Spring Racing is well and truly upon us and if you’re planning to hit the track, now is the perfect time to start shopping for your outfit!
Finally we can ditch the ‘All black everything’ and have a play around with some more vibrant colours! I have selected a few of my favourite looks for the season, without having to break the bank!
When planning an outfit for the races its important to follow a few simple rules!
Don’t wear a dress that you would wear to a nightclub. Leave the short skirts and sequins for the evening. I’m also not a huge fan of showing your mid drift at the races. After all, it is a day to dress like a lady….which doesn’t mean you can’t make a fashion statement! If opting for a low cut neckline, try a longer hem line.
If you choose a statement piece of millinery, keep the dress a little more simple! Its all about balance.
I’ve also included a few of my favourite footwear trends for this spring! And this year, its all about the lace up heels!!
Just a tip, make sure you ‘break-in’ your heels before you hit the track and have some emergency bandaids and party feet in your handbag!
When doing your make up, less is more! Remember its a day time event so a nice brown/bronze smokey eye is the darkest to go. Team this with a few individual fake eye lashes (not the strip fake lashes) and a glossy lip. If you want to try a bold lip, make sure you tone down the colours on your eyes. A winged eye liner with plenty of mascara and a pop of colour on the lip is a great look.
In terms of hair styles, I prefer to wear my hair up for the races. You never know how windy it will be. This season its all about slick and straight, so get those GHD’s out!
Now that I’ve let you in on my fashion tips, who’s got some tips for on the track?!
Giddy up and don’t forget the #1 accessory, your form guide!!
