OOTD: #GeorgeousRacewear





Outfit:
Black cut out neck dress: c/o George At Asda
Black duster coat: Topshop (similar)
Nude embellished block heeled sandals: c/o George At Asda
Slogan print cross body bag: c/o George At Asda

George at Asda got in touch to see if I wanted create an outfit fit for the races from their range of dresses. This year is actually the first time in about five years that I've not got a day out at the races planned. Usually I pop along to either Newmarket or Ascot. I absolutely love the whole atmosphere of horse racing, the chance to buy a fancy new dress and of course the pimms drinking!

I've never think you can go wrong with a LBD and I was swayed by the pretty cut outs. It helps to make it a little more interesting which is always a marvellous thing! I like to inject a little fun into my outfit so went for this cool slogan bag to stop things from looking stuffy. Slogan bags seem to be all the range recently and this one was such a bargain at £8. At some races you won't be allowed certain areas of the racecourse if you have your shoulders on show so I've throw on a smart duster jacket to help bring the outfit together. Finally I always think heels are a must at the races - keep a pair of flip flops in your bag for the end of the day. These nude sandals are the perfect height for being on your feet the whole day. Trust me it can be a very long day! Although I will definitely pop some fake tan on pronto - those milk bottles are offending my eyes. 6 long months without any sun!

So what do you think of my #GeorgeousRacewear? Have you got any days at the races planned?

  10. I didn't notice any of the outfit because that bag was shouting at me! Love it and can't believe it's from George! I also love how you contrasted it against black. I grew up in a village with a racecourse (Haydock) so I'm always in need of an outfit for the races! Xx

  11. Very interesting blog. A lot of blogs I see these days don't really provide anything that attract others, but I'm most definitely interested in this one. Just thought that I would post and let you know.
