In our circle of friends, floral dresses, oversized sunglasses, strappy sandals & flamboyant hats can only mean one thing come June: BELMONT! Since the beginning of time, our newly engaged friends Meena & Adam have been organizing an excursion to the Belmont Stakes that's fully-equipped with a party bus, coolers full of food and drink, and plenty of trilby hats and seersucker. Never ones for gambling, we direct our focus instead to going all-out with the attire. Here are some of our looks from years past, as well as the dresses we'll be rocking at this year's event, taking place tomorrow, June 11th:
Posing with the park's adorable brass band with our friends Micol (L) and Rose (R) in 2010.
A close-up of our home-made hats. Every year, Meena hosts a hat-making party where we go crazy with hot glue guns and embellishments like colorful ribbons and fake flowers. Strawberries, roses and butterflies were merely a few of the items adorning our hats in 2010.
Here we are on the bus in 2009, sporting our usual floral attire, and another home-made hat (on LoGo)
And now: the big reveal....what will we be wearing this year?!
LoDo plans to sport this strapless Mango dress with removable bow...
...while LoGo is opting for stripes in this short ASOS dress with a Peter-pan collar and open back.
Stay tuned for more photos, straight from the track.
Let the races begin!
