7. You really make it look so effortless, and you ALWAYS dress so elegant, even when casual. Love the striped maxi on you. I love how you mix the patterns but still look like a minimalist. Impressive. Please keep blogging- I know it seems narcissistic but consider how we need more real life inspiration on +40 style, and you def are just the panacea for any fuddy-duddy duds. xo.

12. Hi Jeannie! I love your outfit today, especially the scarf! Usually McQueen is a bit much for my taste, but on you and the way you put it together, I love it! ~Patricia

    • Thank you Patricia!
      I know what you mean about the scarf. Most of McQueen scarves are a bit too edgy for me but it was a love at first sight for this one. I really love the size and the pattern.

13. You always look so chic! Love the neutral tones!

    • Thanks Marie! Yes, the colors are nice on this dress. Although I love bright & happy colors, I’m drawn to neutrals most of the time. Have a fabulous week!

18. Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous–and the scarf was the PERFECT finishing piece!

    • Thank you, thank you, thank you! You’re a sweetheart!

19. Hey Jeannie, I really like maxis with blocks of color like yours, but haven’t tried that style yet. Do you plan on winterizing your maxis? If so how do you plan on doing it? Sad I’ll have to put mine away in a month or two.

    • Hi Sheila!
      Since I live in the South, I’ll be definitely donning maxis this fall. Throw on a cardigan/jacket and a scarf and VOILA! 🙂 Booties go great with maxis, too!

20. Beautiful scarf!

    • Thanks Kathleen!

21. Hi Jeannie. I love this dress. I love the pattern and I love the colors, it’s beautiful. The scarf is beautiful and also combines beautifully. A great outfit. The hair picked up on you is great.

      I’m very fond of the color combo as well. A neutral at its best! 🙂

22. So pretty Jeannie! Love the big bold stripes paired with the details in the scarf. Very nice!!!

26. Each piece is amazing – they combine to make the perfect outfit!

    • Elisa, you make it sound like an art….thank you so much!
      Honestly, I’m having some thoughts about continuing to blog. It seems silly sometimes to take photos of outfits for all to see. What’s the point? It’s been one of those days today. 😦

      • It sounds like an art because you are an artist! I enjoy your blog so much because it’s different and fun. You keep it varied because you incorporate interesting tidbits and themes into your posts. I never had a plan when I decided to blog, which is why I struggled there for a while. Now it’s almost like an online journal….it will be fun to reflect on it when I’m older, and cherish the friends I’ve made along the way. Hang in there, friend, and keep on posting!!

        Elisa

        • Thanks Elisa!

27. I love this outfit, Jeannie! As always, you wear everything so well. I hope you had a great weekend!

    • Thanks Becky!
      My weekend was very busy. Son’s starting a new job soon and we had to find him an apartment, furniture and everything in between. I’m excited for him, but this mama’s tired. We’ll be moving him this weekend…no rest for moi.
      Hope you have a great week!

      • Good luck to your son in his new job! Prayers for you that you get through all the transition!

        • Thanks Becky!

28. What a fabulous look!
    I’m so loving it and it works perfectly with my current love of all things grey.
    Cheers,
    Laura

    • Laura, I been loving your posts on grey…beginning to really love that color!

      • I always liked it but in working on these posts I too have fallen in love with it! I want more in my wardrobe and more in my home. Just need to figure out how?! 🙂

        Laura
