Oscars 2011: The unusual suspects

As you know, I have more often than not strongly disagreed with Jessica Biel's red carpet choices. She always tends to wear boring, cheap-looking or quite simply horrible dresses to events. I can't come to terms with the fact that Justin Timberlake, one of the most stylish men in Hollywood, allows her to leave the house sometimes. But there is always hope, and stylists. I don't know if she has hired someone new, Zoe would do, but her SS11 Versace Atelier rocked my world. Even though we saw almost the entire collection at either on the red carpet or the stage I was happy to see my favourite pieces, such as this kind of patchwork sparkly number, in movement. Kate Beckinsale, on the other hand, is not someone I consider unstylish but just like Diane Kruger always wears Chanel, she always wears a dress white with a trail. So it was nice to see her in something more form-hugging and black. The choice, a Julien McDonald was a bit Amy Adams but I really loved the line of see-through gauze on the sleeves. Also, the hair was such a hit!

I'm off.

Oscars 2011: Less is more

I am rather disappointed with this year's Oscar red carpet looks. I was surprised not only not to find Angelina, Charlize Theron and Diane Kruger amongst the guests but also to see Natalie Portman and Gwyneth Paltrow in very bland dresses. Luckily, one can always count on Cate Blanchett to save the night. She was unarguably the best dressed at the Oscars in an incredible lilac and neon yellow beaded Haute Couture dress fresh of the Givenchy SS11 runway. She always makes such edgy choices that she wears with incredible taste. Number two on my ranking is very unexpected even for myself. Amy Adams chose the right shape of dress with a sexy back slit and covered neckline all covered in L'Wren Scott navy sequins. The choice of colour was perfect for her skin tone (for once) as were the jade, diamond and emerald jewels.

Third on the list is Mila Kunis, who had been building up to this moment. She saved this stunning lilac and nude lace Elie Saab number, which was made grand and occasion-appropriate by the glamourous hair-do and the smoky eyes. I loved everything about her and was happy to see her having such a great moment. And lastly, one of my favourite girls. Michelle Williams has been having some up and downs over the last few months but she made it clear that the only thing a girl needs is some Chanel Haute Couture. I loved how they turned the original dress into a body-con beaded masterpiece and how she relied on a good haircut and light make up.

On a different note, I need to point out Anne Hathaway's style throughout the show. For the red carpet she wore a red Valentino from 2002, when Garavani was still in charge, and even though she looked stunning there was something not quite right, which is why she wasn't on my best dressed list. However, there were two looks she wore during the Oscars that did out her here. The first was a Lanvin tuxedo, which she wore with a ponytail and Ryan Atwood sparkly pumps. And the second was an Amarni Privé number from the Haute Couture SS11 collection. Giulia and I were thrilled she wore it as we had predicted she'd wear it a few weeks before. Who was your favourite?

I'm off.

Best dressed of the weekend: BAFTAs

I was originally planning a bigger BAFTAs edition of the 'Best dressed of the week post' but most attendees didn't try very hard. Emma Watson, in Valentino, looked slightly off with a very old hair style that didn't do her any good. Emma Stone, in that Lanvin Karlie wore, was on the right track but there was a something missing. And everyone else, except Tilda Swinton in Haider Ackermann, looked either too plain, too slutty or too dressed. Apart from these three ladies below, that is.

Julianne Moore made up from her bad GG look by looking ravishing in a cobalt blue velvet Tom Ford (?). The wavy tied-back hair and the red lips and light makeup were as perfect as the subtle diamond jewellery. Just wait for her Oscars look.

Hailee Steinfeld has been on endless blogs over the last few weeks. Her previous Miu Miu and Prada looks have proved that she knows how to be fashion-forward while staying age-appropriate. Her Miu Miu choice for the BAFTAs was a great evening choice both as a dress and as jewellery, as it needed none. I'd love Hailee to be in a film with Elle Fanning. Think of those press tours...

I was completely oblivious of the fact that Jessica Alba was attending this year's ceremony. She donned one of my favourite SS11 Versace Atelier gowns (from that post where I said how much I'd love Christina Hendricks to wear it that I then had to take down because the pictures had been leaked) and, being completely objective, she outshone all the Brits. Her choice of hair and jewellery perfectly complemented the gown and, well, it's Jessica Alba, she'd look good in a bin bag.

