This year marked my first time watching the tennis live at Wimbledon’s All England Club. I was lucky enough to win tickets for centre court through the public ballot.
What an exciting day it was! For everyone who thinks they cannot sit through a 3-hour tennis match: Fear not, there’s plenty to do and see on the SW19 tennis grounds. 19 accessible outdoor courts offer a diversity of matches: Women, men and doubles. You can flick between courts, go for a coffee or Pimms in one of the food tents or spot famous players warming up on one of the practice courts.
The look of Wimbledon? Classicly preppy, the must-have items of this year:
– Ray ban wayfarers
– Straw fedora hats
– Demure, knee-lengths summer dresses inspired by Tennis fan K-mid herself
– Espadrilles wedges
I am wearing (3 of the above)
– Straw Fedora from TK maxx
– Espadrilles by Bally
– Gingham playsuit by Max Mara
– Shades by Ray Ban
– Crossbody bag by Moschino
