Almost autumn



wearing:
cream coloured coat - my mother's wardrobe
60's minidress (once was a maxi) - Salvation Army store
crochet cardigan - Wanaka Recycling Centre
brown leather boots - secondhand store
sunglasses - retail, cheap
vintage camera bag - markets







Yesterday was definitely an almost-autumnal day. Not the warmest or driest of days, so I wore this creamy-coloured and practical coat with a very handy hood to keep myself dry during the occasionally rainy patches. The day involved finding a couple of lovely things at a vintage sale and lunch at Burgers & Beers on Colombo St.

This dress has an amazing collar and cut-out back, it's a shame you can't see them in these photos! It was made in New Zealand by 'American Lady', and I have another dress very similar to this but blue (worn here) with the same label, but can't find anything about it on the internet. Do any of you lovely ladies  know anything about this brand? I love these dresses to bits and want to know more!
