Thanks ladies, for the great reception you gave our emerging business at Ladies' Day today!  It was wonderful to hear your comments about our range of millinery.

We have a range of pieces individually crafted that are ready to match with that special outfit you are planning to wear at Young Guns this Saturday, or Cup Day on Monday.  Don't be shy, give us a call and make a time to meet this week to find the perfect match for your race day outfit.  Our email address is shown on this blog, drop us a line with your details and we'll contact you to arrange a consultation.

At today's Ladies' Day a number of ladies were selected as winners of Fashions on the Field.  What a delight for us for two of our special clients to be winners today!

Jane was First Runner Up for Best Hat or Fascinator.  Congratulations Jane, you looked gorgeous! I'm glad I could join you in a celebratory champagne....

And our special client Belinda was Winner, Best Hat or Fascinator.  We were delighted to see you win this category, Belinda.  Your ensemble looked just fabulous!

And here's a closeup of Belinda's trophy....what a thrill for us to see you win it!

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.

extra special deliveries...

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!
