The education was one for sustainable farming). The dress code, we were told was 'gala', but I didn't have the time to make anything truly glamorous and I knew it wouldn't be required. It was a warm day, so I wore my elegant cowl-legged summer jumpsuit (here: http://petitmainsauvage.blogspot.nl/2013/08/another-crazy-jumpsuit.html). Some of the men wore suits, some of the girls nice dresses, most of the people there wore casual clothes although maybe a bit more put-together than they usually would.<br />A re-birth of dressing up would be welcome...Laurianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16602295642057814667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4823578805242157520.post-21325943375008911632014-05-05T08:25:19.377-07:002014-05-05T08:25:19.377-07:00The photos made this post great fun to read (and t...The photos made this post great fun to read (and thanks for hooking them up to pinterest to make pinning easy)!
