[ a day at the races ]

THE highlight of my weekend was going to the Dubai World Cup on Saturday. It was my first time to the races so I was pretty excited!


Held at Meydan Racecourse and known as the world's richest race day with top prize of $10 million.






Of course a huge part of the races is the fashion and hats...

The hats were definitely my favourite part...

Here's my hat {nothing too crazy}...



With a fireworks show, an acrobatic plane, elaborate floats and a concert, it was definitely a fun day...


Have you ever been to the races?

The Target is located at the Orillia Mall...old Zellers. Both Zellers in Bracebridge and Huntsville have officially closed now. Totally worth the hour drive! I just went again on Saturday. I was rushed through both times...next time I plan on going alone and staying for hours! It is blowing so hard out there right now...and carrying blustery billows of snow! Emma is now in Amsterdam...last night she didn't settle in until 4am their time...oh this poor mama...the waiting to hear from her kills me! I know she is going to have the time of her life...xoxo
