Last week I went to the Wingatui Races to celebrate Melbourne Cup, and even though the day was cold and rainy it was so much fun. We took the train out there, had a private marquee with friends, BBQ, lots of wine, the thrill of the races and of course a chance to get pretty! My outfit choice wasn't as polished as the previous year, which I'm really glad about because the weather meant that fancy hairstyles wouldn't stand a chance! But I had heaps of fun getting ready and was proud of my modified op shop find, mainly because I knew noone else would be wearing the same thing!
As a reward for making my own dress, I treated myself to a pair of FABULOUS shoes from ASOS. They took a bit of practice to walk in them without falling over and knocking myself unconscious, but I love them so much and can't wait for the next occasion to wear them.
Here's to many more summer events with friends and pretty dresses, and hopefully lots of sun! :)
