Super Sunday - Trelise Cooper and Little Red Riding Hood...

New Zealand designer Trelise Cooper is one of the first designers that I ever really started following.  Now I'm not much of a designer freak, I'm pretty sure Vintage is my favourite designer and more my price range too... However,  the first designer dress I ever added to my wardrobe was by Trelise... and even though it was last season when I brought it (three seasons ago), I still love it and wear it all the time.

 

I have two Trelise dresses, today's Super Sunday Post features the second of the two which I snagged for a bargain $67 from Trade Me.  I love the colour, the polka dots, the fall, the flow, the length, the fabric, the softness and femininity of this dress...

(NB: in New Zealand almost every elder-woman in your family is a Nanny to you, Nanny Angie, is a cousin to my father)

A few weeks ago, my dear Nanny Angie, gave me a beautiful surprise when I went to visit her... she asked if I had a coat for the wedding I was going to in Melbourne and I said 'no', I hadn't even thought about needing a coat in Aussie, she proceeded to pull out of her wardrobe the most beautiful red cape and gave it to me, complete with the gold and green stone flower brooch... I was soooo excited and soooo thankful... It was grey and raining in Melbourne so I was glad to be able to wear it to the wedding... I absolutely love it!!!  I wore it today also...

 

 

It's been a wee while since I've done a Super Sunday curvy style post but I hope this has made up for it... and in case you were interested my shoes are from Poetic Licence, I just love the red velvet ribbon.

 

The green suitcases featured in this post is part of my Vintage Love post coming up later this week... hope you can come back for a little look.  Until then, keep your hot water bottle close...
