Summer daze and Ladies Fashion Days

Well what a Summer, hats off to the fashionistas for dressing up for 'Ladies Day' days at The Grand National and Royal Ascot, a right Royal occasion attended by King Charles, Queen Camilla and members of the family.

Hats off not quite the right wording as the race-goers donned the most flamboyant headgear and frocks with carefully chosen handbags and footwear to complete the outfits. Last week the ladies had another opportunity to shine at the New Market July Festival.

The ladies and celebrities toned down their outfits for Wimbledon, going for traditional white with no over-the-top hats - I mean you can't watch the tennis with someone in the row in front of you in a big hat blocking your vision. The highlight of the event was a radiant Princess Katherine wearing a vibrant purple dress to present the cup to the Men's finalist winner, Carlos Alcaraz
, a perfect match.

"The Princess of Wales made a triumphant return to Wimbledon yesterday - and eagle-eyed fans may have spotted the royal sporting her favourite green-and-purple bow for the occasion. The royal, 42, became patron of the All England Lawn and Tennis Club, also known as the AELTC (which organises the day-to-day running of Wimbledon), since 2016.
Since 2017, the mother-of-three has donned the elegant brooch - which features the tournament's iconic colours - every time she has visited Wimbledon."
