With A Little Help From My Friends

This jacket is a few years old now, but still a favorite. I never get tired of simple black and white ensembles.

I love it! You look very sleek and elegant! This is ultra simple but with maximum chic.
What a great outfit! That’s a great jacket. I’ve been looking for some nice, comfortable black pants — I’ll have to try those.
I live in jeans, though I do like a decent pair of black pants too. I wore a pair of Gap black cropped Capris with a silk blouse to a party at the weekend. Your hair looks fab, I like the new colour.
I like that v-neck on you – nice collarbones! I also like your hair this way, very romantic.
Wonderful, familiar and always chic. I love your “favorites”, Une Femme. And Lars! The finest looking cat in the West!
I love the pictures of you and Lars! What a great cat, I always love coming across one of those friendly sidewalk kitties. It’s funny how they are like the mayor of whatever street they live on, and it looks like Lars is the mayor of your block!
And you look fabulous, btw! XO, Jill
Gorgeous and elegant in simplicity. Also, where do I sign up for the Lars’ Magnificent Belly Fan Club??? Love it!!!
So elegant yet easy! Lars better keep away from that black, but I couldn’t resist a pat.
Your hair looks nice.
The best friends in my wardrobe range from zip up knit slacks from the Worth Collection to Eileen Fisher pieces is viscose jersey. Almost everything in my wardrobe is a solid color—black, brown, olive, navy, a lighter blue, with the prints showing up in scarves-both high and low.
Like everyone else, I think you look great (and happy). Have a wonderful trip.
Lovely photos! The new hairstyle is beautiful. What a great idea, to think of the clothes we love wearing as friends.
This is a beautiful outfit and I would have a jacket like that in my closet for years as well…YOU are looking more and more beautiful with each picture…your hair and your complexion are glowing! Maybe it is the anticipation of a trip overseas!! You look awesome!
I love those jeans! Living in Nashville great fitting jeans are a must for me.

Before I tell you how brilliant the black and white looks, I must say your photo location is beautiful. Is that your street? Also, love me some fat cat! Have a good week, Femme, and happy trip packing.
You look fabulous ( and the feline friend too!)….. Thanks for giving us all the information as well – loving those boots. S x
Simple is beautiful.
The street behind you looks like a dreamland, yet your picture is very sharp. Good work: ).
Love your glasses, Deja! They look wonderful on you.
My best wardrobe friends are my jeans and tees. They make life easy and comfortable.
I live in jeans and tees when I’m not at work, though I need new ones, as those that I have are in very sad shape …
I just recently found your blog and I LOVE it! And the fact that you have that sweet kitty in the pictures is just icing on the cake. 🙂
That is a very simple yet elegant look. My best wardrobe friends are a sweater and coloured jeans because I don’t wear black. That jacket is a great length on you.
Wardrobe BFF? Great fitting jeans in a dark wash and black! Your outfit could have come out of my closet – our clothing likes are very similar! Agree with the other posters – your hair and complexion are gorgeous!
I love your hair like that, very pretty. Lars is the ultimate scene-stealer!
Great jacket Susan… Pack that one! 🙂 xv
I like this “simple” outfit a lot on you because it brings out you haircolour nicely. I really like your glasses and the soft coral lipstick.

You look great!!!!!!!!! Chic, poised, and skinny!! LOL Congrats!!
You have it nailed….that look just works, basic colours, highlighted with accessories perfect, so chic!! xx
Simplicity at its best! Lookin’ mighty fine in B&W!
My bff is bf jeans & blazers.
Jeans with a top and short boots. Love your glasses and your outfit is simple and effortless looking.
Excellent classics! I guess I could do with some better quality standards if it means I’d look like that. You look fabulous!
I usually like natural fabrics, but those jeans have been highly rated, (and they are 50%off) so I ordered a pair. Nordstrom’s has such a terrific return policy I can’t go wrong….Love your blog…A Fellow Francophile
I love that the kitteh made a guest appearance.
You look so sleek.
Oh, your hair! Obviously, I’m behind on th’ blog reading, but that color is magnificent. So is Lars 🙂
Hmmm, BFFs in closet. Striped tops, comfy skirts, super comfy flats, and flowy sweaters.
