The wait is finally over! From this day forward I will be sharing with you photos we took on Labour Day weekend at the Mansion Hotel & Spa at Werribee Park. You may recall I gave you a sneak peek [HERE]. It was the first long weekend since Christmas I got to spend with hubby so we made full use of our time, creating a total of 8 outfits in a mere few hours. And what better place to spend a relaxing day of shooting in exquisite locations, being massaged, wined and dined than the Mansion at Werribee Park?
The mansion was build 125 years ago by the Chirnside family. It was the largest private residence ever built in Victoria! The previous owners of the 60-room residence wanted to create an English estate. And that they did. A boutique retreat only 30 minutes away from the Melbourne CBD, the hotel has received numerous awards including Best Deluxe Accommodation at the prestigious 2004 Victorian Tourism Awards 3 years in a row!
2 weddings were being held on the same night as our stay, turns out the Mansion can host 4 weddings on a single night. Well it is situated on 10 acres! It’s a stunning getaway if you like the country side but not long car rides. This is the first series we photographed. Being 37 degrees, it was too hot to wear a scarf as a scarf but obviously fine to don a pair of wool trousers.
Bulgari Shades / Karen Millen shirt (last seen HERE) / Vintage Scarf / Jean Paul Gaultier pants from Paris 99 / Edenborough Evans ring / Tom Gunn shoes
If I look rather relaxed despite the heat, it’s because I’d just had a full body massage at the Spa. Being expertly kneaded in tranquil surrounds is pure bliss. If you fancy a retreat this month. The Mansion Hotel & Spa at Werribee Park is offering my readers a special rate of $199 Bed & Breakfast in a Heritage Room for Friday nights up until the end of April. The offer is usually $350. To book, just give the Mansion a call on +61 3 9731 4000 or email reservations@mansionhotel.com.au and just mention my name :)
What will you do to unwind at the hotel? Explore the picturesque gardens? Play a game of tennis, pool or go for a swim, a massage or a facial treatment at the exclusive Lancôme Beauty Studio? Experience fine dining at Joseph or stay in your soft sheets and listen to the birds sing you lullabies all weekend long?
Wishing you and your loved ones a blessed Easter! What are you up to this long weekend?

You look so elegant. Kisses.
oooh next time I’m in Melbourne it sounds like I need to stay there! What beautiful surroundings too :)
Really like your pants – when I read pants in your post I was confused at first until I continued scrolling. The extra fabric is very different, it does make it look like a maxi skirt! Almost like long culottes (if I spelled that right!)
definitely! I’ll send you details next time you’re down here ;D I love the pants too- so unusual hence why I bought them :D
You look gorgeous.
great look! love the colors :)
