So today in Australia there’s a little horse race happening called The Melbourne Cup, also known as The Race That Stops The Nation. And stop us, it does!
Woman all around the country frock up, whack a fascinator in their hair and head to a fancy pants lunch with their girlfriends. And that’s exactly what I’m doing today. Except I’ve had no time to buy anything new to wear, so I’ve had to pull together a last minute outfit from items I’ve already got sitting in my wardrobe. This is what I’ve come up with…
What To Wear To A Melbourne Cup Lunch:
Hopefully nobody will notice that I’m wearing a skirt and a jacket instead of a dress. And hopefully I won’t get laughed at too hard when I rock up to Sophie’s soccer training at 3.30pm, dressed in my geometric pencil skirt and high heels.
On the upside, if there happens to be some sort of emergency on the day, I’ll be able to co-ordinate the meeting points like a boss because nobody will miss me in that high vis jacket!
Are you going to a Melbourne Cup lunch? What will you be wearing?
