New Year’s Eve Party: Fantasy Style

This year, I’m thrilled to not be the one hosting the New Year's Eve party, thus this post will not be filled with how to decorate your table, what to serve, etc. Instead, I want you to join me as I prepare for the evening; free of the responsibilities that come with being a generous and meticulous hostess. Also, you’re going to be green with envy when you see where I will be ringing in the New Year…

The kiddos are with the in-laws which gave me the rare opportunity to take a rejuvenating long soak before getting dressed.

opulent jewelry is a must

makeup is applied with a light hand; after all I’ll be dancing the night away and too much make up would not be a good idea...

i think this bun is a success, don’t you?

so, what do you all think about my look? my dress is a Ferragamo btw

my girlfriends should be here any minute now…

one final check to make sure i have all the essentials...

and we’re off! time to partaay!!

O.K, my friends, while we’re on our way, feast your eyes on where the party will be…

Location: Miami

what a place right? perfect place to ring in the new year

O.k, darlings, what a ride we had this year! I have a feeling 2013 will be even more spectacular! Thank you for sharing 2012 with me, now onward to an even better 2013. I’m off to dance the night away; see you back here in January! Blessings and much love. XX
