The Great Gatsby Picnic at the Lakefront Lavender Farms

OHMYGOSH!!!  What a wonderful day!  This event was entirely too much fun!  The weather was wonderful.  The dresses were fabulous.  The food was delicious. The company was delightful!  I can't wait for this event to roll around next year!  Mama was so upset that she couldn't attend.  After she saw my pictures she informed me most emphatically that "Next year, I AM GOING!!!"  I just cannot say enough how delightful this day was!!

Josie Smith and Emily Smith in fabulous Robe de Style dresses that were made popular by Jeanne Lanvin in the 1920s.  Josie did a fabulous job making them!

Emily, me, Josie, Tamara Tingler, and Tammy Eliasen...Tamara was in a lovely green sheath dress and Tammy made her beautiful frock using the one hour dress pattern from etsy....

One Hour Dress on Etsy

I am not 100% sure that this is the one she used, but there are several to choose from off of etsy.  She said it was so incredibly simple!  It turned out fabulously!  I am going to be acquiring this one!

Enjoying a picnic lunch!

Our lunch.  mmmmm....it was super nummy!

A group of ladies and their fine gentlemen brought their lovely wicker furniture, cigar humidor, portable Victrola, and a great canopy!   Their area was so very elegant and just sang of an era gone by!  This lovely lady was named Carole!

I had Josie take this photo to show my seamed stockings!  This outfit was so very fun to wear!!!  So cool and non constricting like my Victorian outfits!!!  *sigh*

Here is another view of the wonderful seating area!  Notice the potted plant in a wicker plant stand and the camera!!  AWESOME!!!!

One of the best parts of this event were the vintage cars!  We had the pleasure of sitting in the rumble seat of this one!!  So much fun!!!

I believe this was a model A Ford Pick-up!!  Wonderful!
