Zara Tindall has never failed us with her sartorial prowess, no matter the season, and her latest outing is no exception.
The daughter of Princess Anne, 76, was a vision when she stepped out at Cheltenham on Saturday wearing a blue and purple chequered suit of dreams; a creation from Vernonica Beard.

The equestrian's trademark blonde tresses were swept back into a glamorous updo framing her beautiful gold earrings.
Zara added a cross-body leather bag, autumnal black suede boots and black leather gloves. She finished her look with a pair of Hector Lion earrings.
On her lapel, Zara proudly had her Jockey Club badge. In late 2019, The Jockey Club appointed the Olympian as a non-executive director on the Cheltenham Racecourse Committee.

Zara is attending Cheltenham for the October opener, The Showcase Meeting, which marks the end of the summer hiatus and the return of National Hunt racing.
It is a two-day weekend meeting held on a Friday and Saturday late in October. While the Cheltenham Festival in March is the sport's championship pinnacle, the October Showcase acts as the "curtain raiser". The best trainers use the meeting to test promising novice chasers, give returning stars a run after summer turnout, and gauge which horses can handle Cheltenham's undulating track and uphill climb to the line.
Zara's top tips for Cheltenham dressing
In an exclusive interview with HELLO! Zara opened up about how to nail dressing for Cheltenham.
"Choose a classic, tailored outfit, but make sure to incorporate layers and weather-appropriate accessories. For me, it’s about what works and feels good to wear."
Zara added: "For events where I have to get more dressed up, I work with an amazing stylist who's brilliant at finding pieces that reflect the type of event it is.

She also said previously of her royal mother: "Mum taught me the importance of having good-quality clothing that keeps you warm and comfortable outdoors."
