All the holiday parties. All the excuses to pull out the floor-length gowns that have been sitting in your closet.
This one is vintage — sixties maybe? I wore it to the opera last year. And I’m still so, so glad I didn’t have this bad boy hemmed. (That would have been a travesty.) A floor-length gown is a thing of beauty.
Speaking of things of beauty — say hello to my little friend. He’s from Barefoot Contessa in Vancouver.
And he’s such a bold little guy I feel like he deserves a name. Thoughts?
P.S. On Facebook, The Anthology is wonderful any time of year.

You are breathtaking.
Love the ring. I’d help you name the lil guy but i’m pretty bad at naming things. When I was a kid I named my rabbit “bunny” and my budgie “budgie”. I’m pretty sure if I ever have a daughter i’ll name her “girl”.
I’m surprised I passed Kindergarten. ;)

Love the ring! I was just at Barefoot Contessa this weekend and looking at similar rings.
Beautiful!
I wish we had Barefoot Contessa here, I keep seeing wonderful things online from it!
I think you should name him Fred! Was Fred expensive? haha.
Hope you had a lovely weekend :)

Love the floor-length gown, so pretty! I’m workin on a floor-length black dress too, they feel a bit like dress-up in the most glamourous way!
