Finally sharing all the beautiful pictures from a day spent celebrating my darling mother Joanne's birthday with a beautiful bunch of flowers from Flowers of the World at Paddington, some heartfelt presents both modern & vintage that were sourced from so many of our most-frequented stores & boutiques, delicious vanilla, pistachio & strawberry macaroons from Passiontree Velvet & family dinner at one of our favourite places in Brisbane, Creole Soul Kitchen at Spring Hill.

Posing on the side of the road before filling my belly with delicious, spicy creole food & raising our glasses to a truly wonderful mother & inspirational human being wearing a gorgeous deep purple cotton/satin seamed fit-to-flare dress with 1960s-style neckline from Aussie label Anthea Crawford, a pair of black suede pointy-toed slingbacks with faux pearl toe detailing from Hisapanitas Shoes via Peter Sheppard, a boxy black suede handbag with silver hardware from French Connection, a chunky silver hinged bangle from Wallace Bishop for that touch of shine & finally, a cutesy white faux pearl headband from Dissh to complete the look.
