Going wild at the Conservatory of Flowers
Over the Summer my friend Michelle (of Le Dix Sept) invited me to attend a special jungle party at the Conservatory of Flowers. We got dressed up in our flowery and fauna-ey best, and got some food, drink and danced to some groovy music.
It was right up my alley.
Gorgeous and Green in the Forest
They had a cool light installation on the actual conservatory building.
I did some perusing of the local plants and this giant healthy maidenhair fern was one of my favorites. (and check out those leopard print shoes)
Fun event at the Conservatory of Flowers !
This floral design I created has nothing to do with the event, but it was a good ending note:
