AT LAST: THE NAVY LACE DRESS and HENRI CARTIER-BRESSON


Do you remember the cute little red hat Kate wore in Canada?
Well, it has appeared again, this time teamed with a gorgeous red lace dress,
worn to a wedding last weekend.
Here's the red hat in Canada:



Don't have any red lace, but
I've had my length of navy lace tucked away in the stash for, hmmmm,
many years....
Anyhoo, this week,
Readers: I Made It!!
Presenting - Ta Dum: The Navy Lace Dress:


To be worn with Cuff and Earrings from Forever New:






I've been to see the exhibition
Henri Cartier-Bresson: The Man, The Image & The World
at the Qld Art Gallery.
Wonderful photographs, by the father of modern photo-journalism;
it is like a roll-call of the 20th century's most famous moments.

Cartier Bresson was there when Ghandi was assassinated, and when Mao and the People's Liberation Army took over in China in 1949.  He was there for the Liberation of France, and the student riots of 1968.
He was in Moscow in 1954, during the Cold War, and he travelled throughout the USA and Asia, taking memorable pictures.  Many of the most famous images ever made are in the exhibition.  Don't Miss It.


We had lovely rain this morning - the garden was soooo pleased.
But it is gone already :-(

Disappointed..

  2. Kate appears to have a ton of common sense and is not afraid to recycle. Good for her.

    Yes a bit more rain would be nice.
