If you could play the role in any movie of your choice, who would you be?  Without a second thought, I'd play a Bond Girl.  They're witty, full of mystery, glamorous, and always "unexpectedly," meet a handsome Bond in an exotic location.  And while they're often short lived, we can never forget them.  The 23rd installment of 007, Skyfall, premieres in the UK on October 26, and the continues the 50 year legacy.  Until the U.S. debut in early November, I will patiently listen to Adele sing the theme song, titled "Skyfall."  I guarantee you'll play this song more once! Happy Fiftieth Birthday, Mr. Bond!

  10. You look absolutely beautiful. I never get over how chic and stylish you always are. Confession: I have never watched a Bond movie. However, I have seen images of Bond girls and you are absolutely right they are extremely glamorous and you would definitely fit right in with them.

  36. I love your coat! It looks so sweet, warm, soft and comfortable, and its creamy colour is just fabulous. The handbag is precious too (it has such a good colour and goes with the coat).
    Your short hair is wonderful. And the location is great.

  38. Never watched many of the bond movies but I love how simple and sexy their make up looks were. I absolutely love your black sweater, it's so subtle but sexy, the hair is so great too. My hair now is really long, I loved it when it was shorter but I'm too happy with this length for now! :)

  46. I really love your coat this time, Bessie! I guess this is from their trend collection because spending 3 figures in H&M on a single item sounds criminal. I've been meaning to ask you, is the H&M offering better quality than similar items in this price range?

    I first heard the song on the radio a few days ago and wow - I wished for an immediate repeat! Can't ain't to see how this Bond movie turns out.

  56. Zara is where my sister and I go to a lot!

    The coat is lovely, I like how it flares out at the back waist. I normally buy coats that have an interesting detail on the back.

    I've always thought being a bond girl is cool. ;}

    P.s: I've sent you an email regarding Finance, hope you've received it.

  71. I've been catching up on your last few blog posts and all the jackets and leather and warm fall clothing seems so another world to me since we are having such a heat wave here in SoCal! You're making me so miss my warmer clothing! Soon enough I guess!
    I love love your Charles David booties from your last post and this great coat! The edgy cut sweater totally fits your new haircut!!!

  76. Dear Bessie, it has been too long since last time I visited your blog and how many beautiful outfits and what a great new hairstyle! It suits you perfectly and it gives you an even more sophisticated & 'fresh' look! I am a big fan of hairstyle changes as they give you the chance to experiment more with make-up and wardrobe. BTW, one of the first things I spotted was that gorgeous Chloe bag...excellent decision to get it! I'm sorry I was not there to give you some support but between my Asian trips and the return to a very busy work schedule, I didn't have much time for blogging...I hope all is well and I wish you a great Sunday! Caterina
