I think there is something really special about admiring older folks...I always love what you put together and it looks just right everytime. <br />On a different subject: I agree: there are a lot of cute acrylics I just think they smell funny (on me that is) and I am so sensitive to it that it could drive me bananas, hence no acrylic sweaters :)littlebyrdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00769222461364102029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069696493360863795.post-19121041522129691592009-05-08T15:47:00.000-04:002009-05-08T15:47:00.000-04:00I love Eileen Fisher.
