Silver-Platter Style

Feeling like Sophia Loren in Karina

savona CollageMy bucket list has always included Italy.

I don’t know if it’s because that’s the neighborhood I grew up with, the food that I found comfort in, or the culture that is so open and warm that attracts me, but it has had eluded me for a very long time.  So when I finally stepped off of the deck of the Costa Luminosa in Savona, Italy I felt like I had finally arrived.

Of course, my head was filled with visions of Sophia Loren in a classic dress and all of her beauty, and while I do NOT by any means look like her, I was able to channel a little of the Italian beauty in my beautiful Megan style dress reminiscent of Sophia Loren in the 1940’s sent to me by Karina Dresses.

The day was overcast and most of the shops were closed as we pulled into port at an unusual hour, but that didn’t dampen my mood any as we found a FABULOUS restaurant and I indulged. Thankfully the Megan has a lot of give, because I think I put on 10 pounds in one sitting.

I’ve since worn this dress MANY times as the classic look and fit are so timeless. Living in South Florida, the short flowing sleeve is perfect for the hot sticky days, yet look quite business-like when paired with a simple blazer (for cooler weather).

One of my favorite things about ALL of the dresses by Karina is their timeless femininity. They never just hang in my closet waiting for an occasion or a destination. I wear them EVERYWHERE!

How did you do?

Did you choose the Megan dress for Savona?

    One function of the bustle and the hoopskirt
    was to make the waist look smaller and to enhance the bust.

    You can correct and adjust the ready made design pattern at your will.

    Broadband and problematic stunts are their pastime right now.

    Artificial baits include spoons, jigs, ribbon baits, rattler baits & streamer baits.
    For instance at a time when anglers where sticking rigidly to the mantra of 3 to 5 milliliters
    of flavour, plus 1 to 2 milliliters of intense sweetener
    to a pound of base mix or more, as measured by 4 large eggs or 6 medium eggs as a basis of measurement, I tried other
    approaches and reaped big rewards against much more
    experienced anglers. Revealed in my unique readymade bait and homemade bait carp and
    catfish bait secrets ebooks is far more powerful information look up my unique
    website (Baitbigfish) and see my biography below for details of my ebooks deals right now.

    There is Playboy, Cosmopolitan and such others which people can buy and
    read about their stars. Baby Phat tees were launched in 1998 and
    quickly grew to become hot favorites of the celebrities. For
    any record, mainly because it’s simple isn’t going to make it monotonous.
