It’s that time of the year again when fashion gets a little ‘horsey’ and our minds wander (trot? canter?) to thoughts of race day headwear.

For most of us, buying headpieces doesn’t feature highly on our must-do lists and so the task can understandably be a little daunting.

If you’re like me, you have trouble picturing yourself in one the larger, more elaborate styles and long for something still festive, but a little simpler.

Well, you’re in luck (which could be seen as a good omen for the Spring Racing Carnival, yes?) The trend this season is for more minimal, striking, graphic styles that act as the perfect complement to a great hairstyle.
