I can't wait to bring my partner there some day and show him one of the best cities in the world (it could be number 1, if only it had Barcelona's weather). <br /><br />That is a fantastic scarf, and it just goes so perfectly with the jacket. Caroline said: "I always end up buying myself some little accessory to fit in with what the local tribes are wearing. Funny, isn't it, that instinct." Yes, it is. And I've only just realised that I do that too! I actually started wearing scarves because I was the only one in my city not wearing them one spring. Then I bought my first navy blue item of clothing (a cardigan) this year, and now I have to go back through LPC's archives and figure out what to wear it with, since I always thought that navy and black cannot go together and I wear mostly black, purple, and blue jeans (and white t-shirts, but that's a separate issue).kahliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00811942860512021126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5536011140055575088.post-63443511404779135452010-05-03T08:24:41.036-07:002010-05-03T08:24:41.036-07:00"Patsy - Just missed!

I was just commenting to my husband this morning that I was the ultimate WASP because I just put a sticker for our Episcopalian church on my '89 Mercedes sedan. Ha! He's the real WASP, I just tag along. Anyway, I LOVE your blog. I have to go to bed soon, but I will be back this weekend to peruse the archives.

Your look is TDF, that military jacket is a great piece on its own, and with that scarf it moves into the 'perfect' zone. <br /><br />We love your "They just hurry more happily." description, very apt from the sound of things. It truly is such a divine post one could "almost feel drunk" just reading it!<br /><br />Smiles at you,<br />tpWhat Kate Worehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10261712731770567440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5536011140055575088.post-10962305846908514392010-04-30T15:18:31.291-07:002010-04-30T15:18:31.291-07:00Patsy - Just missed!
