Good Monday morning, lovelies! How are you all doing today? Did you have a good weekend? Mine was great despite some technological issues. Between blogger problems, an email virus and a dead computer I was beginning to think I was in some sort of a time warp. Luckily things seem to be back to normal now, finger's crossed!
Otherwise it was wonderful. We attended the Manhattan Cocktail Classic Gala at the New York Public Library Friday night and had a fabulous time. Everyone was dressed up to the nines, wandering the halls of the library with amazing cocktails in hand. My kind of night :)
Saturday was a gloomy day but we had a nice day despite the weather. My Aunt came into the city to see a play so we spent the day with her. And Sunday the weather wasn't cooperating again so we spent the day indoors catching up on TV and reading. At least everything seems to be getting back to normal so I have no complaints.
And lucky me, I get to start the week on a high note because I get to meet the amazing Christine of Bijou and Boheme & Alex of Things That Sparkle tonight while they're in town for the Design TV party. Can't wait to meet them in person! Things are looking up indeed :)
Hope you all have a lovely day! xoxo

I had a great weekend. Went out with friends, got a new haircut, rearranged the kitchen, partied... Am looking forward to the week with a lot of hope. The weather here has improved after a sunny, hot phase. Hope it stays this way.

Manhattan cocktail classic?!?! I've gotta look that up and check it out next year, sounds like my type of gala! Glad you had a great weekend, sometimes I feel as though the dreary weather is trying to tell me something, to stay at home and dive into one of my many books on my reading list. Have a wonderful week dahlin.

We have had such a rainy gloomy day, your lovely photos brought a much needed ray of sunshine! I can't wait for the peonies to bloom and to get out in the sun. Thank you for keeping hope alive!
coming back to all this rain has been such a disappointment. and it looks like it's going nowhere fast. darn.
Oh sounds like a completely fabulous night! Your beautiful images are cheering me up on this dreary Monday.
sounds like a lovely weekend. sometimes days spent catching up on tv are the best ones :)
I'm glad you had a fanfabulous weekend.. I'm still pondering over the fact that I'm hanging onto the 30 something and will enter the new age bracket in a year..um.. or two.... that said, I LOVE the exposure setting on the camera you have in the first photo!!! LOVE IT
