I love the sound of the Contessa and the opera cloak in Safeway, what class!

I loved seeing your pics! I've traveled with both Kim and Jennifer and we've become IRL friends for certain. Love those two. I met La Contessa (so fab!) in Napa. I was sorry you weren't able to join us due to being out of town. You are lucky ladies to all live fairly close. Next time I come down from the 'valley' would love to meet up. Is it true about the white wine and vitamins? I love a little savvy myself.
