no, not the cake, but a party pouch i get to use once in a while, a useless party bag where i could only put in my apartment key, a lipstick and a few dollars and that's it. i bought it in 1993 for a ridiculous amount of money, but it went with my ruby red gown and my ruby red slippers which i wore to my brother's wedding when he finally wed my sister-in-law after his first marriage was annulled. i was the matron of horror, i mean, honor.
far cry from when the first mr. summerfield and i got married. he wanted me to wear a traditional wedding dress but i poo-pooed that idea. since he was divorced and there was no divorce in the philippines, we married at the american embassy. i chose to wear a light pink suit instead and a white wide-brimmed straw hat. oh, my goodness, i haven't thought of that day in so many years! i think we had an early dinner at the philippine plaza hotel then took a late night flight to singapore for a working honeymoon. he had to work, i had to shop.
thanks to 365 i can write down all these bits and pieces of memories that i have almost forgotten.
rim lighting is rather tricky and every time i attempt it, i could only come up with a mediocre shot. pity!
Love the lighting and the bag. Brought back memories for me too. My Nanna had a beautiful red velvet bag (hers was handmade though) and as a child I loved to play with it.
Dying with jealousy for this beautiful rim light shot! I love the effect. I have tried many times and never get a good result. This one is fabulous and a FAV
