Sequins galore, the show of leg, rosette arrangements with the netting and those shoes! I would wear those shoes with jeans and get my marginal utility out of them (my husband is an economist and i've used his terms to justify purchases.) Your Mr F is hilarious checking the invite and get it done! Good man to have at your side! Plus aren't dahlias cool? They are long lasting like carnations but have a more exotic presenceAbout Last Weekendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04716571630418078937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2592623582663323372.post-55149774121414477162014-04-01T18:48:11.996+10:002014-04-01T18:48:11.996+10:00You look amazing!!!! lovely post!!

Oh gosh they were glorious. How could I have allowed myself to be parted from them....*sob*...The only problem with Mr Christian was to enter the store and only leave with one pair of sublime and utterly unique shoes :)Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12189100084557458199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2592623582663323372.post-17586417120376086412014-04-01T16:23:26.186+10:002014-04-01T16:23:26.186+10:00Thank you, Cilla. :D it came up a treat...real hou...Thank you, Cilla. :D it came up a treat...real housewife of Brisbane. ;DFlora Fascinatahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02307285983019254214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2592623582663323372.post-66087939798900222552014-04-01T16:22:05.064+10:002014-04-01T16:22:05.064+10:00How good are the dahlias!!!?

Alas, I charity binned them years before I realised that the likes of Mr Christian would never grace Edward St again....*sigh*....What a wonderful cause and what a treat to find use for random purchases. Do I make random purchases? Only all the time! Do I use them....ahem...mostly.
