Hi Carloyn,
     Your daughter Victoria is lovely - no wonder she was photographed.  I didn't think you were old enough to have a grown up daughter!

Carolyn, what a delightful experience, for a budding fashion designer to be photographed for British Vogue!  May her own designs be featured in the magazine some day!

She must have been so excited to be photographed...certainly can't hurt a budding designer. Maybe she'll be working for Vogue someday. She's a lovely girl and you should boast a bit about her.

I'm with Brenda, I would not have imagined you having a daughter old enough to be in London on her own! bear_grin   Victoria must have had some good fashion genes from Mum, judging by your gorgeous outfits in Sydney! bear_happy
