    K.Line-- They remind me of the black ones from your swank T.O. boutique that I queried you about . . . (And no pesky customs fees!)

    That coat is heaven. And, I love that is drawn and not photographed.

    Beautiful items. Gray is the color of the season - or so I'm told...

    Nothing crazy about that assertion. I'd wear that getup in a heartbeat.

    I adore a portrait collar. I think the dress looks so classic that you could definitely play around with the shoes.

    Oh, I think it's already cool, but the shoes really make it. What great finds, and what a great combination, miss cav!

    I would read the J. Peterman catalog as if it were a novel.

    Your new portrait collar will match my new Brooks Brothers suits...is my Mad Men obsession out-of-control?!?!?
