It's a Garden Party...

Put on your garden shoes... Grab your floral purse (via Neiman Marcus)...
I've got my frock (via Neiman Marcus)... to compliment my shoes and handbag...Here's some you might like to wear...To the lovely little cottage... I hear people... let's stroll until we find the party...Gorgeous flowers... J'adore all the colour...
Apparently this hummingbird is enjoying this garden too...Oooh la la... more colour in the furnishings too... I hope our host doesn't mind if we toss some of these lovely pillows on the grass so we can sit down...Ooooh the wine is ready... can't wait to see what's to eat...


Cheers to another FAB Outdoor Wednesday... be sure to visit the other particpants via Susan @ A Southern Daydreamer ... and come back tomorrow for a Thursday Tablescape adventure!!!

What a cute & funny post for OW! I'd love to wear one of those cute little frocks but I'm afraid I'm not as slender as your model and someone might mistake me for the garden.

Tossing the pillows on the ground! LOL! What ARE people supposed to do with those decorative pillows when they want to sit?!!!

Pics are on the way to you Fifi...

OH FIFI,
YOU ARE THE BEST PARTY GIVER....I LOVE THE PURSE AND FROC AND THE DRIVE TO THE COTTAGE WAS DIVINE, ESPECIALLY PARKING UNDER THAT BIG OAK TREE. THE WALK THROUGH THE WILDFLOWER GARDEN WAS JUST BEAUTIFUL. YOU REALLY DON'T THINK THE CARETAKER WILL MIND THE FEW CLIPPINGS OF FLOWERS WE TOOK TO GIVE TO PETUNIA. I SOO WISH SHE COULD HAVE BEEN THERE WHEN WE FIRST SAW THAT AMAZING COTTAGE...SHE WOULD HAVE THOUGHT SHE WAS BACK IN THE FRENCH COUNTRY SIDE.
BEAUTIFUL OUTDOOR WEDNESDAY AND TABLESCAPE FIFI.
THIS IS MY FIRST OUTDOOR WEDNESDAY.

I am still trying to decide what to wear...I may miss the party if I don't hurry up.
That house is so similar of Monet's in Giverny, which I visited in a gorgeous end of May when all the flowers were in full splendor. Unforgettable.
Should I bring baguette and pate'...?
