Today was beautiful in every way. Skwerlie, Mirai and I went to the Queen’s Gardens dressed in our very finest and there met our two friendly photographers, Eugene and Wilson. Mirai was wearing her beautiful handmade classic lolita skirt, Skwerlie looked lovely in her new skirt and hat from Candy Violet and I finally had the opportunity to wear my Marie Antoinette OP!

The gardens are quite lovely, full of little flower beds in pretty patterns, ornamental lakes covered in floating lily pads and crossed by dainty little bridges, gazebos, benches, lamp posts and graceful weeping willows. We could not have asked for a better location.

For lunch we had a little picnic on the lawn, cheeses and dips, cut vegetables, olives and crackers with blackcurrant cordial to wash it down. It was quite refreshing and prepared us for yet another round of photo taking, this time we took the images ourselves, which meant taking turns as the photographer, although for one shot we wedged the camera in a tree and put it on self timer, I’m quite pleased with the results! Please enjoy today’s photoshoot in my gallery.
