Lunch, wine, and compliments

First, my excuse for not having posted in almost one month. We were on vacation and had a pretty busy program. And I needed a break from blogging. Maintaining a blog is more work and requires more consistency and diligence in research than you might think.

In mid-March, Franzi had another great day out-and-about on her home turf in Frankfurt. It was a full day en femme again with two outfits and hence two postings.

The day started as so often with a visit to Kleinmarkthalle, Franzi’s favorite lunch location in the heart of Frankfurt. Unfortunately, my most common lunch place had no space left – not even a single stool in a corner. For that reason, I ended up at that small Italian mom-and-pop stall I had talked about before, where I enjoyed a glass of wine with some bread and cheese.

While I was strolling through Kleinmarkthalle, I received an unsolicited compliment from a gentleman, who said “If I may say, this is a great look.“

But let us start at the beginning. My outfit for the day consisted of skin-tight black faux leather pants, back ankle boots, and a pink satin blouse. After some portrait photos at home, I walked along the bank of the river Main towards downtown and stopped for a photo opportunity at the back entrance of “Kaiserdom St. Bartholomäus,“ Frankfurt’s Cathedral, again.

I had left my medium-length blonde wig more-or-less ungroomed for that day. I had washed it a couple of days earlier and simply brushed it out numerous times, using different oils and treatments.

I love this photo, because it is so much Franzi, don’t you think?

After the lunch break, I went shopping but didn’t buy anything. And before I headed home to change for the evening event, I stopped at this hip wine bar in the “Neue Altstadt” that you know from various previous pictures taken on the inside or outside. Here, I received another unsolicited compliment, this time from a lady, who said „You look great.“ I love receiving compliments, in case I didn’t mention that before.

And then it was time to rush home to change, because someone special was waiting that evening, or let’s say, the spirit of someone special.
