I hope you have festive plans for New Year's Eve, unless of course you prefer low-activity plans like us. It'll be a casual dinner and a Netflix movie and a toast to another year together. Good times.
This last picture for 2012 was taken at the old cottage just before we moved, and it brings sweet memories. My outfit was colorful (for me!) and cozy: my cobalt knit pencil skirt, thrifted wrap sweater and thrifted vintage Hermes-wannabe scarf. I feel visible and pulled together and ready for new adventures. Bring on 2013!

ReplyDeleteYou look fabulous!! Thanks for hosting Visible Monday!!! Happy New Year and herre's to a more fabulous and visible 2013!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a Wonderful New Year!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Patti! I will post up a picture tomorrow. I like the bright pop of your skirt. Your New Year sounds lovely, and I was planning something similar, but our 'charming' neighbour is planning a party, and this means repetitive stupid music til late, so we are out to a concert then coming in and playing white noise to block it out. With champagne though :-)
ReplyDeleteYou look beautiful and happy, Patti - nice to see one last picture of your old posing station (complete with "you bore us" cat toy, lol). Thank you for your wonderful inspiration and for bringing so many visible women out of the woodwork!
ReplyDeleteI love the vibrancy of this outfit.
ReplyDeleteLove that bright blue, what a great colour on you, Patti.
ReplyDeleteWe are off to a friend's for a NYE party, kids in tow, but it's only a few doors down the road so very handy! I'll try and get a photo of whatever I wear and link up.
Thank you for all the Visible Mondays and for being such a delightful hostess, all year round!
Happy New Year to you! xxxx
I love that colour of blue on you. You should wear it more often!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Patti! All the best in 2013

ReplyDeleteYou look lovely in colors. You should wear color more often. I am looking forward to a wonderful new year of Visible Monday's. Happy New Year to you and Sandy.
ReplyDeleteThe scarf is a beautiful splash of color, especially with the blue skirt. Happy New Year Patti! Enjoy it and many more days to come!

ReplyDeleteThank you being such a lovely hostess for Visible Monday. I've enjoyed reading your blog this year and look forward to your posts for 2013. Happy New Year to you!
ReplyDeleteThank you Patti for this blog. Did you know that you have changed my life? In what I wear of course, but there is something deeper and it is good. So thanks, and Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteElegant and visible! Gorgeous look.
ReplyDeleteWishing you the best in 2013!
You look both chic and comfortable. I like the red pop in the scarf with the blue skirt to jazz up the tan sweater.
ReplyDeleteAnd I have to add my thanks to you for hosting this. No place I'd rather be on Monday!
Lovely way to tie the scarf to pair well with the longer neckline of your top.
ReplyDeleteHi Patti, great colors on you here!
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing! These soft colors are so flattering. Our plans for today are low-activity as well and my outfit more comfy than chic. Happy New Year, dear Patti!
ReplyDeletePatti...your little wrap jacket/top is very flattering. I'm sure it will be one of the most versatile pieces in your closet.
ReplyDeleteLove your blue skirt :) Thanks so much for hosting,Happy New year ...
