Dress dreaming - Oscar De La Renta
Image sourced from style.com |
We're half way through the month and I have to say, I'm tired. Tired of my dresses, tired of Gina's dresses. I find myself wondering if I can get away with a skirt - whether that counts as frock. It doesn't I've been told.
So, today is a day for dreaming - dreaming of dresses I wish I owened and had occasion to wear, but don't. Dresses I covet but will probably never come within a finger tip of, except as I flip lazily through glossy magazines on my balcony in the heat of summer - enjoying a vodka tonic and dreaming of the balls and parties of another time, or another life.
So I thought I share with you a creation by my all time favourite couturier, Oscar De La Renta. Oscar doesn't simply make and design dresses - he brings my girlhood fantasies of cinderella to life.

Day 3: Ben Kweller concert
So, on Sudnay night I went to see Ben Kweller at the Factory Theatre, and in the excitement of it all, I forgot to take a photo of my dress.
So instead, I'm posting this song.

Day 1 - Two headless ladies
Frocktober kicked off today with slightly sombre colours to reflect the Sydney weather. Spring had sprung earlier in the week, and legs were shaved, tans applied, in great anticipation for the October First Frock.
Alas, Sydney's sun decided to take an even longer weekend - tans were put away, and opaques came back out to play much to our dismay!
Enough rhyming - fingers crossed for a better showing next week - stay tuned as we continue to Frock Up for Frocktober!
