Royal Ascot is the place to be seen every summer as you can rub shoulders with the elite of British society whilst taking in some of the most famous horse races in the world.

If you have a ticket for the Grandstand or Silver Ring or even the Royal Enclosure then this is the perfect excuse to really dress to impress.

If you're in the Royal Enclosure in particular then you must adhere to a strict dress code which includes no off the shoulder, halter neck or spaghetti straps and mini-skirts and bare midriffs are a definite no-no.

With such a strict dress code it can be difficult to add your own flair to an outfit which is why outrageous hats are almost as much of a crowd pleaser as the races at Royal Ascot.

There is another way of making an impact though by forgoing the extreme headwear for a more subtle affair and trying out a designer handbag to personalise your outfit and hit the highest fashion note.

Lulu Guinness Collectables should be your first stop for a truly show-stopping designer handbag as these elegant handbags have a touch of quirkiness which will make them real conversation starters.

The beautiful Lulu Guinness Ostrich Feather Drop Fan will team up perfectly with a fascinator and the delicate black feathers will also work well with any colour of outfit making it a classic designer handbag choice.

A touch of humour always goes down well at very formal occasions so show your lighter side with the cute and kooky Lulu Guinness Couture Stripe Mini Hat Box as a subtle nod to the event's obsession with hats.

The Lulu Guinness Collectable Blue Silk Embroidered Birdcage is also another option for a designer handbag with a difference and the stunning embroidered design and luxurious materials make this bag a befitting choice for a royal occasion.

Bright colours are a great way to make your outfit pop and adding a designer handbag in hot pink or eye catching silver will ensure all eyes are on you for the right reasons.

The Aksuona Pink Satin and Silver Leather Karma Woven Clutch combines both pastel pink and silver in a funky woven design which will complement many outfit choices.

The Aksuona Purple Satin and Gunmetal Leather Karma Woven Clutch from the same range also works well, especially as it features the royal colour of purple.

Other striking options are the classic and elegant Tabitha Silver Tab Clutch or the Baibella Rita Silver Leather Bow Clutch With Handle both of which will add sparkle to your outfit and are extremely versatile so are a great investment.

The range of fabulous designer handbags at Handbags and Gladrags will ensure you don't have to rely on an oversized hat to stand out at this year's Royal Ascot. Check out the huge collection of fantastic designer handbags fit for royalty online today.
