A lovely day for motoring.
Seeing these fabulous outfits and sparkling automobiles makes a gal want to bang a cloche on her head, leap into her Hispano-Suiza and head for the seaside.
Or countryside.
Depending on the whims and weather.
With a delicious man (aka hubby) by her side and faithful companion (aka daughter) in the back with picnic basket and thermos of tea, and a trunk full of champagne, life could not be better.

Phryne fantasy finished. Time to get back to that ironing.........
Royal Automobile Club of Australia, Sydney - Jan 2015. Clothes by Cavalcade of History and Fashion.
Oh my word, these are early 20th century fashions are marvelous. The cream walking suit draped with a fur stole caught my eye in particular. I think I would have lingered there at a show of this nature until they threatened to call security on me. :D
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this fun outing with us. I adored seeing it!

Very retro!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. I think I lingered a bit too long at this exhibition considering the look of irritated boredom on hubby's face. ;)
ReplyDeletequite dapper duds, there! :)
ReplyDeleteI can picture you in the lovely apricot/blushy-pinky number 3rd down, dear Debs ! I'll bet the ironing went a lot faster while you had that lovely daydream.
ReplyDeleteThrift shop? Museum? Whichever, it would be a nice respite away from a real world.
ReplyDeleteTexWisGirl: You said it! :)
ReplyDeleteShell Sherree: I can absolutely see myself in that ensemble too. I wonder if they would notice it missing???
Birdman: Especially since in the real world it was bucketing down outside at the time.
Oh Miss Fisher! I adore her and that show. I've only seen through season 2 though. Waiting (sort of) patiently for season 3 to show up here in the States! :)
ReplyDeleteMary I am pleased to announce that series 3 starts in Australia on May 8th, so you should get it not long after. :)
