On the outskirts.....!

Excellent way to spend a Sunday morning.. Aimee (ma belle fille) and I went into Northbridge which is just over the bridge from the city centre to a special market day called 'Outskirts'... 'pop -up' stores and events held in streets, laneways and local shops all along James Street. Aimee found a few 'vintage' bargains and tried on and bought a  'facinator' (above), I on the other hand bought a gorgeous bunch of Ranunculus and arrived home with my purse 'intact'!! All in all not a bad sort of day.....

    The top photo immediately made me thinks of the old Campbell's Soup ad - do you have it in Australia? - mm, mm, good. The light in the bottom picture of your daughter makes her glow.

    Oh I just learned about a "fascinator" of late. My friend wore one when we went for drinks. I think you two shared a grand day.

    I love Aimee's facinator - just perfect for a Melbourne Cup outing!
    I'm sure, like you Grace - I would have purchased the pretty posy of ranunculus - love the way they have used the lime green wrapping paper - exquisite!

    Il est des jours où même des petits évènements rendent la vie merveilleuse.
    Bon début de semaine, Gracie!

    Didn't know about that market Grace. Sounds like a great place to go. Will check it out when back from holidays.

    We are big into the fascinators here (thank you Princess Kate) and it looks adorable on Aimee. She is your sister, not daughter, right?

    Bises,
