She would wear brighter colours and lighten her hair to show off the tan. </p> <p>Katie Price (Jordan) a UK based former glamour model is the epitome of this style<br /> <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1256251/Oscars-2010-Victoria-Beckham-Katie-Price-face-Elton-Johns-Oscars-party--Kelly-Brook-upstages-glamour-stakes.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvs.....takes.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-143225 Wed, 14 Apr 2010 15:19:33 +0000 JennyK (NC) 143225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sure it's entirely deliberate. </p> <p>I would *so* participate and wear something completely over-the-top!</p> <p>What made me go, "yikes!" is the shoes ... on the grass! I had to do the spike-heel-on-grass at lots of parties when I lived in Jamaica and it was absolute, pure torture.

They *must* know, surely? I just feel better about it all if they're deliberately trying to flout the 'rules' and people who look down on trashy styles than if they innocently decided that eye-gouging brights and low-low-cuts were the way to look good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-143026 Wed, 14 Apr 2010 03:15:29 +0000 Debora 143026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oops! Sorry Maya! That didn't come out right at all, did it? Let me rephrase it. What I meant to say was that dress reminded me of your search for a polka dot dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-143020 Wed, 14 Apr 2010 03:00:57 +0000 Maya 143020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Debora, I have mixed feelings about you associating me with that dress :p </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-143012 Wed, 14 Apr 2010 02:46:07 +0000 Katiepea 143012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wowee, there sure are an impressive collection of 'looks' here. My new style bible? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142963 Wed, 14 Apr 2010 01:27:06 +0000 Kristine 142963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Some of those ladies weren't ladies. And I mean that in all sorts of ways. </p> <p>Assuming this is just for the races, I think it's kind of fun. My (lack of) cleavage wouldn't stand a chance at that event, I'd have to emphasize my back or something like that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142866 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 22:33:16 +0000 chewyspaghetti 142866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There must have been someone at the races who wasn't a transvestite or a porn star!?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142861 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 22:29:38 +0000 Angie 142861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, boy. I thought I was the lonely traffic beacon in Milan, sporting my bright accessories amidst a sea of neutral tones. But I have nothing on these ladies. They win hands down. </p> <p>So what do you think: poor style, or deliberate fashion spectacle? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142776 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 18:49:37 +0000 shana 142776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, well it ain't Ascot... I do think they picked out the "worst" of the bunch for these pics though because you can certainly see others in the background who are not dressed so outlandishly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142663 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 16:07:00 +0000 Dawn 142663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Julie, some of those photos are shocking! From what I have seen from the Galway Races in Ireland, some people definitely subscribe to the 'more is more' mentality. The race day hats are crazy, I have seen some mental headwear at the races.</p> <p>Colleen Rooney looks so much sophisicated though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142656 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 15:56:11 +0000 Dusty 142656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad I looked at those pictures at 2 a.m. (I was battling insomnia and it was winning) when the kids were asleep. A couple of those outfits elicited an out loud WTF (except not just the initials). I just couldn't stop it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142642 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 15:22:28 +0000 Debora 142642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, I thought of you when I saw that polka dot dress. Aren't you in the market for one? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142641 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 15:20:47 +0000 Maya 142641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do they not have bras in this part of the country...? </p> <p>I wonder what the fashion doctor's diagnosis was. It must be a plague of sorts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142588 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 13:52:46 +0000 RoseandJoan 142588@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOP, here is an accompanying article<br /> <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/fashion/fashionnews/7572515/Ladies-Day-fashions-at-Aintree-Racecourse-2010.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.telegraph.co.uk/fas.....-2010.html</a><br /> I actually lived in Liverpool (where the racecourse is) at one point and can confirm there is a sub section of the population that dresses in this way on a regular basis. I like to think of it as the 'Pamela Anderson School of Glam' but there are also many more ladies from the city who dress in a more reserved chic way.</p> <p>In contrast to Ascot whose strict dress code leaves little room for imagination Aintree certainly bring out the eccentric and fun approach to dressing. Having now defended Liverpool I have to say the photographs posted still leave me speechless. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142585 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 13:44:35 +0000 LoP 142585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't understand this. Were they trying to be funny and make fun of the whole fashion thing? Each outfit is a bit over the top. My favorite is the polka dot dress with the heart window in the front and head masterpiece! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142566 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 12:52:37 +0000 Debora 142566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! That's some over-the-top fashion! The picture of the red heels and vodka bottle is hilarious. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142548 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 10:51:22 +0000 Louise 142548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh dear doesn't look good! Though I must agree I'm sure they were just picked to be bad ones at least I hope they were!! x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142545 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 10:35:32 +0000 Theresa 142545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Stringy - I was wondering if the photographer was paid to find the worst in everybody...</p> <p>But still, I did giggle hilariously and have forwarded the link to a friend that I often go to the races with as she takes her racewear VERY seriously and will probably die of shock when she sees it!</p> <p>I thought it was hilarious that they had a "fashion doctor tent" thingy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142542 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 10:25:27 +0000 stringy 142542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fascinating. </p> <p>It does seem a bit like the photographer was going out of his way to show people looking bad, though. Smoking isn't really an attractive habit, but catching people mid-puff is a bit unfair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-the-uk-needs-you#post-142541 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 09:53:56 +0000 JuliaInGermany 142541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG!
