fashions at ladies' day

We were thrilled to have some of our pieces worn by some lovely ladies at Ladies' Day today.  Here's Kathryn in a flattering crinoline piece, looking relaxed and stylish.

Judith's piece is quite a statement, with two tones of finely woven straw that complement her dress perfectly.  We are looking forward to seeing more pieces over the coming weeks!

ladies' day at the alice springs turf club

We are home from Ladies Day and what an amazing day it was!  Congratulations to Meg and the team for the beautiful venue - it was quite incredible to see a venue of this standard in Alice Springs.  Of course the food was delicious, congratulations to the team at the Crowne Plaza.  Three flavoursome and well presented courses of the highest quality cuisine.  And to top that off, we were enthralled with the entertainment, too many wonderful performers to mention here, but please visit the Turf Club site to find out more.

It's always exciting to receive a parcel in the post! Thanks to our wonderful suppliers of gorgeous new and vintage ribbons, trims and lace, and lovely feathers, flowers and all things delightful, three special packages have arrived this week.  Can't wait to unwrap them!
