Finally posting the pictures from an extremely hot & humid Sunday afternoon at my favourite local park, replete with historic limestone gates, croquet club lawn, animal sanctuary, peace garden, kiosk serving delicious cakes as well as piping hot chips & all manner of playground equipment including swings, slides, climbing frames & flying fox. Accompanied by my best friend & her two rambunctious boys, we made the most of the virtually deserted destination (an approaching thunderstorm will do that... spoiler alert: it didn't arrive in the end...) sheltering in the kiosk while the rain fell before hitting the equipment with gusto to "make up for lost time" the way only an eight year old (& his almost two year old shadow) can!
I'm wearing a vintage tribal-printed rayon smock in vibrant shades of pink, purple, orange & green (to name but a few) by famed designer Gwen Gwillam, gifted to me a few years ago & still one of the most prized additions to my wardrobe; a pair of beige leather lace-up sandals with coloured pom-poms from Wittner; matching vinyl cross-body bag from Sportsgirl & finally, a handmade blue & white ceramic & gold cuff from Cafe D'Bar's Art Gallery.
Scroll down to see how it all unfolded...

Yup. All that playground equipment & he goes for a couple of sticks... the same ones you can find in backyards everywhere!
