One thing I admire with the Horse Racing fashion scene is that generally it is unacceptable to have a skimpy dress and everything hanging out everywhere- generally there’s an unwritten rule to keep it classy with the Spring feel.
So this year I thought I would go really Spring feel, think florals and nudes and that is the look I was going for.
With the help from some amazing brands and contacts my look was made possible, and I felt incredible.
Lets start with the dress-
Dress- Forever New $129
This is the first time I have worn a flow type dress to the races. The under part was white fitted and then had the V cut floral chiffon that draped low at the back. So comfortable and easy to move around in, which is a must for a day at the races.

Katya Komarova Headpiece - $150
This is one of the pieces that tied together my entire outfit of the day together in my opinion. So it is a leather band with lace detailing and I like to think of it as my Spring crown- Queen Elsa of Spring eat your heart out.

Clutch- Charlie Middleton 91 in nude $99
Made locally in Sydney this soft to touch small clutch was a dream to carry around. I have never been a massive clutch person, but since receiving this clutch I have actually ditched the handbag and this is all I carry around with me. I wish I could put a material sample here for you to touch as words will not and cannot do this piece any justice.
One thing I love is that when buying a Charlie Middleton piece your supporting local business and staying ashore.

Sunnies-Designer look sunnies without the designer price tag, which suits me perfectly as I am forever loosing and misplacing my sunnies. My favorite were the Bella Blue sunnies, which you can find here.

Accessories - Lovisa
I am a firm believer in affordable accessories as I almost never wear the same piece twice unless the outfit suits. So the morning before the Caulfield Guineas I decided to go down to Lovisa and pick up a few bits and pieces, which included a necklace and a bracelet.

Heels- Betts Squad Nude $80
These are current season and I wanted a pair I could wear more then once, otherwise it is just a waste. Things like a dress you really cant wear more then once, like if you have been seen/photographed in a dress I feel it rules it out for future events.
I love these as you can dress them up or down and they were incredibly comfortable and didn’t even think to take them off once.
