<p>I love dressing for the opera – I decided to re-do an outfit I wore to dinner with friends this weekend because it suited the occasion perfectly.</p>  <p><a href="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_60421.jpg"><img title="IMG_6042" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="413" alt="IMG_6042" src="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_6042_thumb1.jpg" width="550" border="0" /></a></p>  <p>I love these bracelets that my mother got me from her last trip to India.&#160; Since I was wearing my gold shoes I decided to bring the tone up a little higher.&#160; We Indian people love our little elephants.</p>  <p><a href="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_60401.jpg"><img title="IMG_6040" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="414" alt="IMG_6040" src="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_6040_thumb1.jpg" width="550" border="0" /></a></p>  <p>I love it when the Boy wears pink.</p>  <p><a href="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_60451.jpg"><img title="IMG_6045" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="731" alt="IMG_6045" src="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_6045_thumb1.jpg" width="550" border="0" /></a></p>  <p>The Boy prefers German operas like Wagner – I like them but prefer Italian and French ones.</p>  <p><a href="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_60391.jpg"><img title="IMG_6039" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="413" alt="IMG_6039" src="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_6039_thumb1.jpg" width="550" border="0" /></a></p>  <p>I love our city at night.</p>  <p><a href="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_60431.jpg"><img title="IMG_6043" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="414" alt="IMG_6043" src="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_6043_thumb1.jpg" width="550" border="0" /></a></p>  <p>I like matching the gold decor.</p>  <p><a href="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_59681.jpg"><img title="IMG_5968" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="624" alt="IMG_5968" src="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_5968_thumb1.jpg" width="550" border="0" /></a></p>  <p>The black silk skirt was handmade in Hong Kong and the aqua-marine shirt was a gift and a nod to St. Patrick’s Day.</p>  <p><a href="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_60272.jpg"><img title="IMG_6027" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="732" alt="IMG_6027" src="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_6027_thumb2.jpg" width="550" border="0" /></a></p>  <p>I couldn’t be happier – it was a perfect St. Patrick’s Day and a perfect way to end the opera season.&#160; Because of our trip to China we missed all of the autumn and winter performances (a nice trade-off though!) but we got to enjoy <em>The Marriage of Figaro </em>(charmingly hysterical and beautifully staged)<em> </em>and <em>Tosca (</em>nice, not a favorite).</p>  <p><a href="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_60511.jpg"><img title="IMG_6051" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="731" alt="IMG_6051" src="http://ionlyweardresses.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/img_6051_thumb1.jpg" width="550" border="0" /></a></p>  <p>I hope your St. Patty’s Day was full of merry-making and good music too!</p>
