The dress code at the Belmont Stakes isn’t as serious as the dress code at the Kentucky Derby, but people still dress up and wear fancy hats — this isn’t NASCAR. Sarah Palin, however, who attended the race on Saturday as a guest of Marylou Whitney — “the reigning socialite in the horse-racing world,” according to StyleList — didn’t dress up at all. She wore a T-shirt, on-trend cargo pants, a trucker hat, and bedazzled sunglasses. Apparently this was her plane outfit and she didn’t have time to change on the way to the race from JFK because her limo got lost. [StyleList]
