A whooping good time


A day at the polo instantly evokes memories of Julia Roberts 'whooping' from the sidelines in her super styley polka dot outfit of Pretty Woman fame.
But what does a day at Polo in the City Adelaide style involve?


Hmm, no royals unfortunately.

But a bit of this (hello pearls!) . . .

And copious amounts of this (well - I was stoked with my one glass of French amongst far too many Bird in Hand pinot noirs)


To end up like this!
(I am so glad I had the sense to take a photo before our 'free-flowing' drinks caught up with us! Am still trying to get used to the new fringe)
We had a brilliant day on the sidelines and while no 'whooping' was involved, we were enthusiastic participants in the divet stomping and after party shenanigans at a nearby watering hole.
Trouble with a capital T.
But oh so fun.

Thank you for the lovely comments - SUCH a fun day. It's a shame my camera is broken and I'm having to rely on my phone at the moment, hopefully I'll emerge the other side of Christmas with a new camera in tow!

Yes, new haircut. Washed it this morning for the first time since the gorgeous Jason worked his magic - let's just say it's not looking as slick today!

Kimbo - Ashes are calling me - I've even taken two days off work. Ex.Cited. Completely. But we need to debrief Manila Vanilla ASAP.

And Lill! Will try and get a proper photo of dress at the cricket - heaven forbid, I'm recycling the same outfit two weekends in a row! Matches Pimms perfectly, I had to give it a second showing!

I would love to attend one of those. I did always think that dress was quite nice.
Really flattering on Julia.
