{My Jessica McClintock Hat Again}

On Pentecost Sunday, May 19, I did wear some red and with that came my Jessica McClintock Hat Again. You can find a link to the first post with my Jessica McClintock Hat below.
Jessica McClintock hat with rose too and also black roses on my silk blouse from Escada. Knitted cotton/wool skirt from Escada and purse and shoes; all from the outlet. Wolford pantyhose; also from the Wolford outlet.
  •  There also is a Wolford Outlet at Orlando Premium Outlets at Vineland Ave. 
  • Also at Sawgrass Mills Outlets - 1700 Sawgrass Mills Circle -  33323 Sunrise, FL 
Husband Pieter in his charcoal gray Zegna suit from the Ermenegildo Zegna Outlet Store in Orlando, Florida and Zegna shirt.
Silk tie is from Last Call by Neiman Marcus.
Last Call by Neiman Marcus is for SUPER deals. Check the above mentioned hyperlink!
Watch for their July 4th specials.
Next to my hand you see the clips where the outdoor shutters normally are fastened.
They're off here before the painting. 
Have a lovely summer week; or winter week for the southern hemisphere.

  2. You and hubby look wonderful and I love how you look in red, the outfit is lovely, my friend. I did buy myself a great raincoat from Burberry's and it was on sale too. I got 1 leather purse and one snake small purse from Dooney & Bourke, on sale as well. Did lots of damage with cloths and shoes on this trip, everything was on sale in the best stores like Nordstrom too, as in the outlets. Thanks for the links for the stores, next time I guess, but I could also buy on line later, right now I'm in no mood for more cloths, lol!
    Have a great week.

      Thanks for your compliments! We both got a Burberry trench coat as well. You had a ball going to Miami and Orlando; so glad you got some great sales. Ah, well you have to digest these new purchases and later you know where to go for some more deals.

  12. You two make a stunning couple! Love the new red Escada, Mariette. We have a NM Last Call here in town. It's a great place to shop. '-)

    1. Dearest Sarah,
      You are so lucky for having a NM Last Call in town! We always have to drive long distance. The nearest is east of Atlanta but that is out of the way for the rest of our shopping so we seldom go there. On our way to Miami, we check the one in Orlando and than in Miami. They also have the Escada outlet and the Zegna in Orlando.
      Hugs to you,
      Mariette

  21. Jullie zien er mooi uit hoor,en kostuum is een kostuum, tenminste niet zo heel variabel, maar jou ensemble vind ik super...staat je prachtig, en jeugdig met dat knal rood rokje en die hippe elegante schoenen...en Pieter zijn das, die vind ik ook heel mooi, mooi passend allemaal bij elkaar....zwart en rood..dat is eigenlijk wel fijn, dat je daar zulke mooie kleding in de outlet kan kopen.

  23. Ma chère Mariette, you look so beautifully "soignée" in your red, white and black outfit. I must say, though, that the hat makes the outfit, as a great hat always does. You will certainly agree. Also, I must say that Pieter looks so very dapper. What a handsome man he is!

    Thank you so much for linking to my little piece "My Life in Hats." I had almost forgotten I wrote it.

    I am still feeling the loss of my dear Mother two weeks ago, but I will soon be back in the Blogger groove again. Thank you so very much for your beautiful comments on my two recent posts paying tribute to a great lady. They meant so much to me.

    Je t'en remercie beaucoup.

    Gros bisous and big hugs, M-T

    1. Dearest Marie-Thérèse,
      From you a compliment does even mean a lot more! Thank you so much. For certain occasions, weather permitting, a hat does make an outfit. We both are aging but it feels good if you can once in a while present yourself like this. I was so glad I found that older post as well; just perfect for linking it in.
      Don't worry about blogging. Grieving needs its own time and just take some time for healing somewhat from this heartache. Life goes on but not in a rush. Loosing the one human being we once were so connected to, is not an easy thing.
      A big tight hug to you,
      Mariette

  24. Mariette, you look so elegant! I love the combination of hat with a rose and blouse with roses. And the red skirt and bag match well, too!
    Up to 85% discount sounds great :-) I gotta do some shopping during July 4th holiday!

      Back in The Netherlands I liked to wear a warm hat (muts) in winter but here there is hardly a need for it. Just occasionally such a hat will do.

    You look stunning in your outfit, hats suit you well.
    You are lucky not to change your size, my cupboard is full with clothes that I wish I could fit again but I refuse to take them out! maybe next month I'll start my diet again..

      Indeed it is a lucky thing for not changing size. If you struggle maintaining your size it is maybe a question of some discipline. Yeah, like the Kentucky Derby Hats here in the USA.
