There was nothing she didn't have.
Beauty. Mystery. Buenos Aires society at her feet.
A signed first edition collection of Jorge Luis Borges (which she read). Housed in a 19th century ranch estancias on 820 acres.
All that, plus a husband away on an expedition in the Galapagos to study giant turtles.
Alone, on the veranda, with her, sipping a vintage Cabernet from her vineyard, I had to ask the one question any man wants to ask a woman this fascinating, this beautiful and this available.
"Where'd you get that vest?"
Aren't you glad I'm not just any man.
Double-Button Argentine Vest (No. 2517). She directed me to an expensive little shop in ParanĂ¡. Made of 100% cotton, it appears to be two vests in one. The inner vest is blue with white and yellow pinstripes and features 10 small decorative antique nickel buttons with functional thread loops. The outer vest is a darker blue cotton textured herringbone weave. Plunging V neck. Welted waist pockets.
For the Senorita de Estancia in you.
Women's sizes: 2 through 16. Imported.
Color: Textured Blue.
