Where to Wear a Fascinator

Like to wear fascinators but not sure where to wear them besides weddings, well here goes....

1. Any church events, these are always worth wearing your Sunday Best for!

2. Horseracing, most race courses have a Ladies Day throughout the Summer, look out for them if you like champagne and a bit of gambling, and remember, most Ladies Day have a prize for the best dressed lady. The prize could be anything from a gift voucher to a car! Winning a prize is definitely worth getting dressed up for!

Here are some horseracing events happening in 2009 in the UK

12th March - Ladies Day Cheltenham

2nd-4th April - Grand National Derby

5th June - Ladies Day Epsom

18th June - Ladies Day Ascot

28th-31st July - Glorious Goodwood

3. Cocktail parties, always fun to add a feather to your hair to match with your evening dress.

4. Burlesque nights, this is where you can camp it up

Look out for more events being posted soon!
