Alice in Wonderland!

I love going to the theater! The whole preparation process: mani/pedi, choosing {sometimes that involves shopping of course!} an outfit; I always wish that I had more time to prepare, but its fun nonetheless.

Friday we went to see Alice in Wonderland.  It was really a cute play, I was surprised how many young children were in it; the little girl playing the mouse couldn't have been more than 3-years old.

My outfit was a last minute pick.  I've only worn it once in the entire 8-years I have owned it {to see Nutcracker in NYC}.  Since my closet, and 'staging room' has all the fall clothes out pulled out and the summer clothes being put away. (Edgar just asked me this morning 'how he could help get all those clothes put away') {oh dear....} (TODAY I complete this project!  That is my goal!) I'm very excited about 'shopping my closet' again.

So when I saw this Tracy Allen dress, I decided to wear it.  I spent so much time styling it that I neglected my hair, and by the time we took pictures, the cute little updo that I had done sans clips and pins had fallen out.  (outfit was much cuter with an updo).

I'm excited for the movie to come out in 2010!

Alice in Wonderland playbills behind us

I think I am a bit behind in posting my Labor Day weekend activities, but still wanted to share because I saw an interesting play in San Diego, CA, called “It’s the Housewives”. For those of you who liked the music of Wings and/or Paul McCartney, this may be interesting! Laurence Juber, who was lead guitarist for Wings and his wife, Hope, who is a playwright, director, songwriter, both wrote and directed this play. The website is www.itsthehousewives.com. We went to the opening night and there was a small gathering for cake and food afterwards on the roof of the building; great view of the city.

My dress is from Barney’s and the jacket is a shrunken bell-sleeve trench from Paper Doll on Melrose in Los Angeles, CA. DKNY sandals. Jewelery from Nordstrom and J. Crew.
