Fundraiser for Charity



Last weekend, Russell and I went to a charity dinner with the neighbors. We went last year and enjoyed the opportunity to go out for a nice evening. Plus, it gives us an opportunity to get dressed to the nines.


Here are our neighbors, Juliette and Neil, looking mighty fine!

And another fine looking couple here.

I went to one of my favorite shops, Patrizia Pepe for my dress. The shop assistants told me, "Yes, Madam. It's a dress." After trying it on, I knew I'd need to wear it with trousers. When you're closer to 50 than to 20, it's not the time to be wearing super short mini-skirts. Yes, I lack adventure when it comes to fashion.

I love your dress, you look younger.
I'm closer to 50 and I wear the mini-skirt.

I still have most of the henna tattoo. They usually last about 2 weeks.
