The race that stops a nation//lunch dates

It's been a while. I know. My regular readers will have come to expect these random lapses from me from time to time. Life gets in the way sometimes. I apologise and promise to try and be better, but we all know it's a lie. Sorry, not sorry haha.

Yesterday was Melbourne Cup day and while I didn't actually make it to the races, I still made the effort to dress up (in two separate outfits - one day time and one night time) just for shits and giggles. Yes, I'm a little bit sad like that. I prefer to think of it as fabulous.This is the day time outfit. I wore it to pick up lunch at Oporto and study at a friend's lol. Didn't manage to snap the night outfit which consisted of a pink dress, black fascinator, belt and shoes that I wore to Marquee.

 Dress: Ally; Belt: Just Jeans; Hat & Necklace: Forever New; Shoes: Imagination; Bag: Vintage; Cuff: Lovisa; Ring & Hair Pins: Colette by Colette Hayman. 

And this was today - a lunch date with the boy. Great food, amazing company, showing some skin & avoiding study on a perfect, sunny day. This is living.
