i love the film the graduate. it's one of my all-time favorite movies. did you know that mrs. robinson (anne bancroft) was 36 years old while playing mrs. robinson? dustin hoffman was 30. and did you know that supposedly mike nichols wanted doris day for the role of mrs. robinson and robert redford to play benjamin braddock. that could have been interesting.
when i received this sweater for christmas, mrs. robinson was the first thing i thought of.
even though i'm not much like mrs. robinson (be quiet) i've always loved her in this film.

You look fabulous as always, Janet! I have the same cardigan and love it. It's so pretty on you! Btw, what are the shoes you're wearing?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link to Jack White's video...love his music. Did you happen to see him on American Pickers a little while back?
One more thing...blogger has changed the commenting format and yours is on full page without the option to subscribe. There is another option to have the comments embedded below the post, which also allows you to reply to each comment directly under it, and also allows readers to subscribe to the post. I changed my blog to that option earlier this week and really like it so far. :)
You look super cool there, I love that angular bob of yours.
ReplyDeleteI have a similar sweater and wear it a lot! You look great in yours!
ReplyDeleteWhy yes, you do remind me of Mrs. Robinson.
ReplyDeleteI like the look. Thanks for the song link. I think I like Jack White's music. I have heard of him but now I think I'm a fan as well.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Jack White! You are so funny!
ReplyDeleteYou look fabulous as always and I have to go check out this new song. I don't listen to enough music and it makes me crabby I think.
Have a great weekend!

Love it! And love the movie...need to watch that again.
ReplyDeletehappy Friday!

Just wanted to let you know that I left the info on how to change the blog commenting for you on my recent post. Let me know if you need any help. :)
ReplyDeletethanks ffm! i really appreciate it. also, i tried the suggestion for the facebook feature but for some reason when i check the box it just won't appear on my blog.
DeleteYou're welcome! :) About the facebook feature below the posts, I forgot to mention that once you save it in the blog posts section, you also have to hit save at the top of the Edit Layout page you are on. You can hit preview to see what it's going to look like beforehand, but must then click save in order for the changes to take place. Hopefully they will show up after that. :)
Deleteoh my this is really cool. i put my dilemma into blogger and they responded saying i need to reset my template. i tried but it still did not work. i just tried what you recommended but still nothing. it must be fate! thanks so much for helping me!
DeleteMy goodness you look amazing...
ReplyDeletewhat a fabulous combo.
Enjoy Jack on SNL :)
You always look hot! I'm going to have to watch The Graduate again to remind myself of Mrs Robinson's sweater.
ReplyDeleteJack White....mmmmmmmm...I'll never forgive myself for getting drunk and sleeping though his set at Glastonbury. xxx
oh vix no you didn't!!!
DeleteYou're spoiling us with lots of posts at the moment. Keep them coming!
ReplyDeleteI adore your cardi. You have a knack of putting the classics together and making them look so good.
Cougar!

Simple and chic, that's you. I will check out this Mr. White fellow...
ReplyDeleteGreat look on you Mrs. Robinson! And I LOVE your hair!!!
ReplyDeleteDanette
Love the look!
ReplyDeleteJanet, I love this look, this cardi looks perfect with your black pants and flat, classic and very much your style. I love the Graduate too.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Janet, You are a doll...no mrs. robinson.:):) I have got to lose some weight...so I can do some styling like you. Too cute. Smiles, Susie
ReplyDeletep.s. my shoes may go out of style but hopefully not my smile.
Janet, you just look great, so simple and chic! I am a year older than you, now I have no children at home I am trying for the simple (and stylish) life. I am decluttering. Did you ever regret getting rid of things when you moved to a smaller abode?
ReplyDeleteJanie
no janie, i have not regretted anything yet. i wish i would have gotten rid of more so that's what i'm still doing now.
DeleteHere's to you:-)
ReplyDeletexo Jane

I cannot believe there was only 6 years between them, and Doris Day and Robert Redford would have been the most sexless couple, ever! Love the pics.
ReplyDelete"I won't let love disrupt, corrupt, interrupt me..." Goose bumps.

i know! now get that song out of your head! although julie's son drew seems to have the answer below. how funny.
Deletelove the outfit and love the hair -- very chic. I was informed last night by an 8 year old that if you want to get a song out of your head you just sing the alphabet twice. Good to know. I can't usually stay up late enough to watch SNL, but i really want to see it tonight.
ReplyDeleteleave it to an 8 yr old to fix my problems. ask drew if he can fix the rest of my probems wouldya?
DeleteI love your haircut...its very chic!!!
ReplyDeleteand the outfit is looking haute!!!
