As you may (or may not) know last Saturday marked the 140th renewal of "The Greatest Two Minutes in Sports":
The Kentucky Derby! Now, I live no where near Kentucky or the fabulous race itself but
Derby Day festivities were plentiful in Scottsdale, AZ & the required attire was GRAND! I already had the perfect dress, heels, bag & jewelry, the only thing missing was a fabulous hat. Luckily, there's a fantastic
hat shop in my area that specializes in + carries every kind of hat you could imagine/desire & they've become my go-to (remember
THIS one?) for any kind of special "hat required" occasion.
Only one question remained: BIG hat or whimsical fascinator!? I quickly decided that a majority of the attendees would likely show up in a big hat (as they are easier to come by & more practical/versatile), so the answer was clear and I was off to the races! I couldn't be more thrilled with my choice. Although difficult to drive in (thank you sunroof), the abundance of compliments this fascinator commanded solidified it as my new favorite "hat"! Now I just need to find more excuses/occasions to wear it. Any ideas??

I hope you were able to spend some quality time with your nearest/dearest this long Memorial Day weekend, while giving thanks for the great sacrifices that the men and women of the armed services make to defend our way of life!
