Melbourne Cup

For Melbourne Cup we had an impromptu lunch at our house. I had the attitude, "it's my party and I dress as I want to". So if that meant that I wore my $450 hat with my jeans and terri toweling slippers, then so be it. I found it interesting that one of the fashion of the fields winner should wear a bird cage on her head to keep her stuffed bird from flying away. I think that a live bird on a real hat is much more creative.
