Many moons ago when I went just for fun! My heels

Many moons ago when I went just for fun! My heels have been replaced with sneakers and I am photographing the VIPs at the Caulfield Cup instead of being photographed with them! I’m still having fun. Will you be at the Caulfield Cup this Saturday?

The only time I go to the races this casual and without millinery. It’s Caulfield Guineas and I need to be comfortable to run around all day with heavy camera equipment hanging around my neck! It’s an exhausting day but the weather was lovely and plenty of nicely dressed up race goers to photograph.

If you’re there next week at the Caulfield Cup, make sure you get a pic at one of these photo spots and follow the tagging instructions. You might win $2000 to spend at Chadstone and a styling session with @styletheoryau !

I grew sweet peas for the first time. It won’t be the last. These divine flowers are so fragrant and fluttery! They are like beautiful ruffles on dresses. So very inspiring!

An intimate celebration with my closest and deares

An intimate celebration with my closest and dearest. My 50th was just perfect. Thank you to all who came to celebrate it with me!

My dress was a Rachel Gilbert design which was a lucky find at @sacredheartopshops a few months ago! I had been wanting that dress for some time! And being a milliner, I wore my own label @velvetandtonic .

I am so grateful to have such beautiful and talented friends. Chaisuda @happyflowerdesigns created my gorgeous floral arrangements and @anita.marshall.millinery created the most beautiful cake for me!

My amazing husband worked tirelessly to make my birthday special. He was so busy taking photos that we forgot to get one together!

My heart is full. My half a century has been lived to the fullest. I’m exactly where I want to be. I believe there are so many adventures and amazing experiences still to come 💗🌸

I turned 50 over the weekend. It was celebrated with an intimate party at home.

My birthday cake was made by a special friend who happens to be a super talented milliner @anita.marshall.millinery

It was so beautiful that I have to post it on its own for you to see. It tasted amazing as well! 😜😍💗🌸

Vintage lovers rejoiced at the opportunity to don

Vintage lovers rejoiced at the opportunity to don clothes from a bygone era to cycle together through the Ballarat city centre. Check out some of the amazing bikes which were ridden in the @ballarattweedride event last weekend.

Thanks for putting together another fun event @ballarattweedride ! Ballarat is such a pretty city to visit - especially when the sun shines!

I got my new cruiser bike just in time (as my previous one didn’t match my chosen outfit!). Bikes are accessories and must compliment your outfit! 😜😆🤣

I threw as many flowers over the bikes as I could and they were a hit! People were lining up to have photos with them! 🌸🌺

I loved wearing my @aestas_the_label jumpsuit which I found in an op shop recently, topping my head off with an @anita.marshall.millinery beret with a few pompoms I threw on for a bit of fun.

Oh, and I wore heels while riding my bike for the first time ever! I’ve always admired how the European ladies did it and it wasn’t as hard as I imagined it to be!

So nice to take time out from renovations to have a bit of fun! More pics coming soon!

Red and pink was also a popular choice on Melbourn

Red and pink was also a popular choice on Melbourne Cup Day. I’ve always loved the explosion of colour after Derby Day!
