MY FIRST BLACK TIE PARTY EVER

Unbelievably I'm going to my very first black tie do on Saturday night.
I'm going down to Devon tomorrow to stay with my old school friend and she is holding the party. So I get to wear my very fab party frock.
So I thought I'd just leave some New York pics for your perusal whilst I'm away




At the subway station in Queens with views into Manhattan.


Brooklyn Bridge with Manhattan Bridge behind it.


Brooklyn Bridge with Manhattan Bridge Behind it


The Rockefeller Building that we went to the top of all 66 floors!


The Empire State from the Top of the Rock


A Yellow cab outside the Guggenheim


A Dinosaur Christmas tree outside the natural History Museum


I like the juxtaposition of the tree with the high rise behind it
