This little number was another vintage purchase over in the UK. I adore the colour!

Normally I’d dress this up a little with a cute belt and shoes… but hey, I’d just woken up and was standing beside our van in the countryside outside of Dubbo, NSW. We’ve had a little van trouble today (big thanks to the NRMA guy in Temora), so fingers crossed we get to Melbourne safe and sound – eep!

Also! Tomorrow marks the start of a big week for Epheriell Designs’ 3rd birthday! So I’m deferring my daily posts till the end of the week, when I’ll do a big round-up of the frocks I wore in Melbourne. If you follow me on twitter you’ll see them – I’ll aim to tweet a pic each day instead!

You can still sponsor me over yonder. Please help me reach my pledge goal, I’ve still got a way to go!

My Frocktober Pledge

I have a couple of pledges for Frocktober – which is an annual event to raise money for Ovarian Cancer Research:

• Each day I will don a vintage or handmade dress, take a photo, and blog about it here on Epheriell Designs. Considering I’m travelling to Melbourne and Canberra to attend the Problogger Training Day AND attending one of my bestie’s weddings, it’s going to be a frocktabulous month, and I might even be able to drag some other ladies into the fray!
• I am going to sew my very first dress!!! {DONE!}Yes, I am very, very excited about this – and terrified, too! I have the perfect pattern, the perfect fabric – and it’s one of my goals for 2011. This is just the kick in the skirt that I need to get it done!
• At the end of the month I’m going to auction off one of my vintage dress collection, and all the money raised will go into my pledge fund!
