Another Keenaland fashion question

I'm not usually on this board, but I'm an NKY/Cincy nestie and thought you girls could be helpful. 

I saw the post below, but I will not be in a corporate box.  We'll be tailgating.  Should I still wear nice slacks or can I go a bit more casual?  Do people wear jeans? 
I have only been once and it was 80 degrees so I wore a skirt and nice top.  I always have trouble dressing for spring temps. 

TIA. 

Re: Another Keenaland fashion question

  • I've only been twice, and neither time was to watch races, but I would assume that for general seating jeans would be okay.  Hopefully some of the Lexington girls will have more insight for you.

  • every time i go, i tend to dress up a little bit.  mainly b/c IMO keeneland is a tad "nicer" than churchill.  don't get me wrong, i LOVE churchill, but most people at keeneland are pretty preppy and dress well.  i'd stick w/ slacks, but do keep in mind you'll probably be tailgating in the grass and it's been awfully wet around here.  well... there's pavement close by too.  anyway, if you go w/ jeans, just make sure they're nice and maybe wear a nice top.  try to wear a chunky heel so you don't sink in the grass as that might be a problem.  have a great time and ask all the questions you need!!!

  • When we went last year with the kids, we went casual. If it's not going to be warm, I would dress for the weather. Imo, Keeneland general seating isn't very nice.
  • You will see every type of dress at Keeneland - shorts, jeans, skirts and tops, dresses.  Check with some of your friends.  Even the tailgaters usually dress up.

    Have fun!
