It really WAS a birthday weekend! 



Attended yet another celebration this afternoon, with a combined 100th Birthday High Tea for Belinda & her mother, Cathy. Despite the hot weather, the decorated backyard was shady & cool, creating the perfect space to enjoy pleasant company, eat delicious finger-food & watch the birthday girls blow out the candles...



Decided to dress to theme with this sweet vintage dress, generously gifted to me by a friend's mother, who had it specially made in the 1960s. The baby-pink crepe with white lace floral overlay was just crying out for some pastel accessories & I happily obliged, mixing it with a pair of mint green patent pointy-toed pumps & a mint green textured shoulder bag with tassel. To draw both of the hues together, I added a hinged Disney Couture bangle with a scene from Cinderella - including the pumpkin coach & castle - on one side & a beautiful message that "Dreams Come True" inside. Scroll down for close-ups:




All that remains is to say:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BELINDA & CATHY!
May the years ahead bring good health & happiness!
