as a native louisvillian (is that real?!) the first weekend in may has always held a special place in my heart! i never knew it wasn’t normal to have no school that weekend or the whole city you lived in to be flushed with celebrities. it’s such a magical month in louisville from the boat races, to the air show, & then finally the oaks & derby. if you have never been and get a chance it is definitely something to experience!

with the upcoming races and multitude of parties i thought i would mix and match some of my favorite looks for the festivities! i’m IN LOVE with the new ted baker floral pattern and this dress is to die for. although you want to look good make sure to keep those heels comfortable. no matter the box or paddock you will be standing allll day. these nude mules are a great pick that will stand out and you can get so much use out of after derby weekend!

hope you like the picks and stay tuned for a fun post next week with an amazing louisville hat designer you will want to snag your own look from!

ps i know i’ve done these before but just click on the dress, shoes, or hat to take you to the source!
