Oktoberfest starts this week, so I thought I’d better get shopping!
In fact, however, I’m leaving town prior. I’m glad too!
(Pretend) Shopping for a dirndl
get back, lauretta!
all things beautiful, with piccoli pezzi of Italian, a soupçon of French, & now ein bisschen of German!
get back, lauretta! 
Have to admit I do like that top – jacket? – third photo down, and to the right.
Hate to see the price, though.
Yep, good move, going.
There are some nice versions, relatively speaking, of these costumes. But the prices are very high. I’m told every person living in.Bavaria probably has some version of the appropriate outfit in their closet. I’m happy to be leaving before the big festival begins. Not my scene. :-))
P.S. Michael, I agree, that jacket is gorgeous!
