Ladies Day at Monmouth Park
Hey everyone! I had the privilege of going to Monmouth Park, located in Oceanport, New Jersey, where I attended Ladies' Day sponsored by Lilly Pulitzer two years in a row! A portion of all paid admission went to support a Breast Cancer Research Foundation. This was so much fun, and not only did I get to watch the horse races but I got to see a Lilly fashion show that showed off the up and coming fall features!! That was so much fun and afterwards you were able to hit up a Lilly Pulitzer pop store for some shopping.

This was super fun and something I would totally recomend doing with a friend. I went with my Grandmother this year and she had a blast. She loves seeing the horse races but also enjoyed the fashion show. It was so awesome seeing all the people that showed up in there Lilly dresses. There were so many from a bunch of her different collections. I saw some that were probably on sale before I was even born. Which makes me super happy knowing my dresses can last that long.

My Outfit
So for last year I wore my awesome monogrammed Marley Lilly sun hat, it fit in perfectly with what everyone else was wearing. There was also a contest for who could have the best derby hat. I love my Marley Lilly hat so much its both comfy and stylish. You can wear it to the beach, the lake, and of course the race track. The cute dress that I wore was a T.J. Maxx find, I bought it back when I joined Phi Mu because we needed a white dress. Let me tell you it has come in handy multiple times. It is really comfy and has a perfect fit esspecially for a day at the track.

This year I finally bought a Lilly Pulitzer dress so I was able to wear it. I bought the dress for my graduation, but I just really wanted a Lilly dress. I love the bright colors that are in it and not to metion my Jacks are a perfect match to the dress.

My Accessories
The bag that I brought to last years was perfcet to hold everything that I needed that day. I was able to fit my raincoat, because there was a chance of rain, my wallet, my sunglasses and case, and my phone. The bag was from L. L. Bean and I was able to get it monogrammed and the color matches perfectly with the color of the accents on the bag. It is a perfect bag for any actitivy, and the best part is that it has a zipper at the top so that my stuff won't fall out. The pearl necklace was a handmedown but it was the perfect necklace for that dress. I also wore two rope bracelets that went with the what I was wearing perfectly. The sailor knot bracelet was from a cute shop at the shore and the other is a Kiel James Patrick bracelet which has a super cute anchor clasp on it.
This year I also wore another one of my favorite KJP bracelets. This one if from there pearl bracelet collections and it has a super cute navy bow on it. The navy bow matched perfectly with my watch with is from Daniel Wellington. I love this watch because the band can be changed out so that it can match any outfit. I have two bands as of right now one is navy and white (the one seen in the picture) and a red, white, and blue one. Lastly I wore a bracelet that I go on sale at an Aeropostale.

This is the best shirt for a day at the track in the middle of the summer. I found this super cute Sweet Tee from Lauren James, and I was lucky to get it during the LJ Pink Friday sale this summer. With the cute pastel race horses on the back its great that for a day the track or showing off your preppy side.
Happy Shopping
