After all of the pomp, circumstance & history of Melbourne Cup Day, Oaks Day (the traditional day for ladies to get all dressed up in girly confections) is a little more frivolous & fun. This slightly more relaxed feeling is clearly shown in my choice of ensemble, styled up around this sweet bumble bee printed jacquard mini dress that I picked up from Alannah Hill that's giving me serious Jean-Shrimpton-in-the-1960s vibes. When it came to accessories, I eschewed the expected gold shoes & bag; instead opting for a pair of white leather pointy-toed heeled mules from Country Road & matching cane handbag from Renee Loves Frances to carry all the essentials. Layering up on sparkly bangles in mixed metals (gold & silver) added a touch of daytime shine & elevated the look while the oversized floral & mesh headpiece from Forever New picked up on the botanical theme.
