Zara Tindall made a stylish appearance on the opening day of the Cheltenham Festival, arriving with her husband, Mike Tindall.
The 44-year-old dressed for the March chill in a navy wool skirt suit by The Fold, a look she debuted in October last year.
She paired the outfit with knee-high navy suede boots from Fairfax & Favor and carried a brand-new peacock green bag by Aspinal of London.
Adding a bold touch to her look, Zara wore a striking teal hat decorated with felt foliage, which complemented the emerald pussybow blouse visible beneath her jacket.
She finished the ensemble with elegant navy gloves and a distinctive pair of quartz sunglasses by Monc, an accessory she has worn on several occasions before.
A familiar face at the Gloucestershire racecourse, Zara is known for championing British fashion labels and once again impressed with her polished race day look, created with the help of her longtime stylist, Annie Miall.

In March 2025, Zara was announced as an official brand ambassador for Fairfax & Favor.
Last month, she revealed a new collaboration with the label, highlighting a refined mix of traditional heritage influences and contemporary country style.
Zara has long championed the brand’s footwear, stepping out in 11 different pairs at public engagements – including four variations of the much-loved Regina boots seen today.
Her make-up look was equally refined, featuring a smoky eye, smooth foundation and soft pink lipstick.
The mother of three appeared in high spirits, smiling as she glanced towards her husband, 46, who looked equally stylish.
Mike wore a tweed coat over a navy suit and matching tie, finishing the look with polished chocolate brown suede shoes.
The Cheltenham Festival, one of the highlights of the British spring social calendar, runs from 10 to 13 March and includes Champion Day, Ladies Day, St Patrick’s Thursday, and the famous Gold Cup Day.
Earlier this month, it was announced that the hunters’ chase held after the Boodles Cheltenham Gold Cup will now be called the Princess Royal Challenge Cup Open Hunters’ Steeple Chase – in honour of Zara’s mother, Princess Anne.

The outing comes after Princess Anne joined King Charles, Queen Camilla, and the Prince and Princess of Wales at the Commonwealth Day Service held at Westminster Abbey.
Princess Anne and the Princess Kate were forced to deviate from royal protocol at the service yesterday due to a hilarious hat-related dilemma.
Their respective choice of large hats for the occasion made a formal kiss greeting rather challenging.
Footage taken ahead of the service at London’s Westminster Abbey showed how no-nonsense Anne, 75, was forced to blow Kate, 44, a kiss from afar in a desperate bid to avoid the pair from bumping hats.
As the royals arrived at the prestigious event, William, 43, was seen shaking hands and making light conversation with Anne’s husband, Sir Tim Lawrence before embracing his aunt, the Princess Royal, with a kiss on each cheek.
Dressed in an all-green ensemble, Anne spotted Kate making her way over to the group and instead blew her an affectionate kiss to avoid any chance of a hat collision.
Kate, who greeted Sir Tim with a kiss, proceeded to place a delicate hand on Anne’s arm before the pair erupted into laughter at their hilarious hat kiss dilemma.
