Talk Derby to Me

535808f0b7739$!900xThis Saturday is the 141st Kentucky Derby (they were doing this in 1874?!), and we’re going to a Derby party at Julep on Saturday. Ashley of Sugar & Cloth and Meredith of Cake & Confetti are styling the event, so you know it’s going to look fabulous.

The obvious predicament Derby-goers are faced with is their outfit for the big day. The Race for the Roses is notorious for the fashionable attendees, almost as much as the actual horse race. I’ve put together four outfits to help you decide what to wear, each being inspired by various style icons: Kate Middleton, Sarah Vickers, Lauren Conrad and Erin Andrews. Which is your favorite look? Are you getting dolled up for the Derby this year?

Ever so slightly obsessed with these Kentucky Derby invitations by Lauren Chism – are they not perfect? As is the styling for the photos!

We had dinner with Sasha’s best friends on Saturday, and one of the couples is heading to the Derby this weekend. I have always wanted to go! I would be all over those hats. The Derby makes me think of Classy Girls Wear Pearls, which is funny given that her most recent post is about packing for this big event!
