What has also made me more tired than I should be, is daylight savings. We lost a whole hour yesterday and it didn't help that I didn't actually get up until about 11.30am then spent the better half of the day in my pyjamas before finally getting into the shower around 2pm. David did have a nice analogy for our loss of an hour though - it's like tax, you pay it now and you'll get a refund when winter hits.
Our events went flawlessly though - the freesias are from our table centre pieces from Thursday and Saturday (yes, we recycle our flowers!). We were hoping they would last until this Saturday's event too, but we aren't holding our breath, hence why I took some home. I love them, they smell delightful and are one of my favourite flowers along with lillys.
I've been wanting to wear this outfit for a while now but couldn't find a cream waistcoat until recently. Its an outfit inspired by this outfit that Zooey wears in 500 days of summer. I love the relaxed, casual man-ish style of it. Something a bit different from the norm and so comfy in this terrible Spring weather. I can't wait for the film to come out here - I've read many reviews on other blogs and as long as the costumes stand up, then I'm fine with the story being a bit lame.
Sorry for the terrible photo - there are better ones of this outfit but I couldn't find them.The suitcase I got for $6 at our last marketday - I didn't get a shot of it, but it even has a post sticker on it from the interislander (it crosses the strait from the North Island to the South Island). Cool huh?
Also, my google reader currently tells me I have 600 posts to read. Argh! So, if I haven't visited your blog for a while, well, that's why. I hope to do some catching up next week, just let me finish this last big event :)

I like the suitcase with the little tea cup of flowers :)
I love your pants, the whole outfit is wonderful!!
The menswear look is very cute on you. I hope your weather improves!
Great outfit! Nice suitcase. Fun photos with the suitcase and the flowers!
This is a different look for you, but very cute! I love the suitcase and teacup flower too, it's such a sweet detail.
I am an old suitcase addict! I have some lovely ones from the 60s that are just the perfect shade of blue! :)
I LOVE your outfit, so chic and Katherine Hepburn <3 You look fabulous.
And I adore your suitcase - what a bargain!
I'd love to get a few battered cases and arrange them in a stack, so cute...Have a fab week honey xxx
I really like the waistcoat and trousers look as a contrast to the pretty vintage dresses. I also wear both those looks. The vintage suitcase is awesome too. I love thinking about where they have travelled.
I love that outfit... it's so cute yet cool yet androgynous (is that spelling right?).
I love all the outfits that I have seen from that movie! Awesome idea!

Hope the weather clears up!
I love this outfit. It's much different from the dresses & vintage pieces I'm used to seeing you in, but the wide pinstriped trousers and waistcoat just suit you perfectly.
i love high waisted pants...
nice vest too..
haven't see the movie yet..but it's on my list..
The silhouette of this outfit is truly amazing. I love everything about it, and you're definitely channeling Zooey. Gorgeous!!
cute vest! i haven't seen 500 days of summer even though it's been out here for awhile. maybe i should, if only to be inspired by the fashion!
You look really adorable!
Lovely pictures !

What a cute outfit - I have been wanting to wear a pair of pinstripe trousers for a while now. I loved 500 Days of Summer; the wardrobe was to die for!
Cute! Amazing fund with the suitcase too. I love it hen they have stickers on them and stories to tell!
I can't wait for our Spring to start!
You have such class! The red shoes really give the outfit a little splash of fun chic I just love.
Also, the vest is really cool.
600, oh good gosh! I get a little overwhelmed when my Google Reader hits anything over 50. You might need several cups of tea to work through all that reading ;)
I adore your Zooey inspired outfit. 500 Days of Summer is a cute flick. All of the beautiful clothing is definitely a visual treat :)
Pretty outfit, gorgeous pics!!!
I love Zooey! I'm dying to see this movie!!!
