The brits

My, my, my.... The last time I checked we are not british. The last time I checked we most certainly not pirates and therefore I don't speak pirate. But my son start talking to me his own version of british accent. He's funny and it doesn't surprise me a bit but I still can't keep a straight face. I have to go to the other room and laugh so he doesn't see me. He even practice reciting his poem at home with a british accent. He's serious about it and I don't want to hurt his feelings. I just let him. It is so amazing how we see ourselves in our children. I see myself in my son in many ways. Like him being funny, intuitive, full of life, too opinionated and talkative. He's extremely closed to both me and his dad but there are things that he's a lot more comfortable doing just in front of me. I asked him why? He says, because dad is always serious(true). I am most silly with my son than my husband but I can be tough and means business when there is a need for it. 

Then the other day, I chaperone my son's class field trip. A classmate of his came up to me and asks, Dylan's mom are you british? Ha, ha ha, I am not. Dylan says you are :).

Also if not speaking in a british or pirate accents cracks me up every now and then, once in a while my son will call me Mama Gertrude.... Not sure but your guess is as good as mine.

Now let's talk about outfit....

As I am showing a new found likeness for shades of gray, I also rekindle my old love for olive and turtle neck sweaters. This skirt's true color is olive green and it didn't show much on my pictures(sigh).

Thank you from the heart.

Finally it's Fall

Hi everyone. Happy Thursday. It was Fall like weather yesterday and I did not hesitate for a minute to wear a new favorite cashmere sweater. Funny how I say "fall like weather" when indeed it is really fall but not until yesterday that he did get to experience chillier temperature comparable to high 80's in the last few weeks. I been into turtle necks style sweater lately and when I saw this at the store, I just fell in love. I got them in regular instead of my normal petite size because I want it to hang looser and a tad longer. For style and for hiding my food belly when I eat too much :). On a much taller person, the sweater could have been just below your hip bone. The length, higher slit on both sides as well as the front pockets are great fresh takes and modernize an old classic style. As I recall telling you guys that I do not like gray color that much, well I have a change of heart. I am into grays shopping and hunting lately. 

I hope you have a great day and fabulous halloween weekend ahead. 

Thank you from the heart.

xoxo
