Hi Lovely YLFR'S
Took my twin to an import store I hadn't visited before. Lots of beautiful reclaimed teak and stone and well, it was gorgeous. We had a great time and met a new furfriend (whose picture I have included). He is 17 years old, a Jack Russell long hair and his name is Murphy!
I wore my gap navy polkdot shirt
LLbean cream and navy boatneck stripe
WHBM blue jeans
Cold Water creek brown boots
Ann Taylor citron scarf
Eddie Bauer khaki field jacket.
Opinions are always appreciated!

Oh he is so cute! :)
I love the idea of layering this shirt over a striped top - such simple yet sophisticated pattern mixing! I also love the yellow and navy combo.

I love the citron and navy! Great layering. Cute little fur friend too.

I'm in love with the sr. citizen pup. So adorable. We need to adore our human sr.'s the way we fall all over the elder furfriends. But I digress...
Your style is emerging by leaps and bounds Meredith. YLF!!! This is my favorite of yours, because you wear the striped top and boots so well.

Meredith -- very refined, but still casual style! Love the stripe and polka dot together. I think Navy is a great neutral tone for you, along with the cream. The stripe boatneck is an amazing fit!

Oh, the yellow and the boots slay me! Even the animals are drawn to you in this fab outfit!

I like your pattern-mixing, and the scarf and boots really add polish to the outfit. You look great. The dog is adorable--thanks for sharing his photo with us.

You have a twin? Cool! I love your outfit. It's a great combination of all of the pieces. The yellow scarf looks great with it and really jazzes it up! I love the boots, too (and of course your furry friend)

I love each and every layer of this outfit. It was like watching you get dressed to scroll through the photos. You look fabulous and it's such fun to find a new shop.

You look adorable, Meredith :)
And Murphy is the best 17 year old doggie I have ever seen in my life!!! MY WORD.

Meredith, such fantastic layering, and I'm so happy you found the boatneck that fits just-so! And what a sprightly silvery-whiskered gent you're dating too :-D

I didn't know you had a twin! You look great and the polka dot+stripes and navy, cream and citron combo is super fab! Cute doggie too!

Ladies and Angie,
I am overwhelmed with all the positive response both to the outfit and as ManidipaM put it "the silver whiskered gent" (aka Murphy the "sr. citizen" as dubbed by CocoLion.
CocoLion,
You are so right that we need to treat our human sr. citizens as kindly and lovingly as many of us treat our canine sr citizens. But, you know there are some people in this world (sadly) who treat both with brutality.
Angie,
That little doggie is pretty sprightly for 17. His legs are so short he kind of cha-cha's when he walks, although it could just be a touch of arthritis.

You look amazing ! I love the yellow on you. I also keep meaning to comment on your make up, it is just so flattering and natural.
Murphy is pretty darned cute.
Great outfit Meredith! In addition to everything everyone else mentioned, I love the field coat! Super cool and utilitarian. :)

This outfit is so great Meredith - I love the tucked jeans into boots, the striped top, the yellow scarf (which you always tie so perfectly) - it all works so well on you! And "hello" to handsome Murphy!

Isabel, Claire, Shannon,
Thanks for liking the outfit and admiring Murphy!
