definitely match Shanza'a home decor! ;]

I want those shoes! Great sweater - definitely worth finding a smaller size. Fab collar.

Tell him you'd like a little blue box for Easter!!!!! ;]

TOOOOOOOO CUTE! Bobby wants a play date in Texas. All your fur family members match the decor. Thanks for sharing! Made my day. ;]

Great color blue on you! Reminds me of the famous Tiffany blue box a lady always delights in receiving... What fun to have supportive and enthusiastic co-workers! Hang in there, I do believe Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow?

Oh my... stand aside. We are talking seriously about a fashionista in bloom. What a joy and privilege to see your artistic and wonderful sense of style evolve. Not to mention that cookie to die for! These stretch pants AB without any clutter (pockets, zippers, flaps etc.) are sooooo flattering, lengthening and show off that terrific figure of yours! Killer outfit.

You're worth the splurge for just one if you really love it... I'd go for it! The quality, look and fit are impeccable especially on your figure. Seriously though. When hand washed and cared for properly these timeless shirts will last me many many years to come vs. me buying + replacing inexpensive things over and over again. For myself - it's a better investment. And, I really don't like shopping for clothes for the sake of it. After replacing and refining this final wardrobe - I probably won't shop for another three years unless it be a fun thing now and then, especially vintage or upscale consignment items. I'll have plenty strategic mix and match + reinventions... so I can still participate on the thread! Haha. That's just me. Definitely I'd shop more economically if I liked ample variety, trends or tired of clothing quickly. We are each having fun in our own ways! Lot's of experimentation with our new found figures, too! BUT I do think that shirt is a worthy investment in you and after all your hard work. And, I do hope you will reconstruct that gorgeous wedding gown and wear it again. Just saying... ;]

I think I'd keep those very cool sneakers under lock and key. Silly Kitty maybe on the prowl... Looking amazing MOC!

Tooo cute! What's puppies name? Love Bobby's polka dotted belly, too! Shanza you are killing it, girl. Looking great.

AND eight wonderfully more inches! Wow. ;[

And, I'm dating # 93!

Gotta LOVE this guy! Right? Adorable...

Yes, I'm afraid I'm taking after you! But you know when something feels good and fits just right (I guess that could be misconstrued...) LOL! Like the NYDJ - Marilyn straights from Bloomingdales are the best fitting jeans and soooo comfortable... And, I scoured everywhere! I now own them in 4 flavors. Just need an off white pair. Tomorrow morning is in the low sixties - so plan to wear the blue pair with my favorite sweater. Yay!

LOVE IT. LOVE IT. LOVE IT! You are such a beauty...

Great outfit! I really like the belt and loafers. Really looking sharp Ms. AB! Wow.

A wonderful find, right!? Purchased these ever so soft t-shirts in white, black and pale citron made by SeebyChloe at Saks Fifth Avenue.

Smoking hot, Mr. Jake. You are definitely off to an awesome day. Happy Tuesday!

Here's the back detailing of the new blouse I spoke about earlier. Belt artisans from Etsy that I really liked were Dragos @ SoS Collections and Vladislava @ PLIKbrand. There is a wide variety to select from depending upon your tastes. OOTD is new black jeans and top for mother Smith's 85th birthday celebration today! She still enjoys wearing pretty lipstick and getting manicures. B-day posies to cheer up her apartment. She was a Naval nurse (24) stationed in San Diego when pregnant with her first son, my hubs. She hid it for as long as she could because back in those days (1959) when the head nurse learned one was with child... You were automatically discharged from duty as an officer! Incredulous! ;[ Really. I love all her fascinating stories including that one.

WOW! FABULOUS! I need to sit down. Like can we be anymore drop dead gorgeous with that tucked in fitted shirt, belt and blue jeans. I agree with BF show off those assets. The V neck is so very flattering... Meow.

Not fair! When you reach your goal, then share. I wish we'd have a snow day. Winter has been so hot, boring and monotonous here this year... Love your pics with snowscapes. Send more.

You are looking amazing!!!!! Ms. Shanza! I LOVE polka dots. Send us more... ;]

I think we definitely have a live wire in Ms. November 11 from Jersey! She is adorbs - as ms.sss would say! Haha.

Oh, I thought I was sequestered from commenting as a Mrs. to the single men! Haha! Shirt's a little too large... Mr. Jake H. definitely needs to show off his buff and upper body. Jake, are you familiar with a great British men's polo line called Psycho Bunny? My husband loves the fit and finish - just like the RL line you both like and priced accordingly. AND, just in time for Easter, right? LOL. ;]

Oh my, I don't even want to tell you what the tab of final wardrobe updates after plastics. I tend to be a high-quality, low volume shopper seeking classics that last for decades. Only at this stage in life a few decades - I'll be 80! But, what the hell. I'll economize in other areas. Haha. Having a few fab custom thick leather belts (corset styled) made by Etsy gifted artisans from eastern Europe for a fraction of the cost. For the more trendy stuff - I adore our local consignment shops and estate sales or deeply discounted department store sales. Seriously though, I am looking forward to a dependable more stabilized closet. Here's one of the new blouses the new belts will go with. Of course, all the new jeans in several flavors are being hemmed for the shrimp. Oh, and my new warm hoodie - we finally got cooler temps this weekend!

Look at that ADORABLE cookie! What a cool outfit.
