Kentucky Derby

I went to the Kentucky Derby this past Saturday with my best friend Carley and her family - it was so fun and unforgettable! The weather was perfect, the horses were perfect, and the fashion was most definitely perfect.

I loved seeing everyone's adorable outfits and hats! I have never seen so many people dressed up so cutely in one place (170,000 people in attendance).  So much Lilly Pulitzer, Vineyard Vines, and so many guys in pastel and seersucker and bowties...*insert heart eye emoji*!

I wasn't planning on betting on a horse, but my mom gave me money so I wagered $10 on horse #2 - Carpe Diem.  He was in the top three for the majority of the beginning of the race, but the other horses passed him up in the end. Oh "whale" though, it was still fun to watch and cheer for him.

The night before the derby we were driving to supper and we saw the Vineyard Vines vehicle parked in a parking lot so I begged them to stop so I could take a picture with it (I was wearing VV after all!)

All in all we had so much fun and shared so many laughs together - hopefully I'll have the chance to go again someday :)

Did any of y'all go to the Derby? Love,
