Avid readers of this blog will understand why bidding farewell to a not-so-stellar 2023 in a Little Black Dress seemed only fitting & I was excited to style it up to eat a few nibbles & watch the fireworks on television with some delightful company. The black satin midi slip dress was from my local Kmart store & was an absolute bargain at $25. Truth be told, I was happily surprised by its weight & quality & immediately set about adding accessories in the form of a pair of silver leather strappy heels from Jo Mercer for height, a silver mesh pouch bag from Australian designer Sacha Drake with chain strap for carrying any essentials & a shiny embossed silver cuff that was given to me by some dear friends a few years ago for that touch of "party" sparkle. Simple & pleasing - which is what I'm desperately hoping that 2024 will be, if I'm honest. Here's hoping that the new year brings new opportunities for love, growth, peace & understanding both in our personal lives & in the world.

Should old acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind
Should old acquaintance be forgot
And auld lang syne
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne
We'll take a cup of kindness yet
For auld lang syne
Auld Lang Syne by Robert Burns (1788)
