Finally sharing all of the beautiful pictures from a day celebrating a wonderful woman - my mother Joanne - with thoughtful gifts including a Billing Boats African Queen (you know, from the Humphrey Bogart & Katherine Hepburn) model kit, delicious macarons from Passiontree Velvet & socially-distanced family dinner at one of our favourites, California Native at Coorparoo.
When it came to dinner on a balmy December evening, I wore a gorgeous navy & sky blue baroque embroidered mesh A-line midi dress with satin lining from Aussie designer Anthea Crawford - the same one as my mother wore in the black & rose gold colourway after some dear friends sent them to us to celebrate the occasion! - that I styled up with a pair of vibrant blue vegan leather deco heels from Kitten D'Amour, a vintage woven reed handbag from New Farm Antique Centre with a sweet silver & yellow Paris souvenir printed silk scarf (a Christmas present from a friend who lives in the City of Lights) tied around the strap for added colour & finally, a silver hinged bangle in the shape of a wave from the delightful Precious Stones Jewellers.
