Wearing the Jackets

My sister and mother came for a visit today. I asked my sister Meg took some pictures of me wearing both recent jackets. The good part about this is that she is interested in flattery and not just getting it over with. She would say things like "Put your chin down" and "You need lipstick"

This is with my recent black denim trousers and the new handbag Mum and Meg brought for my birthday.

Close ups wearing both jackets. I like the tweed one better than I did before

Your jacket look very nice. You should get a lot of wear from them. The handag is great-look like something I would carry! Nice job.

You did a wonderful job on your jackets. They fit you so well. I love the color of the handbag :)

Nice job! The tweed one is nice, but I like the colour of the teal one. Your sister Meg, must be a wonderful loving sister to care that you looked nice. And your mum and sis have wonderful tastes in Coach purses!

P.S. Nice necklace too...is it new? It matches your jacket.

Thans Gwen, Ann and Marg. The necklace was actually from Meg to Maisie. I put it on to try to get her to wear it and forgot to take it off. There are 4 real forget-me-knots encased in something clear. It is cute.

Well you have certainly outdone yourself with the two gorgeous jackets and lots of birthday fun with family. The "ladies" need time out to celebrate our special day. And special did you look in your beautiful teal coat and stylish black pants. Your purse was just the icing on your birthday cake.

Happy Birthday and congratulations on your two beautiful garments.

Fondly,
