My favourite outfit: Miss Anna Jane

We like you and want to know what you’re wearing. Send us a pic and a description please!

Here’s me standing on a chair posing in my living room. I am wearing a vintage dress gifted to me in Brisbane by a wonderful friend named Michelle Younghusband. I love it so much because I don’t own anything that fits me quite as well. It’s cotton, and lined with one underskirt for a bit of flamenco feeling. I’m wearing it with Amie McCarron’s Parisienne black beaded choker necklace, and my favourite pair of brown leather boots. These were a major splurge for me, but I have never regretted the purchase – they are flat for walking the hills of Wellington (and climbing the odd tree), made in Italy, and brought from a fancypants boot shop in New Farm, Brisbane (my old posh hood). Red velvet curtains complete with broken curtain rail, low lit lamps and half-full wine glass complete the look.

    beautiful! it’s the kind of dress you can dress-down or dress-up. I love the necklace too.

    Thanks Amy! I wanted to ask what you actually sell at craft markets – and when is your next one??

    Also, should have mentioned I *borrowed* the necklace – sadly it is not mine.

    I do own a new black feather choker Eva Strangelove danced in, will get photos of someone wearing it :D

    I crochet mainly. and sell some of my mum’s stuff. It’s fun though, and I’m not sure when the next market will be. The markets I go to are Craft2.0, The Knack, and Pataka. They’re awesome.
