30 Oct 2019

Day 27 - I call this day 'I bought a new hat'. Crossing back over the Nullarbour and it was so windy! Pictured here in a Veducci linen look dress.

Day 19 - frocking up ready to road trip. Heading off to cross the Nullabour and aiming for Tumby Bay SA.
This is an old favourite cotton dress which is a little, ahem, more fitted than it used to be. Worn with Ruby Olive earrings and an Erstwilder brooch. The brooch is hidden, just like ovarian cancer. Donate now to help me frock off cancer.

Day 21 - a little out of order. I blame my relaxed state. Yesterday we travelled from Fraser Range Station to Border Village. We ended up tenting there due to a) no cabins available and b) we didn't want to run the quarantine gauntlet. I passed through here on a family road trip 31 years ago. I'm sure this roo was holding a beer.
Wearing a Leina Broughton Grace tribal dress.
Voted best dressed traveller of the Nullabour.

Day 22 Frocktober - being on holidays it's challenging remembering the date. Just like it's challenging to detect ovarian cancer (donate now :-) ).
Today I'm in a lovely floral Veducci dress and tripping across the eastern part of the Nullabour. They are not used to seeing frocks travellers and I've received many compliments and questions about Melbourne Cup. We've made it across to SA! We are staying in a lovely small coastal town called Smoky Bay. Tomorrow who knows where we will be!

Day 20 - road tripping across the Nullabour. Photo taken on the Woodlands Granite Highway between Hyden and Norseman. Wearing a Metalicus dress and Ruby Olive jewellery. I'm also rocking the frocks by frocking on a rock as we go across. Help me frock off ovarian cancer and donate now to my page.

Day 18 was last day at work before 2 weeks holiday. For the rest of Frocktober I'll be roadtripping across Oz. Today I wore another beautiful Leina Broughton frock and Ruby Olive jewellery.
I'll enjoy my holiday more knowing I'm raising money to frock off ovarian cancer. Keep your coin coming in.

11 Oct 2019

Day 11 - today was a challenge day of The Sound of Music brought to you by Sue Meaghan. Maria wasn't much of a fashionista until she went designer crazy with the curtains. That was the inspiration for today's outfit. If you can see past the stunning curtain floral design on my dress you might see 2 brooches. One is 'I can sing a rainbow. The other is a boxer dog with a clown hat. My boxer is called Flibbertygibbet. All I needed was a wil'o'whisp. Mic dropped. And Maria is a problem solved.
