Thursday Challenge—"celebration"

I'll be wearing this fetching little chapeau
day after tomorrow at our otherwise
relatively quiet New Year's celebration.
Hope you're planning some fun for that evening.

In Times Square

I actually took this picture a couple of days
before Christmas, at (believe it or not) 2 o'clock
in the afternoon.  There's no rain predicted
for tonight—that's good news for the estimated
1 million (!) people who will be gathering here.
I will most definitely not be joining that crowd,
but I wish them—and you—a very Happy New Year!

abc wednesday — D is for "dog"

Seems only right, since C was for "cat."  This is
Lola, who came to the New Year's Eve bash in
her new taffeta dress.  She knew she was the cutest
girl there too—although her mom here (whom I've 
featured before) was wearing a pair of peep-toe 
Louboutins with 4-inch heels.  They were both stylin'!

Looks like we're already up to E,
for envy.  But no.  My "dogs" were 
perfectly happy (and comfy) in 
my cheap black flats—honest!

Photo Hunt — "fuzzy"

This is my friend Lisa, the hostess at last night's New Year's Eve bash, and a young guest.
This photo qualifies for the category on two counts:  First, it's a bit fuzzy
(yes, Champagne had been consumed)—and I get a warm, fuzzy feeling
when I'm able to celebrate the new year with family and good friends.
Hope you all had a great time last night too!

Shadow Shot Sunday

 Do you know what you're wearing on New Year's Eve?
(Confession: I'd wear pj's if I could!)  If not, here are
some suggestions compliments of Macy's.

Greetings from Motor City

Detroit Airport, that is, where I spent 12

unexpected hours trying to change planes

on New Year's Eve.

Didn't get where I was going until well

after midnight, but Russell (the cab driver

I was with at the stroke of) and I had a

festive, if Champagne-less, moment.

Hope you were exactly where you wanted to be!
