  3. Oh Toma….How I’ve missed you! My darling husband has been gone almost 8 months and I’m just getting back into the swing of things. Your party looks quelle magnifique. You look gorgeous, as always and I love the multi colored hose on one of your guests. I think I gained 20 lbs just by looking at the pictures. More from The Contessa soon.

  4. What a amazing collection of antiques you have around your house. The photographer has really done amazing job getting the feeling and activities of the party and it looks like you really enjoyed the night.
