As a mother and someone who works from home, I don’t get the chance to dress up very often. So I always get excited when I have a wedding or a posh event to go to so I can spend hours perusing ASOS and Topshop looking for the perfect outfit.
Right now Royal Ascot is happening, so I thought I would put together a few pretty dresses to wear as well as a bit about the dress code – the last thing you want when you’re looking forward to an exciting day out is to not be allowed in because you’ve inadvertently worn a dress with spaghetti straps to the Royal Enclosure.
I think when you’re attending something like Ascot, you should have a bit of fun with your outfit, whilst remaining elegant. It’s not something you’ll attend very often, so make your outfit a bit playful, or accessorize with a giant hat that you’d never normally wear.
Make sure you check out this post from Coast before you make your way there in your beautiful dress: The Ascot Races Dress Code.
Have you been to any posh events where you dress up recently? Or are you going to any soon? I’d love to hear about them!
