I just bought some black loafers but I'm not sure how I would wear socks with them, I usually go without in that kind of shoe but sometimes you want socks. Your centerpiece is so pretty, I never think to do things like that. Cannot put presents under the tree because 1) Santa doesn't come early and 2) the dog likes to eat even the non-Santa gifts! Maybe we are making progress this year since she hasn't eaten any ornaments off the bottom of the tree yet. I love Christmas! :-) Have fun at your office party! catehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17121234545386465542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8140814948262466589.post-63272597979947617432012-12-18T09:24:30.027-04:002012-12-18T09:24:30.027-04:00You look taller in this outfit, especially with yo...You look taller in this outfit, especially with your boots.

A wardrobe that's like a well stocked pantry: beloved basics so you can always cook up something yummy without stress, favourite combinations of those can't miss flavours that really work, just a few make-the-most-of-it seasonal favourites and a final dash of dessert, frosting etc. Same as going to supermarket with a list and not existing on PopTarts, Twinkies etc. (which would only lead to an exhausted, frustrated slump.)<br />Anyway, I clearly need coffee and cereal. I think you look fab. I badly want to pounce on those Indigo bags. And I was just imagining your holly clusters. Thanks for centrepiece, living vicariously until we get to NS on weekend.<br />P.S. Rachel Khoo's "Little Paris Kitchen" (not Ina but fun and sweet) is out over here now. P.P.S.
