Vintage Picnic

Sunday was the first meet up for lovely vintage ladies here in Melbourne. I've been organising this for some time and kicking off regular meet up's with a picnic was a perfect idea! The weather was being delightful, most of us were able to make it and there was yummy food.


Iced tea, fruit salad, pink lemonade slice, rosewater cookies, cucumber sandwiches and red velvet cupcakes! Yum!


The flawless Marianne of Esme & The Laneway with Edie of An Scenic World in the background.


Beautiful Jessica and Margeaux


Margeaux Vallantyne, whom I met at Swing class in Fitzroy.


Cuties Elly of Clara Cupcakes fame and Danika.


Jessica and Eszter of Kitty's Drawings


This girl! I love her. Gabrielle of Drama of Exile


Me! I wore:

1940's deadstock lace dress - Etsy
1940's burnt orange hat - Etsy
1940's style swing shoes - Aris Allen
Vintage Mink (aka Minky) also deadstock - Ebay


It was ridiculously sunny!


What a swell day we had! I cannot wait for the next gathering in February.
