Guilty Pleasures for the New Year


Well, it looks as if another year is about to end, and that means the Mistress is deciding what to wear for receiving guest tomorrow for my New Years Eve dinner. I do think a bow tie will be in order of course, one of my guilty pleasures, but here is another I am considering..........

 
How swank is that!!!! I'm so in love with that hat!!!! And don't under estimate me. Those who know me, know I would so wear this! Maybe next year though, as I have no swan, and I hadn't alerted the guest to a hat and mask party,damn. But I thinking I am in love with this look for the evening......


I just love this look, fitted, chic and fun, not to serious, and bow ties are so fun for a New Years Eve. I have most of these pieces right now in the closet. Meanwhile this weekend,the weather outside was frightful....another snowfall has come.....



But the weather inside was quite delightful........


Some of my guilty pleasures, my favorite pomegranate candle from Henri Bendel, some warm Domaine de Canton ginger liqueur, and a weekend of watching Downton Abbey, which was a gift I received this Christmas. I tell you this, if the mischievous footman Thomas would like to be mine since he is under appreciated in Downton, I'd be more than happy for him to be my first footmen, and then I would love to have some tea with the Dowager Countess. A perfect relaxing weekend to wrap the new year, at least till guest arrive tomorrow.

  2. I wish I was comming to your New Years eve dinner! I love Downton Abbey and can not wait for it to start. You and the Lady Crawley could never have tea together, you and her would be to much trouble together.

  9. I love the oufit you want to wear! You'd look so handsome! I love the stripe pants, fun not to stiff for a evening. And do my eyes deceive, or do I spy a Swedish Angel chime?

  12. Thomas (Rob James-Collier) used to play a character named Liam in a British show I watch called “Coronation Street.”

    Here he is shirtless. Skip ahead to around 38 seconds into the clip and enjoy from there.
