ON TREND From white and brights to menswear, your guide to the must-have trends of the new season.
...to the Spring/Summer edition of Eastland magazine! Spring in Melbourne means one thing – racing season – and that means style savvy ladies and gents are on the hunt for fashion-forward racewear that will put them ahead of the pack at the track. This season, the key trends in racewear are all about putting a modern spin on classic style. Girls – think bold florals, sophisticated monochrome, clashing shades of tangerine and fuchsia, graphic prints and cool blue hues. And guys – update your traditional suit-and-tie combo with sharply tailored shorts and unexpected pops of vibrant colour. Put your summer look together at Eastland and you could be lucky enough to win a VIP Race Day experience – see opposite page for details. This issue’s stunning fashion pages were photographed at the historic Gulf Station Homestead, which was farmed for almost a century by several generations of the trailblazing Bell family. This beautiful backdrop is yet another one of the sites we’re lucky to have on our doorstep here in the East. Enjoy the issue and the racing season. We hope you back a winner!

BEHIND THE SCENES
Explore the history of Gulf Station, the backdrop for this season's fashion shoot
Behind the scenes at Gulf Station Left: William Bell Senior Right: Agnes Muncaster Bell
With the money earned from catching rabbits, farm boy Percy Goss was able to buy his first car.
efore there were planes to shorten the long journey, it took months to sail from Scotland to Australia. That’s what pioneers William and Agnes Bell (and their five children) endured in 1839 – all for a new start in Australia. Luckily, the Bell family struck gold. The family leased their 25,000-acre property, known as the Gulf, in the 1840s and, when gold was discovered nearby in the 1850s, the Bells realised they could make a living feeding the thousands that flocked to the goldfields. Their homestead, Gulf Station, was built during this period. Today, Gulf Station is one of Australia’s oldest farms. A National Trust property that was occupied by the Bell family for nearly 100 years – and the location for the stunning fashion shoot featured in this issue of Eastland magazine. The Bells' youngest son, William Jr, and his wife, Mary Ann, bought
the property in 1871. With their eight children, they farmed cattle and horses until William passed away six years later, aged just 45. Mary Ann remained the matriarch of the property for the next 39 years and the family, known for their unfailing work ethic and generous hospitality, went on to breed prizewinning horses, pigs, cattle and sheep. In 1976, Gulf Station was acquired by the State Government for the people of Victoria, with management vested in the National Trust who restored the buildings and opened the station up to the public. Gulf Station is open to the public on the second Thursday of each month (from 10am; last tour at 2pm). Group tours are available at other times. Go to www.gulfstation. com.au for more information.

Discover the fascinating origins of perfume, including which historical figures wore fragrance, and learn the difference between niche and mass perfume. You’ll also learn about the ‘fragrance families’ and discover how to select your perfect scent. SAMANTHA’S TOP TIPS
∙ ∙ ∙
A work fragrance should be subtle, while a scent worn for a lover should be intoxicating and sensual. When you find a fragrance you love, buy a matching body creme or bath oil to ensure the scent lasts longer. Perfume reflects who you are. Build a ‘wardrobe’ with different choices for different occasions.

“I never wear sky-high heels ‒ I can't walk in them! We may want comfort, but race day is the day to work it.”
“An elegant shoulder bag is the way to go ‒ I like to keep my hands free ‒ but I generally prefer a clutch.”
“Keep it simple with stunning earrings, a fantastic necklace or great cuff – but not all together.”
“I stay away from bold, bright lipsticks. Stick to a really good lip stain and keep glossing with Napoleon gloss.”
“Apply it under your make up. If I’m wearing a sleeveless dress, I cover up before I leave the house.”

BEAUTY
TRACKSIDE GLAMOUR
It’s not all about fashion on race day – the best hair and beauty buys are a must
Race day is a great opportunity for dramatic makeup. Ensure all eyes are on you by balancing a strong lip colour with defined brows. First, perfect a dewy complexion with a long-lasting-but-luminous foundation. Next, define brows with a brow pencil or wax, then sweep soft brown eyeshadow over eyelids and along the lower lash line. Mascara and long-wearing matte lipstick in brick red, red wine and hot pink hues will complete the look.
MAKEUP
While fascinators and eye-catching hats are firm favourites at the track, there are many options for spring racing hair accessories. Consider the look of your outfit before selecting your topper. If your look is soft, feminine and traditional, go for a pretty spray of fake flowers pinned to your head (real blooms look lovely, but they’ll wilt). If you’re sporting a more free-spirited look, a knotted headscarf will create a strong impact. And if your outfit is more tailored, look for a feminine chapeau that can be pinned just so.

After washing, divide hair into sections, spray with styling lotion and blow dry each straight with a round brush. Next, curl sections using a large-barrelled curling iron, holding each curl in place with a roller, and leave to cool. Once hair has cooled, remove rollers, run a wide-tooth comb through the hair and finish with a spritz of hairspray.

Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until it changes colour from white to transparent. Stir in 12 large tablespoons of the sofrito. Cook for 3 minutes. Add seafood (except tuna) and stock. Season. Cook over medium heat, without stirring, for about 20 minutes or until stock has been absorbed and rice is almost tender. Reduce heat to low, add tuna and cook for a further 3 minutes to form a nice ‘soccarrada’ or crust on the bottom. If hob plate is not as big as pan, move pan around a little during cooking to ensure even heat. Add peas and remove from heat. Stand for 5 minutes. Squeeze over lemons and limes and season. Garnish with parsley. Serve paella warm, not steaming hot.
