Today's costume

Today's costume. 
This is close to my look today, except my retro metallic coat I dug out of the wardrobe looks like a mix of these two Burberrys and is single breasted.

Look at those heels, imagine them with a pointed peep toe-top.. Let's just say my feet looked like something out of a butcher's shop.

How did you learn to walk in high heels?

Family picnic- Beautiful Australia

Today was such a wonderful day.

Australia is a beautiful place, it's nice to pop into a nature reserve park for a barbecue, past the gumtrees with white cockatoos squawking, as the sun sets and cyclists pass on their scenic route in the distance.

Setting up in the last rays of  today's Springtime sun, showing little hands how to peel paperbark and  where wattle flowers are, spying bunnies shying in the darkness on a drive back home towards a bay of  bleeding rainbow skies.

This is pretty much what I wore today for family veggie-burger flipping and enjoying the very best things life gives us in good company.

..Except I made the bag and knitted bracelets myself.

REALITY:

Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Hope you have a lovely day :)

My resolution- Visit the beach more often

My resolution by simplastic featuring a fedora hat
.. I live about a 10 minute walk away from the beach here in beautiful Australia and even in Summer, rarely take advantage of it.
Here's my mid-year resolution, to take advantage of being able to feel the sand between my toes, even when it's a little chilly.
