Stevie will be PRESENTING on Nov 5th
 

only the pertinent info here ;)

Legendary rock singer Stevie Nicks has accepted an invitation from McManus to be a VIP guest in his marquee on Emirates Melbourne Cup Day (Tuesday 1 November). The Fleetwood Mac front woman said this week, "I am so honored to be a part of something with such cultural value as the Melbourne Cup and the whole week of the racing carnival. I know it's a very special time for the city and I'm thrilled to be able to experience it all first hand.

"Besides the great racing, I've been told the fashion is wonderful and so my designer Margi Kent and I are having so much fun planning my outfits. I know it's going to be a fantastic week."

Early on in her career, Nicks developed her own distinct sense of style. Nicks originally met her designer Margi Kent in the first year of Fleetwood Mac. Working together throughout their careers, Kent is designing outfits and matching millinery for Nicks' appearance at this year's Carnival.

On Emirates Stakes Day (Saturday 5 November) the Fleetwood Mac front woman will also have a race named in her honour - the Stevie Nicks Plate, Race 7 on Emirates Stakes Day. Nicks will make the post-race presentation to the connections of the winning horse at 3.45pm.

I think i need a lie down.............Stevie in a hat that ISN'T Dickensian :eek: **** man this is going to rock :laugh: :blob2:

I think I may just die.

PUHLEASE put her in something sexy as
I'm very afraid of something scary rearing its head :shocked:
the weather is probably going to suck ass but I'll be praying to the Rhiannon gods for some sun :nod:

Now, kids, let's settle down. Remember all of her new outfits & capes & hats that were supposed to appear in Vegas? :shrug: I know, I know, Debbie Downer. I'm just not going to get my hopes up to high.

Ummmm - the B&B coat/cape - if she hauls out in something fab like that I will be speechless :cool:

Stevie in ANY cape will be HIGHLY acceptable and guarantee her a win by the fashion squad [ie me] :thumbsup:

You're right, of course. I was referring more to others that were complaining about her lack of wardrobe changes. I personally had no issues - she literally took my breath away when she walked out in it that first night for B&tB in Vegas.

did you notice it looked very similar to the red one she wore in the photshoot for Bazaar?

OMG! ::breathes slowly in and out::

New clothes! :thumbsup:

<-- fashion junkie.

Man I hope LOTS of pictures are taken!!!!

Definitely one ofd the most beautiful outfits I have ever seen her wear.

I would have liked it if It didnt have that huge ugly collar.

Yup - a whole new wardrobe of layered black chiffon.... can't wait.....

LOL:laugh: :laugh:

I want the Enchanted Tour's Edge Cape! :stomps feet: :throws a fit:

I kind of felt that way about the collar, too. But she is so fabulous it didn't matter.

this is just so freaking fabulous!!!~

Yes. Wasn't that a Tyler - or was that her Stormy Weather dress?

I totally agree there should have been MORE :laugh:

A girl can dream right?

i KNOWWWWW finally something/someone giving Stevie some MASSIVE exposure and appreciation that she deserves :xoxo: :D :thumbsup:

The theme is Morracan, so the possibilities are driving me crazy. I hope something fabulous and stunning is made for her to wear. Imagine all the photo ops that will come out of this. :D

This has to be one of the most non airy fairy things Stevie has ever said.
Very Classy.

Yeah the collar wouldn't have been my choice for her, but she looked so stunning it was easy to overlook. I loved her swept up hair with the outfit, very classy. I can't wait to see the pics from the Australia, since Stevie is sure to look amazing !!

This would be a perfect time for her to wear the top hat with a big feather...and a nice gown

Chris

if she went all out in a 3 piece suit and her top hat that would rock........hard

Stevie non airy fairy be nice now she's obviously making a very big effort to come over here and share in our stupid horse races :lol: what other country needs to give people a reason to get smashed at work and promote gambling :laugh:

I guess what I meant is that there were no "Ahh's, Umm's, or Like's or Ya know's" in her statement. Very classy and very business like. Let's face it, Stevie is like her very own company. And she is the big boss at the top and has employees, etc... Could you just imagine Stevie in a business meeting? Kind of got a gimpse of it during the DR doc. Wish I could invest in Stevie, Inc. That would be a cool thing. :cool: if you could invest in celebs.

I am so looking forward to see what transpires at the races and what is learned about the upcoming Aus. tour and the DVD hopefully. This is all gonna rock :thumbsup:

I know! She's been such an underground sorta gal up till now! :rolleyes:

I think she ought to do what all the other Hollywood stars are doing: jeans, T-shirt, & a three-day stubble

yah I know what you meant. but i don't class that as airy fairy. She just talks like a regular person i say 'like' a lot....probably too much and i'm not even from California :lol:

Can u IMAGINE Stevie in a business meeting WOAH.....laid back on the couch drinking coffee. no shoes on. dogs all over the place :D At least she was very aware of everything that should have been taken into consideration and it wasn't JUST about the money or going against what Lindsey or the other band members wanted.

I'll invest :)

oh ****
i dont wanna see Stevie with stubble :lol:

stevie
 

Ab./.. and guess what guys... im going to be there on that november !! in her tent.... :]

Sorry im not meaing to be nasty. Just very excited if it all comes through! I cannto believe it, i really did not believe i would see fmac of any form back in aus again! And now this... too much. All i know is that is in 9.30am Sunday 30th Octboer and she is currently in a hotel 20k's from me! me! woohoo.

Sandymac: Emirates tent for cup day is moroccan theme i think, not the whole event just their tent.

Yesterday i went shopping to try and find a dress... no luck, looking again today and tomorrow. Then after the dress comes the shop for hat and shoes/accessories.

Yippee

Jayne~~

I am soooo happy, excited , and a little (OKAY A LOT :laugh: ) jealous!!!!

Have a GREAT time - you deserve it!

Janis...if you meet her...can you do me a favor...ask her if she will do sara again.

Color me SOOOOOOOOOOO jealous!!! Glad it's you, but I wish it were ME!!!:nod:

Once upon a time, you could invest in Stevie. Modern Records stock used to be traded on the Toronto stock exchange. I have this booklet promoting investment in it. Stevie was awesome in the Destiny Rules DVD, talking about the Music Business and why they shouldn't do a double album. I loved that she sounded so smart and common sensical, as opposed to LB.

When I read that, my first thought was, "Seriously, who wrote that statement???"
