"My Top Tips for Ladies Day" Kathryn Thomas, Horse Racing Ireland’s Fashion Ambassador
- Dressing Up - Cobalt blue and any shade of yellow are big this racing season. Floral patterns are in and juxtapose the Sci-Fi influence, which includes gold and silver metallic touches.
- Best Foot Forward - Think monochrome for shoes- gold and silver go with almost everything and shine beautifully on the turf. Don't forget the pedicure!
- On Top - A beautiful hat or headpiece is essential. Simple or elaborate, the idea here is comfort and something that can be forgotten about. Headwear that doesn't require constant adjustment is the key.
- Accessories - They inject personality, but it can be easy to overdo it. Best advice is to pick one key statement piece such as oversized jewellery which is everywhere right now or a beautiful statement bag.
- Watch the Weather - Plan in advance. Shrugs, stoles and fine-knit cardies are a great way to keep your outfit cosy.
- Ladylike - Simple and classic never goes out of fashion. Remember to be yourself and be confident in what you're wearing!
