The Pics



The event went well. Enjoyed by the whole table I had arranged to go to the event. We shut the place down, and the organizers/hosts came to party with our table after things were done.

Many folks there had not met Smitten before. I am well known in all of those circles (business, film, music, new media, and political). I was pleased with the accolades directed toward her.

Smitten enjoyed herself as did I. I hope we will continue to go out like this.

I like the length of the jacket.

Did you two co-ordinate the outfits, or was it purely coincidence that you both wore creme eggs on your faces?

yeharr

Pirate: thank-you

it's funny, but without any co-ordination we have been wearing the same colour combos for the last couple of weeks each time we see each other. including that night.

Nobody said...

Oh my god... you guys look so, so cute!!!

Even though we have seen pics torso shots of you... it's fun to get a better glimpse of you and smitten!!

Glad you had fun...

Ok, I must stop lurking and make a comment!

You two look great, and look great together! I really do like your suit. I'd like to buy a new suit for my husband...but he's only worn the one he has twice in two years.

Big Pissy said...

Yeah, the matching colors got me too...not that they're bad....I was just wondering if it was intentional.

Y'all both look great! :)

eve:

i am glad you liked the pictures. i had debated for some time whether to put up any pics like this, but figured what the hell.

Heidi:

welcome Heidi, fellow Canadian. thank-you for your comments. i have another one that was tailored for me, only 60 lbs ago... i have yet to have it re-done.

southern peach:

thank-you. ood to see you

terry:

we can't figure out why we seem to be doing the matching thing so much. we have attributed it to similar brain patterns or something...

Sicilian:

thank-you. Smitten is not as tall as she may appear - she was wearing fairly high heels. she's a little over 5' 5".

and yeah - she's really pretty [sigh]

Big Pissy:

there's a joke about how if two women wear the same outfit to a party it ruins their night, and one of them has to leave. if two guys wear the same outfit they become life-long buds and wander around the party getting hammered together and pointing each other's clothes out to everyone else at the party saying "SEE!!!"

Smitten tends towards the guy part of the above description. I have gone to change my clothes a few of the times when we have matched colours and/or fabrics, but she has stopped me.

being "same-sies" would have been anethema to Mrs_C. it's different...

cadbury_vw said...

we took the shots ourselves on timer, so we are not posed or arranged all that well

both of us look a little "pottier" than we are in real life, though we've both gained a few pounds over the winter

SignGurl said...

You both look hot!!!!

t_cole said...

oh my.
you look wonderful.
both of you.
so glad you had a fabu evening.
for that, i am jealous.
right now, i'd give my left arm for just an evening of peace and quiet and a good book...
