The Christmas Vogue 1191


Here it is, pre turkey, pre eyelash application but post Christmas cocktail - which with hindsight was possibly the wrong order of doing things.

We had to get the bus to my friend's apartment for lunch and I felt so silly in the drag queen eyelashes I wore sunglasses, which looked almost as crazy. Ok maybe not....


Hope you all had a lovely time, we are winding down now but enjoying seeing England thrashing the Aussies at cricket!

  15. The dress is just fab - and still giggling at the eyelashes. I call myself an Aussie in most things, except when it comes to the Ashes - go the Poms! And cricket watching is a great accompaniment to sewing.

  16. Your dress looks lovely and just right for the holiday. I was wondering what the dress patten would look like made up in a solid color fabric. The draping looks terrific. What fun eyelashes!

  19. Such a gorgeous dress! I want one too!
    I probably should care that we're getting flogged in the cricket, but I really don't! The eyelashes are a bit funky, I have no idea how you get those things to stay on, I've never had any success with them, lordy knows I've tried! anyway, great outfit, & best of all, you can wear that dress again (did I mention I LUV it?!)

  22. Gorgeous dress--so incredibly flattering! I really must get around to that pattern, I have a deep magenta wool jersey earmarked for it. Love the lashes, too. What fun!
