Frocktober Week 4: Hot and cold

It's been super Summer and cold this week, but luckily it looks like I have enough dresses to cope with these daily fluctuations to complete Frocktober in style! 
I've been busy helping to style a guy-friend's own Frocktober Challenge and touring our gorgeous city with my Ma and Pa.
So, now we only have a few more days until the end of October, it's time to make your donations before it's too late. Please remember that your donations go to Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation to help to find an early detection test for this killer disease. Your support means a great deal to me, and much needed funds for OCRF and the great Frocktober efforts currently sweeping the country!

Frocktober: Week 3

Frocktober continues this week with a couple of new frocks, lots of colour, exhaustion and gorgeous Canberra sunshine...


In the home stretch now with 10 more days left of my Focktober Challenge (to wear a different frock every day this month to raise sponsorship for Ovarian Cancer research). 

My jeans are pining for me, badly, so please, if ever encouragement was needed it's NOW!!! Please make your donation and lets see if we can smash my fundraising goal!

Frocktober Week 2:

Another set of seven days in my Frocktober Challenge, slightly belated...
I have pledged to pack my jeans away for a whole month and only wear frocks for the entirety of October - even better, I'll have a different one for each of the 31 days!

 

So, I'm hoping for your sponsorship to raise much needed funds for the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation who are aiming to find an early detection test for this deadly disease, so that sufferers can be treated before it's too late.

As usual, I'll be sharing my frocks daily for the rest of October as I style it up, so check in regularly at Ninaribena Makes, and visit my Everyday Hero page to sponsor the action! As little as $10 can help!

Enjoy the show, and please be generous! xx

Froctober Day 1: Handmade Market

Wow, another BIG day at Canberra's  Handmade Market, and loads of extremely chuffed T&J customers taking their fabulous new goodies home! And a very exhausted me!

So, it was also the first day of Frocktober, and I needed a utility dress and flat shoes for lugging big chairs around today - not to mention that it was also rather chilly! So here I am with my little warm jacket and a few pops of colour, flanked in the background, by the first 2 chairs to leave the stables!


 Above, you may spot a couple of super new items I snuck in at the last minute, an adorable 'Aussie' vintage teatowel stool with the loveliest legs in all the land, and some huge timber framed lounge chairs (and I still have the stripe one if you're keen!).

 
A (awfully glarey) shot of my Tango & James stall before the many wonderful customers arrived.
If you missed out on the Market today, or were considering one of these pieces for your home, make sure you check out the Furniture Gallery page to see exactly what is still available.

Time to unwind and relax for the rest of the loooong weekend, xx
