I’m a bit of a frugal frocker who loves vintage, homemade, second hand and upcycled.

My Aunt was diagnosed with ovarian cancer the size of a grapefruit, quite by accident nearly 25 years ago and we were so grateful they found it when they did.

I attended a Frocktober event last year but this is my first year fund-raising. This is such a lovely way to raise funds and a joyful celebration of life, if you get the chance to join in any event (whether you’re a frock wearer or not) please do because it’s great fun.

May the frocks be ever in your favour.

Day 25

Oh, how embarrassing; this is a repeat of the shipping-chic dress I wore on Day 9!

Still, a friend pointed out recently that grass could surely be mown in a frock and by George, she was right!

Day 22

Rockin’ the frock with a ban on the tan.
This is a dress I made years ago and still love because you can’t crush it, it looks vintage, it’s got good lines and it’s so low-maintenance it’s ridiculous.

Day 15

This was yesterday’s outfit. The dress was pretty straight forward, but I was more excited about my cute Deadpool earrings 😆

Today’s dress was a rerun of one of the past days, so you don’t need to see that again 😃

Day 14

Getting ready for dinner before hair and makeup done right before I got photobombed by my favourite lil frocker.

Dress and cardigan were seperate opshop finds but I’m cheering at how well they go together.

Day 13

Every so often, I find a garment that may not be an exact fit, but I love the fabric. This is one of them.

I asked my 3 year old if she liked it and she said she wants to put it in the bin.

Poor kid. Got no sense of style...

Day 10

This is the dress that I also wore last Saturday to conference in Melbourne but I couldn’t get any in-focus pics! So I wore it again Thursdaymorning for a local business professionals breakfast, then hid in the garden for a photo 😍

This was my dress for Day 9

Dressed for yard work, this frock is ‘shipping chic’. What a pity you can’t see my work boots in this photo 😆

Day 6 (Sunday)

POLKADOTS!! Conference has finished for the weekend, so I’m just chilling on a roof top garden in Melbourne before I go out for dinner.

Day 4

Travelling by train in vintage from Moss Vale to Melbourne for a conference on the weekend, this was another opshop find.

I ended up sitting next to another woman in adorable frock and all up a great way to travel

Day 3
Planting strawberries with my favourite little frocker

Model is wearing yard dress with last seasons rubber thongs and self styled hair.

Mini model also in yard dress but refuses to wear thongs.
No one is admitting to styling her hair.

Day 2
This was a Red Cross opshop find.

Brand new with tags attached for $7.

Seriously; who is NOT opshopping out there???

No shoes today either. I’m a rebel without a pause.

Day 1 continued...
I meant to say something about day 1 dress!

This was the dress that kicked off the Frocktober adventure for me last year. It was an opshop find at Salvos and I love the fit.
