Derby Bound


I am headed to Louiseville tomorrow with friends to the Kentucky Derby. To tell you the truth, I can't believe it.  Having watched it for as long as I can remember, this seems like a dream.  The hat and outfit process has been a bit stressful- I mean, you really need the perfect hat. After all this is a once in a lifetime event. You just have to have the perfect hat. Actually I need 2 perfect hats.  Thanks to a friend's tip, I found a lovely woman who had a fantastic collection of hats in the basement of her store.   I made the one with the flower and ribbon- glue gun city :)





 On Friday,we will go to watch the  Kentucky Oaks (for fillies only.) Friday is pink day- and Saturday is the actual Derby.  Can't wait- stay tuned. Did I mention that Vineyard Vines is a sponsor this year?  Check out their Kentucky Derby collection. Heaven.
