Hiya, {aussiemagpie}!

I knew Carla would win hands-down in the fashion stakes!

I actually would have preferred a little more color.
HOWEVER,
I learned something a week or two ago.
In preparation for her trip to Europe this summer, we have had some meetings with the tour leader of the group my daughter will be travelling with, one of her teachers.

They told the kids that if they didn’t want to “stand out”, they should not bring brightly colored clothing, that Europeans tend not to wear bright colors.

I have never been to Europe and so I don’t know if this is true - but Carla Bruni in that dress seems to be making the point.
