RWC Friday - better late than never!



Red white and blue striped 
Trevira Dress "A Glaven Garment" 
Made in New Zealand c 1960s (?)
$5 TradeMe
Red plastic bracelet and red rose plastic ring

 Beautiful Kowhai Tree in my garden in full bloom!


Dappled shade creates a softer light and makes it easier for both 
photographer and "subject"


Hair adorned with red rose and feather hair accessory

This ensemble caused a few raised eyebrows at work...
but onions, a striped top and a beret would have been too easy!

Viva la France!!!

  3. Thanks Nelly - I did get a few funny looks at work, but the highlight was when a co-worker said to me that the dress reminded her of an air stewardess uniform from the 1960s!! I felt like the real me had finally arrived.