I'm off.

Golden Globes 2011 Apendix

I promised I'd be back with more. This second post has a bit of really good fashion and another bit of quite horrific catastrophes. But let's start with the good. Annette Bening has been the first celebrity (to my knowledge) to wear Tom Ford to an event. I don't understand why no one is talking about this and why it was so hard to find a good picture of a beautiful and elegant woman only because she's older. She absolutely rocked the velvet-dotted sheer dress and I loved the crazy messy hair and the geek-chic glasses. I was also glad she wore Tom because that meant Julianne (in a Lanvin I'm not too keen on) wouldn't, which can only mean she is wearing Tom to the Oscar's. Hurrah! Angelina knows green is her ally. It really compliments her hair and it brings out her eyes. Her Atelier Versace was a stunning piece of understated glamour, which, sadly, wasn't matched by the hair. She was going for a natural effortless kind of look and I would have almost bought it if I hadn't seen her putting lip gloss on all through the show. And lastly, a woman who I should have put as number one because not only she is incredibly attractive but she also makes a bold choice after the other. Tilda Swinton slipped into one of Jil Sander's SS11 quasi-Couture numbers and she literally got me off my seat.

Before I start on the bad I want you to notice how I have included among them a face whose style I usually praise. I have because, sadly, it's where she belongs this time but also to prove that I am an objective person. Michelle Williams chose Valentino (yet again) but she was wrong —it's not a safe choice ever since Garavani stopped signing sketches. The fabric of her Pre-Fall 2011 dress would make beautiful pillows for your back yard's furniture but as a dress it makes Spring feel like in the middle of December. Christina Aguilera in Zuhair Murad. She's halfway in (or out) of it and the nude lining did not help. She should know a woman must cover her shoulders when she's got more than a fold between her arm and her, ahem, bust. I will use this over and over again (because I think it's witty). It was grotesque. And then we have JLo from the seas channeling some Ariel in another Zuhair Murad (go figure). Her invite said fancy dress so she called Mariah Carey for advice and opted for a glittery take on a jellyfish costume accompanied by some very original eye make up, which I can only describe as silver-incrusted sleep.

I'm off.

Golden Globes 2011: The year of minimalism

After going to bed at 4am and sleeping scarcely four hours to wake up early and edit pictures I finally give you the Golden Globes 2011 post! I keenly watched the red carpet and the entire show this year not to miss out on any outfits. We know that the Globes are just the warm-up to the Oscars in terms of fashion. Everyone tries to look as effortlessly glamourous as possible, which this year translated on minimalism as the main trend on the red carpet.
My three clear winners of the night were Anne Hathaway, Emma Stone and January Jones. I was thrilled that Rachel Zoe chose the beautifully sequined Armani Privé gown I first fell in love when Karlie Kloss wore it on the catwalk. It was simple yet tremendously sophisticated and very Anne -simply bananas. Emma Stone chose a salmon Calvin Klein Collection that needed no more than light make up, simple hair and a nice clutch. Check, check and check. And January, oh January. I literally gasped for air when I first saw her on the red carpet. Even though she already wore a cocktail version of this dress at Versace's SS11 show I loved the fact that she was channeling Mad Men this time with the hair and the modern take on Hollywood's golden era.

I really liked Claire Dane's pink Calvin Klein Collection. Especially the fold detail on the top. She looked lovely but there was a kind of spark missing. She was still one of the best dressed of the night. Now, Natalie Portman is a tough call. I was horrified when I saw her first but then I sat back and looked more carefully. If anyone could make her Viktor & Rolf dress look refined that's her. I liked that it was quite dramatic, apt for the role she was nominated for, and that it celebrated the woman she's become and the things she's achieved. I also thought the choice of wearing a necklace was a great way to draw a bit of attention away from the baby bump to the neck and balance the look up. And lastly (for now), Leighton Meester in Burberry Prorsum. She always looks so incredibly cool and feminine in anything. I love how she never lets dresses wear her and I particularly liked this one below because it was unexpected and very event-appropriate.

Who did you love most?
I will be back later today with some more good styling choices and my favourite, the worst dressed list! Stay tuned.
I'm off.

