There are certain books or films or songs that really stick in your mind long after you read, watch or hear them for the very first time & The Man from Snowy River is one of those for me, so I was (of course) absolutely delighted to attend a recent live musical performance of the beloved Australian tale with some dear friends. For the occasion, I donned this stunning black & gold spotted jacquard maxi dress with stretch panel detailing from designer label Sacha Drake, styled up with a sumptuous vintage silk wrap in alternating shades of gold & olive depending on where the sun/light hits that I picked up from a little hole-in-the-wall vintage shop at Montville many years ago, a pair of black matte leather pointy-toed booties from Wittner for a modicum of height & a natural woven straw handbag with black leather clasp from Witchery to carry all the essentials. When it came to jewellery, I kept it simple but statement-making with a stack of gold & onyx Alex & Ani bangles with charms for that touch of daytime shine.
