She added a wide-brimmed brown hat by top mustist Jane Taylor and carried a Hermes bag.
She completed her look with a chic brown cape by Joseph and Boodle’s diamond earrings.
Toff joked in her Instagram caption that she hoped her designer look would stand up to the day’s celebrations.
“Let’s hope I don’t ruin this beautiful two-piece suit in the Guinness Village later,” she joked.
Carol Vorderman, meanwhile, put on a show in style as she headed out to enjoy Ladies Day at Cheltenham Racecourse.
The former Countdown presenter, 62, donned an elegant cape-like tweed jacket coat with a fur lining and added a belt for a more formal look at the Gloucestershire venue.
The festival has ditched its strict dress code for the first time in its 200-year history – but Carol made sure the event was still glamorous as it headed into its second day on Wednesday.
She paired the age-defying display with brown gloves and trousers and knee-high Swedish boots.

More relaxed: For the first time, the Cheltenham Festival has lifted its strict dress code, so dresses are no longer compulsory
She adopted the more relaxed dress code but kept her look with her honey-toned locks in a typically perfectly styled blow-dryer and a glamorous makeup palette with smoky eyes.
Going for a palette of neutral tones, she carried a furry bag and a sleek hat in muted colors.
On Ladies Day, guests usually put together their most fashionable ensembles for a day in style.
The historic social event, which dates back to the early 19th century, introduced a new ‘inclusive’ dress code this year, which organizers hope will make spectators feel ‘confident and relaxed’ when they attend.
That means dresses, heels and hats are no longer mandatory as organizers hope to attract a younger crowd to the venue, who welcome jeans and trainers.
In the past, entering some enclosures required wearing a jacket and tie, while wearing sneakers was also frowned upon.
The announcement comes at a time when the racecourse is struggling to stem a drop in attendance.
Jockey Club Chief Executive Nevin Truesdale said last month: “Horse racing has always been a sport enjoyed by people from all backgrounds and it’s really important to us to be accessible and inclusive.
“We hope that by no longer imposing expectations on people about what they should and shouldn’t wear, we can help highlight that racing is truly for everyone.
“For those who visit our venues, a day at the races is about spending quality leisure time with friends and family and we believe people enjoy themselves best when they are feeling relaxed. A big part of this is wearing clothes that you feel comfortable in.

“While The Jockey Club has a rich heritage and history, it is also a forward-thinking organization with a strong emphasis on diversity and inclusion and always striving to reflect modern trends.
“As we reviewed this area of the race day experience, we realized that in the eyes of many of our race-goers, enforcing a dress code in the 21st century seems rather outdated.
“Obviously that doesn’t mean we stop people from dressing up for a day at the races if they want to.”
“This is about giving people the choice and ability to go to the race dressed in what makes them feel most comfortable and confident, while also taking into account the challenges that the British weather regularly presents.”
