It’s Melbourne Cup weekend
and I’ve had five days off work – Yay!
Only in Australia would the horse ‘race that stops the nation’
be cause for a day, or two, depending on where you work, off work.
The Melbourne Cup Carnival 2015
is spread over four days, each day has a different style and feel.
Getting raceday ready takes effort,
as there is strict racewear etiquette.
Think sophistication, think classy
think Wren in a blind panic!

which is all about the timeless elegance of black & white.
Well sort of…
Melbourne Cup is all about striking colours and a statement hat

I’m not sure what type of a statement I am going to make…
I think I’m going to look a bit like the dolly-mixture sweets!
I’ve already been told by Daughter No 1 to ditch the pink shoes
There’s a horse running called Max Dynamite
maybe I should back him.
Shame there’s not a horse running called
‘Last minute shopper’ or ‘wearing it all’!
Counting down to Melbourne Cup tomorrow
Can’t wait!
