Chestertons Polo in the Park 2015.

If you’ve been reading this blog for a while then you’ll know how I love going to the Polo in the summertime. I didn’t go to Polo in the Park last year (I opted for Cowdray and Ham instead), but the girls and I decided to go this year and just spend the afternoon eating and drinking in the sunshine, and watching a bit of the polo. It turned out to be a really fun afternoon, and I’m really glad I went again this year.
We arrived around 1pm and went straight to the food stalls. Calamari for me, pizza for the others. My calamari was ok, not the best I’ve ever had, but it did the job of filling my tummy. The pizzas looked incredible though! Then we headed over to the Pimms tent.

After drinking a jug of Pimms it was onto the Mahiki tent. We decided not to go for one of the famous Pineapples or Coconuts (you can see them here in this post), and instead cooled down with one of the Mahiki ice-lollies! These were so delicious, but very strong!!
We then watched the polo for a bit, got a photo in the photobooth, and then I decided it was time for more ice-cream. I joined the super long queue (it was a really hot day and there was only one ice-cream stand!), and 20 minutes later I was tucking into Pistachio and Blood Orange Gelato! Delish!

My dress is from one of my favourite Aussie shops; Princess Polly.

All in all we had a really lovely day!

    I have loved Polo ever since I first read Jilly Cooper! I have always wanted to play. I would love to go.

    I've never been to the polo – looks like a good time especially with all that yummy food! Pimms looks awesome, I haven't had the first of the summer yet – I am slacking 😉

    Pistachio and blood orange gelato sounds delicious and you look very glam there. Looking forward to catching up for an evening drink

    Ahh, the joy of a day at the polo! Slightly less fun is the day after in my experience 🙂

    All of my friends went to this and LOVED it! I couldn't go because we were in Spain that weekend—whaa—but I definitely want to go next year!
