Also known as my 28th birthday bash!
Next Tuesday, I will be turning a year older, and as a friend of mine, Mr Torquil Arbuthnot, was conveniently born only a few days before me, we decided to get together and throw a party to mark the occasion. It was last night, and I have just about recovered from both the fabulousness, and indeed the alcoholousness! I had the most wonderful night; so many of my lovely friends turned up and showered me with cards and pressies. I’m a lucky girl indeed!
Here’s what I wore for the occasion:
It’s a rather delicious black crepe dress, with a sequinned top and peplum. I had to add a belt, but will try to find a better, vintage one – this was just a new, plain satin one. I wore it with my black manhattan heel stockings and my divine Georgina Goodman shoes. The lovely lady in the photo with me is Miss Minna, Torquil’s better half. Here’s me with the birthday boy:

Oh, go on then, just one more. I know some if you think I am so classy and elegant… I beg to differ!

Wow what a wonderful party! You look gorgeous,as usual, and your friends look amazing too! My birthday is in just a bit more than a week and, what I wouldn't give for a "shindig" such as yours!
(to use one more exclamation point in this comment)Happy Birthday!

Proper parties are always good fun =) And happy birthday! Those photos look like they could be from some old photo album, everybody looks so classy and stylish in their vintage style.

Have a wonderful Birthday!! 🙂
A wee bit early, but happy birthday!!! 🙂 What a delightful party–just the sort of way to properly herald in another year! 🙂 All those gifts you got–so fun! I'm so envious of the Dita book; I'm dying to get a copy for myself (along with a zillion other books, which is why I still haven't bought it). 😉
I love, love, love your dress, btw! So elegant and glamorous!
Thanks so much everyone!
Betty Lou – that's so funny. I was, too!
happy belated Birthday Fleur! It looks like you all had a marvellous time!
