NASCAR races are often all day social events. Dressing for race day can be daunting for those wishing to remain both fashionable and comfortable. Use these race day tips to stand out in the crowd and support your favorite driver.

The NASCAR season stretches over most of the year, but more often than not race days tend to be warm. Though many think sundresses are the only option for fashionable summer dressing, there are many fashionable alternatives that offer the same wow factor with a higher degree of comfort. Shorts are back, and designers are offering selections in almost any length, from jaunty to-the-knee clam diggers to barely-there short shorts. Choose a length that works for you and go for a fabric other than the typical denim. Twill shorts give a dressier feel and can be purchased in almost any color imaginable.

While t-shirts in support of a favorite driver remain a top choice at races, thick cotton is not always the best warm weather option. Layering two tank tops in your driver’s colors is a great way to show loyalty and still remain chic and cool. Sun protection is always important when spending the day outside, so consider adding a gauzy long sleeve shirt to your ensemble. It won’t add bulk, but will provide some protection from the sun.

Accessories are the best way to inexpensively customize an outfit for any occasion. Many stores offer racing themed Mardi Gras beads that look great over a race day outfit and can be shared with companions. Hand them out to your friends (both those you came with and those you’ve just met) for a fun memento of your day out.

Don’t forget the sunglasses, both aviators and Audrey Hepburn styles are favorites, and enjoy the race!
