A CHIC CHAT FROM THE CAFE

Happy Monday dear friends, how are you?

I am so sorry for not getting in touch earlier. It is no excuse dear friends, but my internet was down at home. So I was a bit lost per say for a week.  In so many ways the experience made me realize how connected we are through the internet. Do you remember the days before "you got mail" and/or Facebook?  Perhaps we should all disconnect and recharge for a few days every month.  

What do you think?  Please share your thoughts as I am very interested to hear from you!  Will some down time help to keep things fresh between us?


Now for the main attraction, it is obviously why some of you are here! 
Here is a peek at my ensemble du jour - live this Monday from the cafe du Starbucks.

A rainy Monday seriously calls for a little cafe time to get the week started off right, n'est ce pas?

For your viewing pleasure, something visual...



A perfect off-duty ensemble is a chic and simple sweater dress paired with classy and sexy high heels in a coordinating hue. 


A CHIC MINIMALIST IS WEARING:

BCBG Max Azria off-the shoulder dress, brown mary jane style pumps by Steve Madden.  This simple and chic ensemble is finished off with a few fine jewelry accessories:  Invicta silver watch, antique emerald and diamond ring, and pearl drop earrings.

Hope you will have a wonderful and restful evening my dear friends. 
I bid you farewell till Thursday evening. Enjoy your week!
