We arrived, just as the sun was coming up over Churchill Downs, and we were not the first ones.
my personal fave
matching separates
And some jockeys!
Would you believe that we parked one block away from Churchill Downs and it took us an hour and 37 minutes to get back to our car at the end? Would you believe that I would do it again? :) Special thanks to all the lovelies that posed for pictures! xoxo

Whoa! Those are some AMAZING hats! I'm loving all the pink and bright colors, too... so girly and fun! The Derby is a great place to get away with wearing wild and crazy hats like these. :)

For sure! That's one of my top reasons to go! :)
DeleteWoow! Checkout those lovely hats! Now the ostrich hat has to be my favorite. Add Kentucky Derby to my bucket list. Nice post Chelsey!
ReplyDeleteThanks Love! There were hats that were more over the top, but not exactly fashion friendly, so I didn't post those. But they were out there! Fun!
DeleteSo jealous. Looks like it was fabulous fun. I've always dreamed of going there!
ReplyDeleteHey Becky! Yes it was pretty coolio! Cool things to look at, but we didn't place any bets... :)
DeleteAhhh!! What a fun post!! Love all of the eye candy. This looks like such a fun event, just for the fashion alone. Maybe next year I can find a local bar with a Kentucky Derby party so i can wear a cool hat. :)

Definitely do it! Or throw your own! That's what a lot of people in Nashville do too. But plus we have the Steeple Chase tomorrow. (Nashville's own version of the K.D.)
DeleteSome gorgeous outfits!
ReplyDeleteLove the pink and orange tones a lot were wearing so stunning!

There were some great neon colors involved! Some I couldn't even capture, because there were so many people I would end up losing the girl in the crowd!
DeleteWow! How fun! Everyone looked amazing...and pink definitely was the color!

Definitely! There were other colors as well, but the oranges, peaches, and pinks took the cake.
DeleteThis looks like so much fun! I really want to go and see all the crazy hats and experience all the fun in person.

I suggest everyone goes at least once in their lifetime. Check! Just make sure you book your stay way way in advance. I learned that the hard way. :/
