Cheltenham Races

And just like that, it is that time of the year again the November Meeting at Cheltenham Racecourse! So what are some racing ‘Must Haves’ you need to be the most stylish gal or guy at Cheltenham races this year! Whether you choose to go hard, or go home we at Hicks & Hides have collated a perfect style guide to help you get the Cheltenham look!

First up we have the Fedora hat!

The November meet is always a bit hit and miss with the lovely British weather, and one things for sure Cheltenham in November does feel like the coldest place on earth! So a Fedora hat doubles up not only for some extra insulation, but also looks stylish whilst keeping the drizzle out of your hair. If your feeling extra festive you can even add a little British feather, just to make sure you really look that part! Hicks & Brown do some lovely wool hats, in all colours, shapes and sizes. 

Next is the perfect Cheltenham races coat!

Now this truly is a big decision. Finding the perfect Cheltenham coat is always a little bit challenging. It needs to be the perfect mix of being both stylish and incredibly warm. Guinea have some gorgeous cashmere and wool coats that really fit the bill. They are elegant whilst being trendy and have some gorgeous detailing, our personal favourite has to be the Guinea Oxford Wool Coat. Charlotte Simone is another stunning company that can elevate your cold weather wardrobe with their beautiful Mongolian trims which spices up any outfit! 

Leather accessories

Now, we may very bias but it would be rude not to mention our perfect range of leather handbags and clutches which really do make any Cheltenham outfit complete. If you are feeling a little bit funky we have our stunning Safari Clutches which practical and stylish! If you are looking for something that is both timeless and classic we also have our Charlton Bit Clutch Bag which is complete with snaffle detailing, perfect for racing! Or we have our Cowhide Clutch Bag which is the perfect mix of the two. All our stunning clutch bags have matching belts to complete the look! 

If you are needing something a little bigger than a clutch we also have our unique range of leather handbags, which come in all shapes and sizes! Our personal favourite has to be the Didbrook Stirrup Handbag which keeps with our horsey theme. This gorgeous bag comes in navy and is complete with both a shoulder and crossbody strap! Perfect for when you might be feeling a little wobbly by the end of the day.

Now boys, hopefully you are not rolling your eyes at this point … we also have you covered. Our stunning range of belts are the perfect accompaniment to any tweed ensemble. We also have a beautiful range of leather wallets to match, which are perfect for you to bring home all your winnings!
