Kentucky Derby 2017 at West Laurel Hill

Kentucky Derby 2017 is upon us!  Y’all know I love any excuse to get dressed up.  What better one that for Kentucky Derby?  If you are reading this post then you get a peek at my outfit for today.  I will be attending a Kentucky Derby event today at 4:30 pm at West Laurel Hill Cemetery.  You can learn more about that from last years post here.

So more about the West Laurel Hill Derby Party.  Proceeds from the event will benefit Hope Springs Equestrian Therapy for the third year in a row.  Last year, my mom won best dressed!  It was a special experience since it was Mother’s Day weekend and she said she felt like a star.  Well mom, this year I’m coming for ya.

Since I know more of what to expect this year, I will try to get more footage for you than last year.  There will be horse and carriage rides, guest fashion judges which judge best dressed male and female.  They also judge best bowtie and hat of the evening.  Like last year, there will be a photo booth, mint juleps and traditional Derby dishes!  My inner southern belle is screaming with excitement!

Before I go, I would like to thank ShopPriceless for this amazing dress!  When I saw it on the website I knew it would be perfect for Kentucky Derby.