Emmys 2010 revisited: Mad Men wins (in style)

I simply couldn't help myself. Not only Mad Men rocks my world with their costume design but their starts weaken my knees when they slip into designerwear for the red carpet. This picture of January Jones (in Atelier Versace), Elisabeth Moss (in Donna Karan) and Christina Hendricks (in Zac Posen) literally gives me butterflies. To me, it's the picture equivalent of being in love wearing custom-made Tom Ford, Louboutin lounge shoes and drinking a £1000 bourbon while Ella Fitzgerald sings for me in my Chelsea townhouse. Picture that if you can.

I'm off.

Emmys 2010: Mad Women

I watched the Emmys for the first time last night. I had never payed much attention to them because the attendees and red carpet were never out of the ordinary like, say, the Globes or the Oscars. Until Mad Men and True Blood started getting nominated, that is. The fact that such good quality and edgy shows spread through the different categories means a lot of their starts will step on the red carpet doing their best not to go unnoticed. The Academy wasn't especially generous to either Mad Men or True Blood last night but their actors completely outshone the Emmy winners. January Jones, in Versace Atelier, was my favourite. She looked like the bionic queen of mermaids wrapped in the Italian metallic scales. I thought it was a very clever choice. The front showed a bit of legs but there was a train and the top was classic in lines but sexy and unexpected in construction.

Many of the other attending ladies looked remarkably good for this kind of event. Christina Hendricks (the other Mad Woman) rocked her custom made Zac Posen. The dress would've looked quite bland had it not been for the toddlers that fought inside it (as someone geniusly referred to the twins on twitter, email me for credit). And the great hairdo. Heidi Klum was one of the very few women who went for s short dress. The combination of her super short, super tight Marchesa and her statement necklace was spot-on sexy. Rose Byrne was unknown to me until last night when I had to know who was the lady in the amazing Gucci dress. It was both simple and intricate enough to look elegant and still make a statement. White (Kate Beckinsale would've been so proud) was also the colour of Kim Kardashian's Marchesa dress. I don't usually pick her out for her style but she did look like a modern day Cleopatra with the Egyptian-inspired neckline and the tied-back hair.

At first I loved Anna Paquin in McQueen. Don't get me wrong, I adore the dress, but it feels like the bottom of the skirt didn't really suit the wearer. It was a winner choice but only from the waist up. And last, Claire Danes in Armani Privé (surprise surprise). I thought she looked very chic, very old Hollywood glamour and was definitely one of the best dressed but then again it wasn't anything I hadn't seen on Anne Hathaway before.
Who did you love the most?
I'm off.

PS. Lea Michelle - biggest disappointment of the night in her matrony Oscar de la Renta.

CFDA 2010 awards

I feel like I haven't posted in years and today I am so inspired I could make about 12 posts. Alas, I am only human so I'll stick to a chronological order to relevance so neither of us go mental. Let's start with the CFDA awards from Monday night. This year I was quite excited for one of my favourite new designers, Joseph Altuzarra, to win the Swarovski Womenswear Designer of the Year award. But, apparently, it had to go to the more unoriginal Jason Wu. I was also disappointed by Marc Jacobs' win as I feel slightly iffy about him, both as a person and as a designer. However, the fact that Richard Chai and Alexander Wang won the Swarovski Menswear and Accessories awards, respectively, made me very happy.

Fashion wise it wasn't a super exciting edition. I was happy to see the Olsens on their first official appearance at the awards as CFDA members but, even though they looked great, I always expect them to outshine everyone else. Something that didn't happen this year. My list of best dressed at this year's event even surprised me. My favourite above all was Vogue's Tonne Goodman, who won the Eleanor Lambert Award, in a Michael Kors outfit that pretty much epitomised classic East-coast style. Jessica Biel showed she can actually get it right every so often. She looked absolutely stunning a 30's glamour version of Diane Von Furstemberg's classic wrap dress. I can't explain why I like it so much but I look at it and it just feels right. Iris Apfel totally made my day by wearing one of Nicolas Ghesquière's Balenciaga jackets from SS09. I simply love the fact that a lady of her age can be so fashion-forward and still look appropriate. I really wish she was my grandma.

