It was Zosia from Polonica: Home Again, who did comment on my March 13, 2013 blog post: {My Green Sewing Creation}, saying that I had Killer Legs... Just scroll down by clicking on this hyperlink and you find her comment at the bottom, as the last one. Well, Zosia sure did encourage me to take my Escada Moc Croc Hot Pants with me to Curaçao and daring to pose in them!
Posing in Paradise at the Santa Barbara Beach & Golf Resort Curaçao with the Dutch Caribbean Sea behind me, only 35 miles north of Venezuela...
Two days before departure. We enjoyed our 10 days of great relaxing.
Our free trip on American Airlines miles... one of the perks of having been consultants!
Zosia from Polonica: Home Again, did write on March 14: What a nice spring outfit. You look lovely in green and, may I say, you have killer legs and look fantastic in shorter skirts.
Thanks for the compliment Zosia! You did encourage me to wear my Escada Moc Croc Hot Pants!
The cotton t-shirt is also from Escada.
We had a very happy time together as a family in this tropical paradise!
Marc Cain sandals.
Holding on to this Caribbean dream...
This was a day before husband Pieter's birthday. The reason of our get-together as a family.
Pieter gifted his adopted daughter Liz and her husband Hans with a ticket and a stay at this resort.
This Escada set also comes with a jeans jacket in moc croc...
Here we are at the other side of the hotel...
Turning around for you.
Natural hair; never ever had any dye... Not bad for 62+ I guess.
How I miss those palm trees...
That jacket is really not needed out there!
Those legs did lots of walking around the resort... very healthy lifestyle we followed.
Yes, we ate a lot too! Step-daughter Liz could not believe how much I actually ate...
Not that we ought to turn away from that lifestyle, but at home it is different...
You need to prepare all the healthy food yourself!
At least climbing stairs we also do a lot here at home!
This is inside the hotel, going down to the MIDI or to the Bella Italia restaurants...
Yes, seriously...
In the lobby there was JUN'S SUSHI BAR where we also ate one night.
Already miss the sea wind blowing through my hair...
It is VERY hard to turn your back to PARADISE...
Okay, here is the real runway model from Escada...
Have any of you worn, or are wearing hot pants?

Alles Liebe

"Killer legs"?
ReplyDeleteUnderstatement of the century!
I'm new here - are you a dancer?
How do you get such amazing legs :D ?
Mariette,sei sempre carina e solare!Bacioni,Rosetta
ReplyDeleteI had hotpants when I was 20 or something, I don't think I should wear them now. But you look ageless and can get on the catwalk with your outfit.
ReplyDeleteKiller legs! That's quite accurate description of your long beautiful legs :-) And not just legs, seriously, how you keep so fit! I don't wear short pants or skirts because my O-shaped legs don't look good. I try to disguise them with long pants and skirts :-) And I don't like my big, long buttock. I am so jealous with yours!!
ReplyDeleteThe resort looks very nice. I love the view of beautiful garden and sea.
Mariette, Hot Pants trug ich mal in grauer Vorzeit. Jetzt schon lange nicht mehr.
ReplyDeleteDu kannst sie gut tragen und ich finde, dass du eine tolel Figur und schöne
Beine hast. Man sieht dir deine 62 nicht an! Ich meine es ehrlich.
Einen schönen Sonntag wünscht dir
Irmi
You make me feel very jealous! I have problem wearing anything short (during summer of course :D ) because I have so much cellulite it's scary. :(
ReplyDeleteMaybe you have some advice for reducing it (except that one about drinking a lot of water 'cause it doesn't help). :)
I googled Curaçao, very beautiful place and interesting history.
And one more thing, you definetly have better body shape than the model wearing Escada. I think we'd all agree here. :)
Dearest Mariette,
ReplyDeleteIt sure is amazing how well you can keep in shape; you eat a lot, wow. I am so happy to see you enjoyed the paradise and even Sushi, my friend.
Sending you lots of love and hugs from Japan, xoxo Miyako*
You have a fantastic figure Mariette and you do have killer legs! Pieter is a lucky man to have such a beautiful wife, not only on the outside but on the inside too. I wore cut off's last summer but I've been careless lately and can't squeeze into them so I need to get back in bathing suit shape:)
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day Mariette!!!
Dearest Mariette,
ReplyDeleteHow terrific that you look both cool and elegant in your hot pants!
Happy Mothers Day............*s*
Dearest Mariette.
ReplyDeleteyou look stunning ! I would dare to wear those short shorts too if I were as slim as you are.
Have a wonderful day.
Liebe Mariette,
ReplyDeleteso ein süßes Kompliment und du hast es wirklich zu Recht bekommen. Wenn das keine Killer legs sind. Du siehst fantastisch aus, so eine Figur hatte ich nicht mal als junges Mädchen. Ich wünsche dir auch einen schönen Muttertag.
Liebe Grüße,
Johanna
What incredibly beautiful clothes and you really wear them out. Imagine having such a fine figure.
ReplyDeleteHugs
Not everyone could pull that outfit off but you do it well. Have a great day! Tammy
ReplyDeleteWow Mariette, hai davvero delle belle gambe...anche se io sono magra e un pò più giovane di te non potrei mai permettermi un paio di shorts così corti! Complimenti davvero...anche per la bella vacanza ovviamente!
ReplyDeleteUn pò in ritardo ma "buona festa della mamma anche a te"
Un abbraccio
Anna
