Earlier this month I was invited to Keebles Country House, a gorgeous bed and breakfast located in the township of Clunes. The event was to mark the beginning of the Christmas season and to see the house decorated in all its Christmas glory. Keebles is a stunning property with beautiful gardens that play host to weddings, outdoor opera, and local fairs and markets. Whilst it’s a pleasure to visit this house any time of year, Christmas is my favourite. The interior décor is warm and ...

I know, what is it with me and racing events? This event I had more barriers than usual to an outfit. Firstly, having recently had a baby I still don’t fit into my non-maternity wardrobe.
