Spring is near! And race season is fasting approaching us… with Cheltenham Races kicking off in just five days time. I’m also loving their #ColourMeMarch campaign that they’re promoting; encouraging women to share their outfit inspiration for the big event, Ladies Day.
Pearls, diamantés, clashing prints and a super extravagant fascinator? Absolutely. I love to live colourfully and I’m placing my bets on this bright, bold and effortlessly elegant outfit. You can find the total look online. You guys know I’ve been loving online shopping lately, I always find great deals, even a target coupon!

The dress
This dress. I’ve been crushing on this dress ever since French Connection unveiled it’s SS15 collection. The print is just magical, with so many different colours you can accessorise this over and over again, and create a different look every time – making this a go-to staple for all special occasions, year in, year out.
The fascinator
Now, this lady is TALENTED. London-based Julia Hardy, aka CrownJules, makes bespoke hats and fascinators to compliment every outfit. Visit her online shop which showcases lots of incredible pieces, or drop her a line with your outfit details and she’ll tailor a magnificent headpiece just for you.
“I don’t shy away from wearing something spectacular” – CrownJules
The clutch
Cute, bold and shimmering with pearls and diamantés… what more does a girl want? A shoulder strap for when you’re placing your bets? Tick. This beautiful, super-bling clutch is by Head Over Heels at Dune. I love the coral colour too, which matches the splash on the dress, the feather on the fascinator and the…
The shoes
Tassles on the shoes! HOW adorable are these shoes? These really remind me of my favorite handcrafted Portuguese footwear. Feel every inch a polka dot princess, as Boden gives us this gorgeous and utterly chic Alice High Heel collection. Championing polka dot prints and striking block colour designs, you can choose from five stunning pairs (and they come in half sizes too!).
‘A modern take on a vintage shape, our new T-bar heels boast on-trend tassels and bright contrast colours’ – Boden.
The jewels
I’ve not had these Zara pearl earrings off since I bought them… I love, love, LOVE them. I’ve had lots of compliments while wearing them too (thank you all!) and this ‘front and back’ silhouette is all the rage this season.
Strike… I also love this mega sweet ‘Wishing Bracelet’ by Stella & Dot. Wishing for a big win at the races? I think so… and the yellow reminds me of the sunshine 🙂 AND it matches the butterflies on the fascinator too… Happy days.
Glamorous and delightful, this Capri Stone Ring encircled with diamanté and opalescent studs from Accessorize completes the outfit perfectly. Magic.
Five days and counting!
