Definitely not new shoes, honest

The party season is almost upon us and for that one usually needs pretty, possibly sparkly things to wear, although not here, Germans lurrrrve the casual look, jeans and Jack Wolfskin attire seem appropriate for most occasions apparently - unless expats are involved that is. We (the girls anyway) take the dressing up for a party as seriously as the actual partying, woe betide someone who turns up in jeans and a practical, washable top!
