Fashion Friday

Since the holidays are coming quickly, I thought I'd show some party dresses. These are all from Igigi. I love this sexy, lacy dress that shows off a little cleavage but covers flaws (like chubby arms.

Detail of the lace.

Another one that shows off the assets and covers the flaws with a pretty waist detail.

Jeweled waist.

This is the detail of the following dress. Very similar to the first but the lace is different.

These are my kind of party dresses!

A slim sheath with jeweled neckline.

A basic black dress to play with but still with the figure flattering assets.

Tomorrow I'm off to Griffith Park Observatory with Meetup friends. This place reminds me of James Dean and "Rebel Without a Cause" since a lot of that movie was filmed there. And then on Sunday to a Glitzy Red Hat Luncheon. Pictures to follow.

Have a great weekend!

Wolf Mountain Sanctuary in Lucerne Valley

Here's out Meetup group having a group picture with the wolves. Our guide was getting them (and us) to howl.

These are all wolves not dogs.

I get to pet a howling wolf!

Isn't he beautiful?

More howling...nice teeth!

These wolves have all been rescued from private owners and all were raised in captivity. They can't be released to the wild because they wouldn't survive.

I love wolves. They are my favorite wild animals that are found in the states.

Saying "Hi" to us.

This trip was on Sunday and well worth the drive from Riverside (about 2 hours)! It was about 80 degrees that day. In the summer it can be over 110 degrees so the sanctuary has terrific water bills to keep the wolves cool. You can find out more at wolfmountainsanctuary.com

Hope you're having a great week!

Will at the Kyoto Grand Hotel for the WAVE

This is the add for the show. I got there at 5:30, the band was setting up and people were in line. They weren't pleased that I got in ahead of them. "Being with the band" has its' perks!
Jennifer and I (and a few others) got to sit in overstuffed chairs right behind the dance floor. This was as close as you could get...AKA the VIP section!


Art of Sax on stage with muscian friends. People danced and had a good time!

Eddie and the sweet, beautiful Jennifer. Why can't I be photogenic?

Will, Patrick (the drummer) and John (sax).

Will with me. This was such a fun show! Beautiful venue, too. (I always hate my photos though!)

I had such a busy weekend...what with Halloween and going to the Wolf Mountain Sanctuary!

Pictures to follow of the wolves.
