First a big
THANK YOU
for all the lovely comments you left about yesterday "Florida Winter Fashion".
I really should have called it "Prarie Fashion©" as, in many ways, it reflects my vision of today's Prarie Style©, where fashion is concerned.
In fact, I am having my own line of
Prairie Couture™
designed and hope to have some items available late spring. Meanwhile, it's a lot of fun to play dress up with the clothes I have. But soon mine will become available. It's a long process and a difficult one to undertake because of all the magazine work I am involved with. So, one day at a time...but keep checking my blog because I will announce the Prarie Couture™ line as soon as it's ready.
Today: Not quite warm enough to wear the lighter sweater I planned on. Rummaged through my drawers and found this cropped white cashmere (about 10 years old). Combined it with the Free People top, navy leggins (same as the mustard ones of yesterday) and a pair of thigh-high flat black leaher boots (from Dillards on sale). That's good enough for inside (since I don't want to turn on the heat!) but for a trip to the store I needed to add the little leather jackets and a soft-as-a-cloud and white-as-snow scarf.
Yesterday, my friend Miranda was over so she took the photos but today I am alone, hence the shots in the mirror. Not so glamourous but will just have to do! Oui?
in front of the mirror in my bedroom....
Standing up on a little bench so you can see the boots....
with the jacket (also from Dillards--2 years ago)
and the complete Prairie outfit with the scarf (from Charlotte Russe $10.00)
STAY COZY & TOASTY!
Love the scarf and jacket. You certainly know how to pair items together for a cool look.
Have a wonderful Christmas!

Great outfit, Fifi! Love that long top and the leggings. I need to get some leggings this year to go with some of the longer tops I have. Merry Christmas!

Hi Fifi! Love the whole look you pulled together! Anxious to see your line! You are a gal of oh so many talents!

Fifi: Can't wait to see your new clothing line in action. One of your admirers beat me to the punch. She's positioning herself to be the first in line at your grand opening. I guess I'll have to settle to be second in line (sigh). Can't wait!
Merry Christmas!!!

I am way excited about Prairie Couture. Please keep me up-dated as to when it will come out. If affordable I'll buy some pieces to wear on my book signings. (The Hillbilly Debutante cafe)
