So elated to be sharing all of the gorgeous pictures from a morning spent traipsing around the shopping centre with my mother, relishing the opportunity to check out all the Christmas decorations & feel the festive vibes before the "busy season" truly kicks off. I'm posing in one of the celebrated Indooroopilly Shoppingtown light-up baubles - the one on the top floor nearest to Bed Bath 'n Table - wearing a beautiful, 1960s inspired blue & white floral jacquard shift dress with matching belt from Australian label Review, a pair of white & tan leather sandals from Easy Steps that I picked up at my local Myer store (after falling in love with their art deco aesthetic) & a tan vinyl crossbody bag with wooden clasp from a sweet little boutique called Soul Nook Collective in the old church at Marburg to carry all the essentials including the ever-present facemask & hand sanitizer. When it came to jewellery, I wore some favourites - a vintage silver bangle from sadly-now-defunct 20th Century Antiques & Collectibles at Coolangatta that my brother gave me & a stack of vintage Mexican silver bangles gifted by some dear friends - as well as a little nod to the silly season with a handmade ceramic brooch in the shape of a gingerbread man from the Queensland Art Gallery gift shop.
