Yummy drinks and dinner at Budda BarDSCN4480

A dress, live music & desserts for dinner

Wednesday, October 21st, 2015

A few steps from my hotel is this gorgeous shop that had many of my favorite designer’s works of art.  There were so many beautiful, dazzling dresses, outfits and shoes… it was dreamy.

Then this dress. I couldn’t take my eyes off of.

The sales people were so nice and inviting (they were actually celebrating something with champagnes and cakes and even offered us some) I almost, almost tried this dress on.

I regret i didnt’. 😛

I flew to Monaco last night solo on a business trip. It was super hard leaving my kids and Andrew this time more than any other time I did in the past. Maybe because it’s international and I don’t normally fly this far or maybe because kids are now older and they expressed more how much they’re going to miss me…:(DSC_2519 DSC_2522 DSC_2524 DSC_2525 DSC_2527 DSC_2530 DSC_2531 DSC_2534 DSC_2535 DSC_2538 DSC_2540

This is one beautiful city.
