Turquoised Ikat





Ikat dress from the Glebe markets, silver and turquoise jewellery from India, Boots: Wittner



Anyone who knows me knows that I love my tie-dye, block print, shibori, ikat and ethnic fabrics therefore it comes as no surprise that I love this dress that combines crochet detailing with Ikat in a blue colour that makes me feel like I am dressed in lapis lazuli. And I woke up to this glorious weather on market saturday, the smiley in the sky echoes my sentiments completely.

I am off to the markets and might do a post on people watching and market trawling later today. Happy Saturday all.
