Just a quick glance at my Christmas outfit photographed so beautifully by Mr Actor on the bush track behind my sister's house in Sydney, where we had a gorgeous Christmas feast. Thanks Sis!
Evidence of recent bushfire.
I handstitched this dress to be a stage outfit but couldn't perform at the last minute, so decided to stage it at Christmas lunch!
Closeup of the silver sparkly fabric and the massive-costume-statement-can't-miss-it necklace!
(Most people said the fabric looked like chainmail)
It was a bit more tenty than I planned as the fabric stretches so much, but it was light and drapey enough to be cool in the heat. The sparkles lift it.
A fun outfit that had many positive comments! And we did enjoy our bush walk...to walk off the first course ready for desert!
Hope you are all nicely recovered from any overindulgence ;-)
'Til next time, keep on creating!
Love,
Jazzy Jack

The necklace is perfect with the simplicity of the dress. Heat at Christmas is still fascinating to me.

ReplyDeleteyou look so elegant! love the whole look! and handstitched? OMG. never would have that patience....
thanx for the lovely poem over @ moi!!!

Very pretty! Love the smile on your face.
ReplyDeleteNot tenty, fluid, I think you mean the intention was for it to be fluid, much better. ;). And that's a knockout necklace.
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, I don't think I've stopped over indulging yet! Maybe in February???
Happy New Year to you.

Fabulous Christmas outfit, Jazzy! I'm in love with the flowy lines, the necklace and the hat! Photos are great as well - compliments to Mr Actor!
ReplyDeleteWow. You and Mr. Actor are quite the pair. Beautiful photos. That dress is fabulous! I don't know how you made a chainmail tent look so stylish but you did.
ReplyDeleteWow I'm very impressed that you hand stitched the dress! Love the necklace.
