Stakes Day

Dh and myself were at the Emirates Stakes Day this year.  I decided to try colour blocking. This is the first year I have worn a fasinator, usually I wear a hat. This fasinator is held in by a comb which was great to wear, very light.

My rules for Race wear.

1. First and most important, wear comfortable shoes.  Race day is not the best day to try out a new pair.  Wear them at least a couple of times before the day. 
2. Have the option to wear either a coat, jacket or cardigan if it is cold.
3. Wear sunscreen if it is a hot day.
4. Make sure your dress is a respectable length, not too short.  The Races is supposed to be classy!
5. Wear a hat or fasinator, it makes the outfit special. You can get fasinators for as little as $5
