I have also changed from summer floral fragrances and treated myself to Guerlain's Mitsouko and L'Heure Bleue eaux des parfums (is that the correct plural?) Before I only had eau de toilette and the difference is quite remarkable, much deeper fragrance in both perfumes, these are my two current favourites. I might treatmyself to those L'Oréal lipsticks as (a) I've never had L'Oréal lipstick before but I like their Age Perfect face creams and (b) they will look good also with my grey highlighted hair and mainly black, navy, white 'uniform'! Thank you for showing them - I've been searching for new lipsticks for a while now. <br />Margaret P<br />galanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14190356279359463949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-28026440868351878502017-09-18T09:43:24.505-07:002017-09-18T09:43:24.505-07:00Yes to the red! and Yes to Le Labo!

I got so well organized with closet and storage design there is no clutter. That said, I'm sure I could do an elimination exercise. When the mood strikes, it will happen. No date and time...yet!

What would I do without Janice Riggs? My wardrobe is getting smaller and I am travelling much lighter. I still have to work through some cupboards. I'm reading a mystery by Jo Nesbo "The Snowman". I'm not really enjoying it because it's very dark. I'm in New York and I read a little in the evening.

And I am occasionally leaving my chin length bob natural. That's a big change, but I am having fun with it. I love fall and adore fall clothing. So even on warmer days, I rely on darker colored tees with my capris. I was on a ballerina flat kick for awhile and now I would like some booties. Looking for the ideal pair.
