Happy Thankgiving Thursday!


Am having laptop issues so it's a very short post for now....

.....we awoke to thick frost on the cars today.....took some work to convince my son that it wasn't actually snow and definitely whatever it was, there wasn't enough to build a snowman before school! The week-end is supposed to bring snow so we'll see....

.....for many years I used to visit NYC every winter and a cold winter's day will still make me dream of the crowds on Fifth Avenue, huge sandwiches and the best cheesecake ever at Carnegie Deli, the ice skaters at Rockefeller Plaza, fabulous Christmas decorations, hot coffee and pretzel sellers on every corner....I do love NYC!

Happy Thanksgiving to all my US readers!





A little thanks of my own for the American Male (apologies for the spacing).... 

Happy Thursday!

The Costume Gala Benefit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art always seems to produce such fabulous dresses and this year was no exception.

In no particular order, the dresses above were my favourites...
some wore great dresses but their make-up looked all wrong - Kate Hudson, Eva Longoria Parker....
some let the dress wear them rather than the other way round, some looked a little lost and just wrong - Kristin Stewart, Carey Mulligan.....
and some wore great dresses but just to the wrong occasion - Bar Rafaeli and Gisele Bunchen....
a good stylist is clearly worth their weight in gold, it's so easy to get it wrong....

Thank goodness I don't have any of these fabulous occasions to go to!! If only....

Happy Wednesday!