What I always love about both the Met Ball and the CFDA awards is the fact that designers attend with their muses dresses in their designs. I thought Hayden Christensen in Richard Chai was absolutely genius, they both look so not-bothered. Pretty relaxed as well looked Altuzarra and Vanessa Traina, in a custom-made dress from the SS10 collection turned black for the occasion. Zac Posen looked better than his companion once again. He is a bit of a roller coaster when it comes to collections but he can dress, there is no doubt about that. And then we have Dakota Fanning, who gave Marchesa such a spin it didn't even look it had come from the hands of Georgina Chapman.
I'm off.

Oscars 2010

It is the first time I have stayed up to watch the Oscars and I am elated. I feel part of a very cool club. But it does comes as a shock that I am making myself blog at half two in the morning. I have to admit I was part of the group of people who were not expecting much from this year's red carpet. Thankfully, my expectations were completely overwhelmed from the very moment I saw Diane Kruger. My favourite numbers, though, were Zoe Saldana's dream of a Givenchy, Sarah Jessica Parker's Chanel (that Karl made only for her), and the first Dries Van Noten (and FW10!) on the carpet worn by Maggie Gyllenhaal. But my favourite part of the gala was dapper Robert Downey Jr. in the most amazing combo to ever walk the runway —by Lanvin, of course.

Check out our Oscars live coverage on twitter. Now I will resume my watching of the show and the short night sleep that will follow.

I'm off.

sunshine

There is nothing like a little dose of Olsen-ness on a grey London morning during fashion week. I had been waiting for this moment since Coco's Tea Party predicted (quite accurately) that Ashley and Mary-Kate would be attending this year's Elle Style awards. MK looked pretty awesome and rock'n'roll in her black Lanvin but it was Ashley (surprise, surprise) who truly left me perplexed. The vintage Lacroix and the Fendi shoes made such a dazzling combination. Just leave Justin and marry me, please? Please?

the copper globes

It has been a while since any award gala succeeded in getting to a fashionista's heart. And this year Golden Globes has been no different. However, I have come to the conclusion that if you will fail to even be vaguely fashion-forward you might as well stick to the classics.

Drew Barrymore has very much blossomed into a very interesting fashion personality. This Versace is not only on trend for next season but the bulgy detailing on the shoulder and hip add that edge she always needs. Emily Blunt, however, went for something a bit more restrained yet very gripping because of the way the fabric has been wrapped around. Plus, that haircut is a keeper.

Maggie Gyllenhall might or might not be aware that she doesn't have the most gifted face in Hollywood but she certainly knows how to compensate. Again, the subdued detailing makes her Roland Mouret captivating. Sandra Bullock gave me a big surprise. I loved how Coco's Tea Party chose her dress as the most unexpected colour, it is all about the hue.

Black doesn't really ever go wrong. I love how January Jones was one of the few to choose a high neckline. It made her Lanvin kind of intriguing and her casual hair-do added to that. Julia Roberts looked quite alluring in a very straightforward version of the LBD and the fact that she went into the YSL archive to get it really gives her bonus point in my book.

I was sad to hear from my flatmate that Julianne Moore was in the worst dressed list. My favourite moment of the night was when Tom Ford was asked if he approved of her dress and he almost spit out a "duh", noting that he is very good friends with Nicolas Ghesquière. And, of course, Ashley (the future Mrs. soVIPzone) in a flirtatious electric blue Erdem that takes my breath way. She also wore the Manolos from Sex and The City, which only gives me more ideas of how to propose.

a black and RED affair

Fellow fashionistas, happy post-Oscars day! Someone should turn this day into a holiday devoted to fashion lovers to have the time to stop, stare and comment 'till we drop. I am posting early to share with you my favourites from last night.

I have to say I can't decide whether I am surprised or not, I assume the writers guild strike affected even the preparation of the real protagonists of the night —the gowns. Black and red were the clear favourites of the night in an event characterized by sobriety and elegance rather than the striking glamour expected from the awards gala of the year. 

I will to try to be kind and skip my endless commentaries, briefly talking about every dress but only treating myself with a little more extension on the big catastrophes of the night.

The winners

I would like to start with the woman I thought best dressed. The fact that I've chosen her as the style winner will prove to those who know me that I am, among other things, quite objective. It should come as not surprise, though, that wearing a Chanel Haute Couture gown specifically made for you plus jewels by Chopard and Jimmy Choo's rocket you to the TOP. Therefore, I crown Penélope Cruz the most beautifully dressed lady of the night. The only flaw? The blah hairdo; that dress was screaming for an up do.

