My Kentucky Derby hats go EVERYWHERE! Pt. 3 ~ Ascot, England



It seems that no matter where you go to the horse race, the “hat” is in!

Royal Ascot 2013 - Day 2
The Royal Ascot takes place in Ascot, England and is more than just a race. It’s an opportunity for the wealthy to showcase their most prized possessions, in both their thoroughbred horses and their taste in fashion and style. There is a strict and formal dress code during this event, including top hats, tails, and fine dresses. The event consists of 24 major races over the course of a four day period. The Royal Ascot is always attended by the Queen, who arrives at the same time each day – almost as entertaining to see as the race itself. (ratestogo.com/blog/9-top-horse-races-around-the-world/)
