After being cooped up for some long due to Covid 19 restrictions, lockdowns & local cluster concerns, it felt liberating to be able to take some deep, fresh breaths of springtime air in my hometown's historical Queens Park. I'm channeling a bygone era with my gorgeous red & white rose printed cotton fit-to-flare 1950s-inspired dress from The Pretty Dress Company via That Shop, a vibrant red knit cropped cardigan from "girly" Aussie label Review, a pair of comfortable yet stylish white perforated leather sneakers from Wittner, a retro white woven shoulder bag with cream resin clasp from Pookie & Ness Vintage that might be almost fifty years old this year but is in pristine condition & finally, a pair of faux tortoiseshell sunglasses from Witchery to complete the look & protect my eyes from the Queensland sun's harmful rays.
