What to Wear to the 4/29 Queens Cup Steeplechase

by scoop team | April 22, 2017

Queen’s Cup is this Saturday, so what are you going to wear? Rain or Shine, or maybe a bit of both, there are no limits on what style you can sport for this event. The options are endless at our Charlotte boutiques with mini dresses, maxi dresses, rompers, and two pieces. Stick to light and airy with a fun pattern or ruffle and you are sure to look your best. Don’t forget shoes that walk well on grass (that is, wedges, block heels or flats), a bag big enough to hold sunscreen, sunglasses AND a small umbrella. And either big, sun blocking hat or a cute cap to deal with drizzle. [scroll down to check out some Hats in the CLT stores now if you need a new one].
