I grew up living for the first weekend in May which is 'Derby Day" in my family. My grandfather was an owner/trainer in Louisville, Kentucky and we often would make the trip down to go to the Oaks the day before, and then on Derby Day as well. I usually wore something cute but sensible, as we would be walking around the track and back in the stables. Some day I would like to go all out and wear a beautiful outfit featuring a fancy hat like many of the ladies do. If you are lucky enough to go to the Derby, or are invited to a Kentucky Derby Party, I think I have picked out quite a cute outfit. These are mostly designer items, but his look can be achieved for much less. There are usually very cute hats at TJ Maxx and Nordstrom Rack. It's hard to find these items quickly, so I suggest that the next time you see a great hat, pick it up with next year in mind. All of the items shown are available at Nordstrom.
