Random Royaling – Cheltenham Races

Housekeeping – Well, our Random Royaling and Bits features may be getting sparser as more royal events are cancelled due to the Corona virus crisis. Hang tight, Handbaggers. Over the weekend we’ll figure out what’s cancelled and what’s not, and how we will move forward as a blog. We will have some content over the next month, regardless. In the meantime, take care of yourselves and your families. You are the most important part of the Handbag.

As we noted earlier, let’s leave the Corona virus discussions on outlets more suited for it, and take a look at the Brits at Cheltenham.

This event always brings out the best in the Phillips branch of the family. Below is Zara, day one, two and three. The day two coat has been identified as Laura Green London, and it’s one of my favorite things she has ever worn, although I think for full effect her day one outfit is the best. We are fortunate that the Hat Queen is back, because she has the full lowdown on Day One hats.

Anne and her fabulous orange and horse pin also appeared on Day One. Since it’s all ancient drama, and thus not really drama at this point, we included a shot of Andrew Parker Bowles hanging out with her. Friends forever, right?

Speaking of friends, Autumn and Peter appeared, looking happy and relaxed and wearing some nice, spiffy racing clothes. Oh, Autumn, that is one fine hat and one great color for you.

What do you think of the racing duds? Good, bad or neither?
