Roaring Twenties

An era of extravagance.

I'm extremely excited as my best friend has just purchased her wedding gown and it is stunning! She was tossing up between a 50's theme or 20's. She found her perfect dress and it's a 1920's style gown. So now the rest of the planning begins.... I'm in love with all things 20's and so today's post is dedicated to you, Katie.

These pictures evoked the jazz age for me. A little Gatsby, a little extravagant, and oh, so glamorous.

Masquerade

All photos by moi

My aunty recently celebrated her 50th birthday masquerade style.

As always, when my family gets together, there's a lot of crazy shenanigans and side-splitting laughter. The group photo above shows 3 generations in my family. My Grandmother is the one all in black on the right. The night was superb and I most definitely ended up with sore feet the next day from dancing the night away!

One Way Ticket to the Blues

I don't really have a one way ticket to the blues but I do happen to adore the Neil Sedaka song...

Feathers & Sequins

A little feathers & sequins for you this weekend. I must admit to feeling rather "ruffled" this weekend. Not in a bad way, just nerves. My latest show opened on Friday night and I always get the opening night jitters. Can't help it. Anyway, I'm 2 shows down with another one tomorrow and am already exhausted. Ready to hit the hay. Thankfully opening night was a hit!!

Back soon with some lovely links for the weekend.

Behind the Scenes: Thread People Vintage Dressing

Back in August I did a fun shoot wearing this gorgeous vintage dress sent to me by Thread People. If you missed it you can see it here. Last night I came across the above pics that my hubby had taken. A few behind the scenes shots on his iPhone and also a couple of test shots taken by the photographer, Edward Chiofalo. The last shot was taken by Edward but my hubby decided to have fun with it & make it look as vintage as possible. I love the way it turned out!