Moving to some of my dear ladies, I was stunned and amazed and moved by Cate Blanchett's  —& Co.— semi-casual Dries Van Noten looked like a piece sent down from the Olympus to be worn with those amazing Lorraine Schwartz jewels.

Looks like the pregnant ladies of the moment had a special good taste for the night, for Jessica Alba's Marchesa with Jimmy Choo clutch and shoes were a dream and I am specially thankful to her for injecting the red carpe with a little colour.

I wonder what will be said about Cameron Díaz this time, last year's white Valentino made different opinions arise. To me, she looked stunning in that pale pink Dior.

To finish the list of my favourites, a girl who screwed it up big time last year in a white Valentino (big black bow included)—Anne Hathaway blew me away with the glamour that red Marchesa conferred her.

The catastrophes

I am glad the number of catastrophes decreased this year, although it was not hard to achieve considering the almost unexisting fashion risks that were taken this time. However, XXL snowflake Jennifer Hudson managed to look like a huge mess for the third year in a row in a white Roberto Cavalli with some snake detailing that was probably awful enough even before she stretched it in.

My second and last miss of the gala was Heidi Klum. Some will feel the strong urge to shake and punch me when they read this, but there was something about that red John Galliano with Jimmy Choo's that, although beautiful, made Heidi look like a highly-paid burlesque hooker.

the NIGHT of your life

The CFDA and Vogue's Fashion Fund gala gathered the most exclusive fahionistas in their most exquisite ensembles and fashion statements. Going through all the photos takes you on the oddest yet most enjoyable trance you've ever been in.

As usual, I do not consider a fashion event truly exclusive unless Armani or HER are there. So this time it was the real deal. Anna Wintour attended the gala in my favourite Chanel Haute Couture dress of the season; isn't she fabulous? Bee Shaffer seems to be following mummy's steps in terms of clothing, wearing a beautiful Dolce & Gabbana with the appropiate amount of leopard prints. Making November's cover of Vogue seems to have had quite an effect on Jennifer Connelly, who presented the gala. She wore an aboultely outstanding Oscar de la Renta dress, but I didn't like the shoes she wore with it. This lady has been both surprising and amazing me lately; Kate Bosworth is constantly getting it right and looking stunning and she did it again as she co-hosted the show in a wine-colored short dress by Proenza Shouler. Those guys are unbelievably talented!



Next one to leave me speechless was Miss I-look-fantastic-no-matter-what Kate Moss in one of "her own" creations for my beloved British brand Top Shop. I don't reckon much people can pull of such a look including full-lenght dress and oversized blazer; but she simply does. You would never think Natalia Vodianova a mum looking at her with that breath-taking body. However, her choice for the night —a Valentino Haute Couture— was unfortunate. One of my favourite pictures from the night is the one pratraying fashion-legends Ralph Lauren (and wife Ricky), Donna Karan, Diane Von Furstemberg and Valentino. How cool would it be to be right there in the middle?! They all look fantabulous, but let me focus on the Laurens. He looks absolute dandy, but she looks like she ran away from a Middle Age market! Design-genious Marc Freaking Jacobs posed with boyfriend Jason Preston as he resumed his very own gay parade that's been going on for months, now. She was one of the highlights of the night. Dita Von Teese showed up in the most superb Marchesa dress and left me stoned.



British icons Agyness Deyn and Henry Holland took advantage of their contract and attended the gala in quite "interesting" outfits by Burberry Prorsum. Another of the guests was Lapo Elkann, in one of his signature Italian vintage ensembles. Vera Wang went for a more casual and very ethnic outfit by herself. The Olsens made their way into the event holding from the arms of Giambattista Valli (who dressed Mary-Kate) and Francisco Costa (Calvin Klein creative director who dressed Ashley). Elle McPherson is looking better and better with age and even more so when she's wearing Valentino. The Karan women are gorgeous by nature, my only choice is becoming a mormon as I cannot decide whether to marry one or the other. Bette Middler posed with the designer resposible for her look, Michael Kors. Carolina Herrera found talent and the source to eternal youth at a time and she attended the found gala with hubby Reinaldo looking magnificent!

