Tomorrow night..

[pimpinett]

...it's time for Die Walküre. I'm ill, but I would not miss it for the world - will stuff myself with ibuprofen and bromhexin beforehand and bring lots of cough drops.

People don't dress up much for the opera in this part of the world, but I'm planning on wearing a late 30's evening jacket in black wool crepe with all-over black beading over a plain black dress in the same fabric, from the same era. Warm and cozy, and I love that jacket - it's an incredibly versatile garment,  very easy to wear and still very festive.
