I bought this simple black Eileen Fisher dress a few years ago...
it has become a real workhorse in my wardrobe.
I have worn it with a white long sleeved top underneath
tights and black Chelsea Boots.
Last night I wore it as it is and added a soft wool Petrusse scarf as a shawl.
This is a surprisingly warm scarf despite it being rather sheer.
I received this in one of the My French Country Boxes from France.
It has had a few years of use and still looks new.
I thought about wearing my Ferragamo shoes
but in the end I decided I should test drive the new Coach loafers.
I wore sheer black hose for the first time in ages...
fortunately I have a few new packages in my drawer.
I added the vintage rhinestone bracelet and wore my simple princess cut diamond necklace and studs.
It felt strange not wearing my pearls
I thought that I should keep it simple when adding the BLING.
We had a delicious dinner at Zambri's our favourite Italian restaurant.
I forgot to capture our appetizers, main course but here is dessert!
Passionfruit Panna Cotta
so delicious!
We had a lovely evening out and it was such a treat.
On Friday evening we hosted a small dinner party here in The Humble Bungalow.
The table is set and ready for the guests.
Appetizers ~ cheese plate with Olives, pickles, antipasto and candied salmon with assorted crackers in the living room in front of the fireplace.
The main course ~ Beef Daube, mashed potatoes and green beans.
Dessert ~ large brownies topped with fresh raspberries.
I wanted to host a casual dinner before everyone got busy with the seasonal events.
Have you noticed that people are out in droves buying Christmas presents?
I too am trying to get my shopping done early.
I need time to bake some cookies and the annual Christmas Tourtieres.
Hope that you are all staying healthy...
I have heard that the viruses are making the rounds.
One of my friends has been hospitalized and she's been in for a week and only now starting to feel better.
Thank you for stopping by The Humble Bungalow Blog.