It was also very nice to see some less celebrated people in pretty well-chosen clothing. This is the case of Tatiana Santo Domingo (above top) in Missoni, Aerin Lauder Zinterhofer (above) in Oscar de la Renta, Helen Lee Schiffer in Proenza Schouler and Alexis Bryan in Alberta Ferretti.

it's my PARTY and i wear what i want to

Get ready for a hardcore fashion event...


Just a week ago, everyone in the fashion business gathered for THE awards of the year. The CFDA Awards, the fashion Oscars.
This year the Council of Fashion Designers of America celabrated its 25th anniversary as they also celebrated a whole life of achievements for Ralph Lauren with the American Fashion Legend award.



If that wasn't enough, he also HAD to be the winner for Menswear Designer of the Year. It was about time he received a glamourous sample of affection from his fellow designers and fashion buddies.
Mr. Genious Lauren was not, however, the only name that was applauded that same night. A man who recently dazzled us with his resort collection won the award for Womenswear Designer of the Year. But Oscar de la Renta was not the only winner this time, oh no, Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough of Proenza Schouler forced the jury into having to end up in a tie. But how bad can that be, having two winners?
Then was Derek Lam who came on stage to pick up his Accesory Designer of the Year award. After whom Monsieur Cardin, Pierre Cardin, reached out for his International award.
Photography god Patrick Demarchelier got this year's Eleanor Lambert award.


Now I may proceed to report the HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE list of masters of fashion dressed on either their own designs or by their favourite designers and that night's party pals.


Just to make you aware of the importance this event has, notice the presence of HER. My whole body writhes of excitement when I look at her. ANNA WINTOUR, US Vogue's Editor-in-Chief, was indeed there. And not only that, but she was wearing an Oscar de la Renta gown from his latest cruise collection which was premiered that same morning. This is, therefore, another way of her showing off her extreme power in this, our world.
She was followed —and not only metaphorically—by this year's winner of the winners Ralph Lauren accompanied by TV's queen Oprah Winfrey. Then some other magnificent figures of fashion made their way along the red carpet. Diane Von Furstemberg had to come since she is president of the CFDA.




Debra Messing kept Michael Kors company for the night as he provided her with a superb cyan blue dress. German top model and Bravo's Project Runway host and producer Heidi Klum also chose Kors to dress her up for the party, Calvin Klein's designer Italo Zuccelli showed up with Alicia Keys wearing one of his designs. Oscar de la Renta attended the party with Fliza Red Bolen who wore one of de la Renta's masterpieces from his cruise collection. Then we could see shoe king Christian Lobutin walking the red velvet and pucking Mary Kate Olsen on the face as she wore an Elizabeth Sames gown and her Miu Miu bag (that she's been using the followong days). After that half of the Olsens, the other half came in looking extremely beautiful in a full-length dark blazer and gorgeous make-up and hair. Marc Jacobs caught up the attention from all the flashes looking pretty elegant; after him it was Calvin Klein himself who charmed the cameras. Photographer Patrick Demerchelier attended the award-giving with his wife Mila. Official most beautiful woman in the universe Riyo Mori shone with a Vivienne Tam dress, who went with Miss Universe to the event. Anna Wintour's daughter was also one of the VIP's of the night and was in for the show with a creation form Giambattista Valli.

























Model Lily Cole chose Valentino and went short, as Kate Bosworth did with a design from one of the night's winners Proenza Schouler. Also awarded Pierre Cardin stepped on the scarlet carpet and fashion-disaster-of-the-night Chloë Sevigny was next showing off her personal awful taste with a gorgeous —though— Holly Dunlap gown who posed on her side. Donna and Gaby demonstrated beauty runs in the veins of the Karan females. Zac Posen was responsible for Karen Elson's look and for her company. Vera Wang and the couple made up by Lance Lapere and dark-skinned beauty Liya Kebede in a Michael Kors' followed. Nadja Swarovski posed with the Olsens as Dee Odeppo did with west-coast genious designer Tommy Hilfiger.















































********************************************************************

Like any other stylish party packed with rich people, it had obviously have to lead to a later dinner. And everyone had to obviously change their outfits for they had been on for sooo long!
Ashley Olsen preferred a The Row styling to have some food eaten and her double went for a Holly Harp. Kings of the night Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough, the Demarcheliers, Derek Lamb, Diane Von Fustemberg and Francisco Costa joined everyone for dinner too.

























Hope you enjoyed it. Pray for me to be there next year.
I'm off.
