Hello Darlings,
Surely you’re thinking, “Racing, again?” No one is as surprised as I am! The things a girl will do for the man she cares about apparently include wearing a pair of jeans in +35°C and waking up at 5:30 am. Despite the minor glitches, which included boiling in the sun and walking half a marathon, I was more than excited to support E and his team at the Toronto Indy.
As an unofficial (though definitely enthusiastic!) part of the team, I have rare access to the pit lane of the races, which I must admit is worth boiling in denim for. For safety reasons, it is a requirement for everyone in the pit lane to be entirely covered. This limits fashion options, but I cannot complain, as the weekend was tons of fun.

For those of you who are dating an athletic type, or who are yourself in the sports industry, you should of course gear up for a day of activities by paying close attention to the dress code (safety first!). In this case, accessories will be your best friend. My personal favorite is a hat, as it not only protects your face from the sun but also takes care of any hair styling woes. And of course, be generous with the SPF!

Saturday, I wore a silk blouse with an open back. As for the final race on Sunday, it was all about team spirit with a racing shirt supporting E’s team. Every outfit was topped off with my new Club Monaco hat, a pair of 3.1 Philip Lim sunnies and my all-time favorite Repetto ballerinas.
How do you support your man in his pursuits?
With Love…
Marta

Marta! I have been following your blog since you told me about it
So happy to see you happy with E, and I love reading about your style tips I need them desperately on these hot days. I support my man by following him around the world with all his endeavors. Exhausting, but rewarding! I linked you to my new photo blog that I hope to have more time to work on. I should start commenting more.

I love your style tips, Marta. And you are looking great in every single outfit. The hat is such a basic piece for the summer heat.
