Che

Once upon a time in San Francisco's Chinatown, there was a young lady that expressed strong interest in acquiring a cheongsam. Said young lady looked so fabulous in it I would have immediately purchased it her, had finances permitted.

This same young lady has a birthday today, and has expressed a preference for upbeat music, possibly involving a banjo or a mandolin, and this video makes me smile long and deep every time as well as featuring that same style of dress.

Che, this one's for you, and the dress I'll get for you one of these days...

Very, very nice.

Mandolin AND banjo. Well played, sir :-)

I have a few metres of black printed chinese silk in my wardrobe at the moment, waiting for me to find an inexpensive but talented dressmaker and get something happening. You reminded me to get on that.
