Sunday at the Racetrack

If you read my post from Monday then you know that on Sunday I spent the day at Monmouth Park Racetrack with America's Best Racing.  After our amazing tour of the stables we went into the track to watch the horses race.  It was so nice to be back at the racetrack enjoying such a beautiful sport.  I love how glamorous a trip to the track is especially at Monmouth because of the many historic touches that make me feel like I've been transported back in time.  


We started off our time by going to get lunch at the Dining Terrace.  We were lucky enough to get seated at the window and really enjoyed the endless views of the track.  It was quite nice to be able to watch the races in air conditioning with our lunch!  If you ever make your way to Monmouth Park I suggest eating here, our food was great and like I mentioned the views are fabulous.

When we finished our lunch we headed to place some bets and watch the races up close.  One of our favorite things to do is watch the horses and jockeys enter the track before we watch the race.  After watching quite a few races we met up with Victoria from America's Best Racing who was sweet enough to take us into the paddock, which is always a such a fun thing to do.

I love dressing up to go to the track and feel like it really adds to the experience.  For this trip I wore a romper by L'Atiste by Amy (get it in mint here!) that I recently purchased at local boutique Juli Mei in Spring Lake, NJ.  I paired it with DV by Dolce Vita Wedges (similar here) and rose gold jewelry.

 

I always have such a wonderful time at the races and highly recommend checking out the track out if you have one near you.  I suggest making a day of it and getting dressed up to really enjoy and appreciate the glamour and athleticism this sport has to offer.  A big thanks to America's Best Racing for an awesome day!
