It happened one night
It was a magical night. The new year came and stayed bringing the future closer. All the beautiful sparkling dresses we wore that night became a memory that just happened… one night.
I picked this fashion story because of the title, but even more for the image above – probably my favourite of all the photos of Karen I’ve ever seen. Sparkling, infectiously happy and incredibly sexy.

New in: Missoni bag
It’s been a long time since I began looking for a perfect shoulder bag. In my dreams it was a small bag with a gold chain strap that could be worn with more or less everything in my wardrobe because I’d want to take it everywhere like my new pet (of course, technically, Oscar is the love of my life as far as pets are concerned, but in tiny teeny technical details Oscar isn’t a pet, he is… well, Oscar - not a pet, not yet a human, but not just a dog either).
Back to the bag story though… I found her on-line a few days before Christmas and fell in love. Santa heard my oh-so-overdue wish and, surpise-surprise, I found this little sweetheart under my Christmas tree. Loving this M Missoni bag so much (and am very lucky to have such a wonderful Santa’s representative as a husband!)
