Amy Parsons-King finds some tops you can bet on this race day.
It's only once a year that we get the opportunity to legitimately take the day off work, get dressed up and drink too much wine, so cup day is kind of a big deal.
And let's be honest, for most of us women we're more concerned about a winning outfit than a winning horse.
Deciding what to wear to this glamorous event can be a struggle. I know, I've been there.
I can sympathise with how difficult it can be to find something to wear that's not only sophisticated and stylish but also flattering.
Well this season I have the answer, a perfect synergy of understated and sexy. Three little words: off the shoulder.
This style is ideal because you literally never hear a woman complaining about her shoulders! You never hear her saying her decolletage looks too fat in this or her shoulders don't look flattering that.
Undeniably, this is why off-the-shoulder clothing is so damn popular this spring, because as much as we like to find fault in our figures, it's difficult to fault collarbones.
This race season embrace the opportunity to subtly show off some skin in all the gorgeous off-the-shoulder items on offer.
Whether you choose a cute crop top paired with wide-leg trousers and sky-high heels or a shoulder-baring tube dress with lace-up sandals, this spring let your shoulders shine.
Making a statement
Forget fascinators on cup day. For a totally onpoint off-the-shoulder look go for statement earrings and necklaces.
