Melbourne Cup: The build up!

It is Melbourne Cup tomorrow.


Historically here in Oz it is a ladies day of leisure. Women all over the country take the day off work, abandon their families and sip champagne all day leaving their husbands to look after kids and make tea!



When in Rome......!





I have been invited to a Melbourne Cup lunch at a friends house. Dress code is posh frocks, heels and hats. This sounded like a perfect opportunity to me to go shopping! I came home having bought something I never new existed... A fascinator!

I will post a photo of it tomorrow after the race but thought I would ask you to post comments guessing what it is!
So get those brain cells working overtime and then click on this button and tell me what you think!











UPDATE!

Stefs comment: "something for the bedroom!"

Good guess! I have to admit, that is what came to my mind when I first heard about it!

Josies comment: "A posh hat or feather hairpiece worn by ladies that lunch and watch races whilst sipping champagne!!!"

You are a classy bird! You obviously move in the right circles and sip the posh bubbly!!!

......And now for the photographic evidence!
