Finally posting all the pictures from a wonderful - if a little rainy - Friday spent exploring all that the Southbank Cultural Precinct has to offer with family. I'm posing by the mighty Brisbane River wearing a gorgeous black lace fit-to-flare dress with funnel neckline & contrast white lace hem panel from Aussie brand Review - renowned for their "girly" aesthetic, black leather flat sandals with silver rivet detailing from Wittner - otherwise known as the perfect combination of style & comfort - & a vinyl crossbody bag with silver hardware from Urban Originals to hold all my valuables whilst leaving my hands free. When it came to accessories, I kept it simple - a black resin "coral" cuff from a market stall at Paniyiri Greek Festival a few years ago & a straw boater-style hat with black grosgrain ribbon & bow that I picked up for under $10 recently at the Redcliffe Markets... very Madeline, as far as I'm concerned... The red poppy is, of course, in deference to Remembrance Day (November 11) where we pay our respects to those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for freedom in this nation.
Well, now that all the fashion is taken care of, scroll down to see how the day unfolded...
Boardwalk Trek
Checking out "The World Turns" sculpture outside The Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA) with Uncle Rayne...
Stopping for a moment before entering through the gates to the Indigenous Knowledge Centre...
Checking out the view in the State Library's Indigenous Knowledge Centre "reading nook..."
Creating spaces to share knowledge & stories about our multicultural land & First Australians...
Feeding hungry little minds...
Planting & Watering Flowers in the State Library's Springtime Children's Exhibit...
Feeling craft in "The Corner," an area devoted to activities for children under the age of eight, encouraging creative play through hands-on art activities, digital integration & educational toys...
Heading to the Parklands during a brief sunny interlude...
Lunch at Brooklyn Depot never disappoints!
As usual, I'm (somewhat unsuccessfully) trying to devour the entire Pastrami on Rye Deli Sandwich with Potato Chips & Pickles on the Side...
Confucius & The Epicurious Garden
Hiding from yet another shower of rain inside the Fig Tree Playground's Mini Fortress...
Swing Time!
Spending a few final minutes at the playground before heading back to the car, exhausted but elated...
Check out that facial expression!
There's no hiding from group selfies when you're in the car with a blogger...
