Fifth Avenue IRL

Here’s what Sharon and I got up to on Saturday morning. You’ve seen the Fifth Avenue plan and the Fifth Avenue prep posts for this dress. I put on a bit of lippy, got dolled up in Fifth Avenue and we took these photos at the old GPO. 
We walked into the hotel in our normal weekend gear and I got changed quickly out of my me-mades and swung out in this little gorgeous number with heels. 
Passers-by had fun watching us taking pics on a cold autumn morning. Thankfully the city is very quiet on the weekend.

But it was so much warmer inside and only a couple of holiday makers from the hotel around.
The pic below is for the detailed sewer who wants a closer look at the fit and the flounce.

Enjoy. I think this dress will be great for next month’s high tea.
Sew Chic patterns is where Fifth Avenue was designed.

  2. Wow, this is so classy! I really love it, it will be great for high tea. I also liked your tracksuit jacket from a few days back. It's really stylish with the contrasting sleeves.
