Hey if you've still got Campari in that oxymoron (big mini bar, get it?!) why not try it with prosecco, as Aperol is like Campari's cute granddaughter so I'm sure it will work. The two give a refreshingly bitter rather than sweet summer's drink and if you are a bitter fan, then it's definitely for you, Terri. Bit late in the season though, you'd better hurry!<br />I am going to watch your blog (I always do anyway!) to see if your daughter follows through on the canopy idea.<br />And yes, an elegrant throw on is something I have wanted for soooo long.<br />Hugs, x.thepoutingpensionerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484934089759704702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3385292529998118275.post-63393029952100461482017-09-20T11:01:56.159+01:002017-09-20T11:01:56.159+01:00Awww thanks, Amy.

I feel I am the edgy version of me when I read what you say about me! And in some weird way, I like being bossed by my new BF (bossiest friend). Consider your ideas already placed in the scramble that is the mentally (totes!) stored Pout Ideas Folder (PIF).<br />Dunno about sista, I think you've been CLONED from me (I'm the elder, ipso facto the Mother Vehicle). I don't think anyone other than you or me would be juxtaposing our outfits!<br />You have given me new aspiration - the cover of Saga Magazine. It's a mag for "over the hills" which I find I am excitedly drawn to these days and just hope my doctor is running late - he usually is :-) - so that I can go through the entire stash in his waiting room. Aim high, but aim realistically!<br />Hugs, x. <br />thepoutingpensionerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484934089759704702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3385292529998118275.post-14242159651947632992017-09-19T15:57:59.325+01:002017-09-19T15:57:59.325+01:00Well, you made me work this morning! I have never ...Well, you made me work this morning! I have never heard of Asperol and I have a pretty big mini bar. When you used it in the same sentence with Campari, I was a bit worried-I like bitter things but that was so beyond and it took me forever (and with a lot of simple syrup) to find things to do with that. Next time I get to my liquoir store giganticum I will look it up. I need to show Michelle that Pergola-they have a perfect place for something like that. <br /><br />I love your topper-it's nice to have a quick throw on elegant piece.Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05623141397526171772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3385292529998118275.post-4929748055362607192017-09-19T13:46:06.027+01:002017-09-19T13:46:06.027+01:00Such a gorgeous sweater!

And how come I have never heard of Aperol? Hmmmm, now I am intrigued and I must hunt down this libation,it sounds fabulous. That sweater is seriously posh cream on you, in fact I'd say it's the crem d'la crem (not sure if I spelled that right)! It is super posh with your black slacks and wedges and totally bad ass with the moto jacket and shades, you wild woman you! Now I think you should wear that gorgeous Zara creation with some distressed denim and booties, I think the juxtaposition of that elegant, pearl cream sweater with distressed denim would land you front and center on the first page of Vogue! Ok, maybe not Vogue but you would look ravishing! And there I go again telling you what to do. Go ahead, call me your bossy friend, I can handle it.<br />xo,<br />KellyannKellyann Rohrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11320531991490519576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3385292529998118275.post-77068330755378617912017-09-17T23:01:12.692+01:002017-09-17T23:01:12.692+01:00Hi Laurie, ad seratim,

Big thanks for fasttracking me!<br />Have to say that although you can meet Zara online, going into one of her shops is pure joy, so do persevere.<br />I've realised in recent weeks that spouses don't like me. I seem to add to their to-do lists as I chat to their other halves over coffee. Mr H won't like that a pergola is going on his!<br />Great collaboration, thanks Anna.

I tried to find Zara during the week but she's hiding from this Muttons locale. An Aperol spritz uk style is Prosecco and soda. I'm told that Italian style is no soda. <br />I hope you enjoyed it and thanks for collaborating in that lovely jumper. Now I need to get Mr Him building a pergola.
