What to Wear to the Lecomte Stakes at Fair Grounds

Wear White and Look Like a Posh Winter Wonderland at the Lecomte Stakes at Fair Grounds Race Course

With winter in full swing it’s time to embrace classic winter looks while you still have the chance! It used to be said that white was only for the summer time, but winter white is a current day classic staple for the colder months. The key to wearing white in Winter, especially to Fair Grounds Race Course for the Lecomte Stakes, is to stay away from lightweight summer fabrics like linen and eyelet and to use warmer richer shades of white like cream and ivory. Temperatures will be in the low fifties for the 2014 Lecomte Stakes so pulling off the Winter Wonderland look should be easy!

One great way to try winter white is to wear a simple white coat for the Lecomte Stakes. The three coats pictured below are classic and yet right on trend. All of the coats add instant richness to your look.

You can also try a neutral monochrome look and pair white separates together, like pairing a wool skirt with a matching cardigan. Or you can just do one full piece in white like a cap sleeve dress or a cowlneck sweater dress.

No matter what kind of winter white look you choose you will look cozy, warm, and elegant. Pair you winter white with gold accessories and look especially luxurious. Try a pave link gold bracelet.

Since you’re wearing all white, you can let your headpiece be your pop of color with a cobalt blue fascinator or go all out in winter white with a white topper.
