Spring Racing Style At Melbourne’s GPO
Last Sunday Lady Melbourne, Fashion Hayley and I met with our Spring Racing Style competition winners at Melbourne’s GPO where we shopped up a storm, each winner given a $500 GPO voucher to create their ultimate Spring Racing look.
My beautiful winner – Nadia – has very parallel tastes to my own so we were ideal shopping partners. We also discovered many common interests outside of fashion which bodes well for lots of shared adventures to come.
We decided on a stunning ruffled harness from Sass&Bide and a dramatic maxi dress from Manning Cartell. She looked like a gothic warrior goddess – I was so proud I almost teared up a little!
The best Australian fashion and wonderful company – definitely my preferred way to spend a Sunday afternoon in Melbourne.

I’ve been reading conflicting reviews on the sizing though so I hope they fit! I wear a size 6 normally and that’s exactly what I got. Hope it’ll be okay! Is the upper part narrow at all?
Anyway, you look fabulous!

I also love that you’re from Australia and the unique and interesting perspective that you bring. I will be following your blog and look forward to all your future happenings!
Miss Ghost shared this comment on Oct 23 09 at 6:23 PM@ Carmela – Thank you! I ordered my normal size and found the 99 Zips to be about a half size too big, but I put an innersole in and they are much better. I also find them to be generous around the ankle but I have very narrow heels and ankles so most shoes are too big around this area. My feet are inclined to try and slip out of them a little but the innersole has helped a lot. Good luck! x
@ Die Konigin Der Herzen – Thank you so much! x
