Today is a big day in San Diego as the horse race season begins with Opening Day at the Del Mar Racetrack! I have been attending this event for the last 5 years but because of work obligations, this year I will be unable to attend *tear* I will, however, be going a few times this season to place a quinella bet (I don’t even know what quinella actually is, but I like to use the term because it makes me sound like a sophisticated gambler). The big thing on Opening Day, aside from the shenanigans, is wearing a big hat or (more popular after the royal wedding) a fascinator. You can see what I’ve worn in the past here to get a better idea of how fun it is to dress up for this event.
Usually a week before Opening Day, girls are scrambling for hats and the supply of hats in San Diego takes a huge dip! Last Thursday, Shopaholics Boutique did a great job not only supplying hats, but showing gorgeous ways in which to wear them in their Hat & Dress for the Races Party. The added bonus, my fellow blogger and my San Diego Style Bloggers partner, Rachel modeled some adorable looks. Here’s what I wore for the event… and most importantly, below are my favorite looks of the night!
