summerland

my dear friends lindsey and liz came with me to the opening of my summerland show

lindsey made a great video at the start of the show
love the birdsong, sunshine, the sound of her shoes...
and hearing her refusing a glass of champagne!

thanks lindsey!




and here are a few photos of the show before the people arrived






***warning it all gets a bit girly from here...
but do come along if you like shoes and dresses


we matched the flowers perfectly
