What we see & what we seem are but a dream within a dream...

All dressed up like an extra from Picnic at Hanging Rock (1967) for a vintage-inspired blogger picnic with online friends both old & new. For the occasion, I wore a stunning off-white checked organza empire-line midi dress with puff sleeves from whimsical British label Sister Jane's high end diffusion line Dream Sister Jane, a pair of shiny black patent ankle boots from Wittner, a black velvet pouch bag embroidered with gold, silver & brass suns & stars from my local Sportsgirl store to carry all the essentials, a trio of sparkly Indian bangles that a dear friend brought back from a trip to India many moons ago, a natural woven straw boater hat with black grosgrain ribbon tie from Forever New & finally, a pair of off-white crochet gloves that I picked up from a delightful stall at the Rocklea Collectibles Fair prior to Covid 19 restrictions.
