Race day dilemmas.

I've never been very good at choosing what to wear. 
Back in school if there was a "non school uniform day" I'd always be filled with dread thinking about what to pick as an outfit. 

So when my old school friends invited me to Ladies Day at Chepstow Races, I was obviously excited to spend time with them but immediately my thoughts turned to what to wear! 

Now I know the specifications are not as strict as Ascot, but looking good is a matter of pride!! Well, pride and the fact that there is a £1,000 prize for the winner!! 

With thanks to the running challenge we have going at SGW, I am currently slimmer than I have been in a long while, also thanks to attending one too many parties I have ZERO budget!! So I've resorted to raiding my wardrobe. I've chosen my favourite Red dress, and teamed it with and old pair of wedges. So far zero cost! 


I then hit the shops and bought a fascinator from M&S and a bag from Accessorise  (which was damaged so on sale for a fiver!) All in all my outfit cost a grand total of £14.50!! I'm not saying I will win the best dressed but if I do that's pure profit! And you can buy a LOT of cocktails for a GRAND!! 

Will let you know how the day goes!! I'm mostly excited about the Take That tribute band!!! 

Lots of love
