La Fête de la Branda - the Blue Dress


For sale in the village - a child's blue dress. In the smaller photograph, perhaps an interested buyer?

  1. It looks new to me. Must have been a one time event.

  2. Hi Jilly!

    As your title say, one of the most beautiful towns on the french riviera, but I think its also one of the most beautiful in the world - just look at the banner image! Stunning.

  6. This really is a beautiful photo! And my daughters would love a dress like that to inspire them in their princessy games. =)

  7. I thought the idea was to post ONE photo a day. The first photo is extremely strong, but the second photo unfortunately just takes away from it. I understand you may wanted to add a bit of humor or reference here, but you did the first photo a big disservice!

  8. wofff, you got a tough comment here. I'll add my bit and comment about the cropped legs for good measure, LOL

    (private joke, Jilly will understand)

    I gave up on the one-photo-only option long ago so I'm certainly not the one who's going to chastise you for adding the second one - I personally enjoy the different perspective it gives.

  9. I really enjoyed yesterday's vide grenier shot. The display is so colourful. I went to one last Sunday and bought a great dress for 5 euros, I was delighted!

  11. Kala is right. Menton looks like the place of fairy tales.

  13. Jilly, I am loving this series, Gorbio is my favourite 'perched village' and it is so good to see it at this time of year. Please continue to put 2 pics. Freda

  15. It looks like the typical stuff for a little yard sale here in the US. Videos, shoes, children's things that have been outgrown, but all set in the quaint stonework of an ancient village. Magical.
