Striped Pyjamas and the Hawke's Bay Club (aka Thur night)

Aah what a busy few weeks since Deco! Gently laundering and pressing my precious vintage garments and relaxing after the rush and bustle of a glorious weekend.

The weekend started for us on Thursday night with drinkies at the magnificent Hawke's Bay Club for Leisurely lounging event. We were all decked out in our best lounging pyjamas, smoking jackets and boudoir caps for a lovely laid-back event in a superb setting.

The Hawke's Bay Club was established in 1863 and is the only remaining club to still retain a Gentlemen only membership. The Billiards room is the only to remain of the original Club building, it was demolished in 1904 and rebuilt as it stands today in 1906.

I fell in love with the shaded green stripes and the lovely monogram detail, unfortunately not my own, but that would be too uncanny ;)
