You can also try the Chom Chom Roller to pick up fur off furniture. It works well. They sell it on Amazon and Chewy. Having that and the Furminator should help a lot with fur all over the house/furniture.Quote:

When my son gave me Noki he also sent a big metal tool that did a great job of taking off his fur. He also loved the feel of it and would sit patiently. Noki was husky/shepherd so was a giant shedding machine.
Finally ventured away from the local setting to see an outdoor play at the Shaw Festival in Niagara-on-the-Lake. It was warm , different venue but wonderful, the gardens throughout the downtown are beautiful as expected and I bought my first batch of fresh peaches and apricots at a farm stand. Perfect day!
Sounds like a wonderful time.Quote:

And I think they would all look good in a decade too although probably the pant length would be a problem.

It is best to watch the clothes as they move along the runway because they flow beautifully. But here is a slideshow if you don’t want to invest time watching a video.

Well, it was fun to look at the outfits. The fitted shoulder and loose pants are into fashion, it seems. I loved 4/69, thought 33/69 looked like a pot scrubber but 55/69 was a gorgeous gown.
Thanks for posting this, IL.

IRL, I have tried to go "high fashion" a couple of times with horrible results. One time, at the Manchester VT outlets I bought an expensive Ellen Tracy skirt and embroidered jacket that I loved, and never wore it once. I wound up donating it to Goodwill. I have very, very simple preferences for myself in clothing, but that doesn't keep me from thinking more elaborate outfits aren't completely gorgeous on someone else. Simply put, I don't like drawing attention to myself, so I stick to solids and neutrals. I truly should have been a nun.
I liked it a lot as a collection, but wouldn't likely wear anything so formal. Number 38 stands out as a favorite.
In contrast to Catherine, I liked the loose, cropped pants best.
