How Does Your Garden Grow?

August 7, 2013 · 28 Comments

Dress – Bernie Dexter, it’s on sale at the moment, get it here!
Shoes – I Love Billy

This morning I was doing the grocery shopping when I stumbled upon this amazing installation art that had been set up in the middle of the shopping center! I found this display so inspirational that I could not resist taking a few quick photos to share this brilliant installment with you. At the moment I am still renting but I am really looking forward to the day when I will be able to have my own garden. I would love to create a set up similar to this, especially something like the little vintage suitcase full of plants – isn’t it absolutely darling?

    Wow, it really does look beautiful, I want it even if I don't have a garden! πŸ˜€ You always look so so elegant and your posing is very old fashioned like from vintage photographs, I am not able to pose like that even if I try!

    Gorgeous! WHat a great idea for some interesting planters, and a good way of using up old things.

    Oh my you look breath takingly beautiful in that stunning dress! They should be paying you to stand there, I bet the plants would fly off the display like hot cakes. One day you will have your own gorgeous garden, of that there can be no doubt.

    It really is darling! There's no way I could have passed by such a charming setup without grabbing a few snaps as well. One could easily believe this backdrop had been specially made just to compliment your beautiful outfit, as the two go hand-in-hand so splendidly well. Gorgeous!!!

    Which centre is this? Would love to go see the installation. Not that I would look anywhere near as stunning as you next to it.

    This is so darling and your hair looks absolutely exquisite! I must say I adored Russia, it was so different from anywhere else I've been and so it was fascinating. How did you find it? x

    How pretty! I love plants myself, I've had lots of them in my room since I can remeber and now I'm planning to grow some rose bushes on my balcony!
    I really like your shoes, they look just perfect combined with the Bernie Dexter!

    Lots of love,
