    Being basically a giant means that dresses that are normal length on others are a bit, uh, brief on me. So for #frocktober day 5 I paired my beautiful ruffly @made590 Vera dress (in @riflepaperco fabric!) with a pair of shorts. Today I learned that there are few early signs of ovarian cancer, and in some cases it can be asymptomatic until it advances to the later stages. Donating to the @ocrf to fund research can help.

    #frocktober Day 4: It’s super humid in Singapore so today you get a hotel room selfie. I went for thematic with my self-made palm frond Seamwork Benning (the pilot for the #awsdressv2). Today’s fact is that if ovarian cancer is detected in the earliest stages, a 90% chance of survival is possible – that’s why the @ocrf are funding projects for early detection tests. Your donation helps! Link in bio… 👗

    As much as I prefer trains, living in Sydney and having an APAC-focused job means a fair bit of airplane travel. Recent I bought my first pair of compression socks. I tell myself they are TACTICAL and not dowdy, thank you very much… 🧦

    It’s really hot in Sydney, so #frocktober Day 3 is a self-made Seamwork Moneta dress in a Hawaiian print. Today’s fact is that there is NO early detection test for ovarian cancer — a pap/cervical smear does not detect it! Donations to the OCRF help fund research into early detection. Link in bio… 👗🌴

    #frocktober Day 2 – Marimekko/Uniqlo dress. Did you know 1800+ Australians are diagnosed with ovarian cancer each year? Donate to the OCRF now to help fund research for early detection and treatment. Link in bio…

    It’s been 5 years since my last #frocktober – far too long! I’m looking forward to pulling my dresses out of storage and seeing what sparks joy (and still fits!). Today was blisteringly hot in Sydney, so I started the month off with a ruffly floral sundress. 👗

    For those who haven’t seen me do this before, Frocktober is a fundraising campaign for the @ocrf Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation. I’ve set a goal of raising $1500 (though my all-time record is $2350), and I’ll be wearing a dress every single day of the month. Link to donate is in my bio…
