Hat on So Much to Smile About

87th Virginia Gold Cup

On Saturday, for the fourth year in a row, I spent my day at the Virginia Gold Cup steeplechase races in The Plains, Virginia. This year was especially fun as I was a judge for the hat contest along with my friends and fab bloggers Caitlin and Makeda! There were so many amazing hats! Check out my photos from the contest and my tailgate below!

Phew! It sure has been a LONG, but amazing, week! I got back from Wisconsin, met Tinsley Mortimer at an event in Georgetown, previewed the Styleliner, and was even on television! If you haven’t seen the clip yet, you can watch it here – but I’ll be sharing more details and photos next week! It was a super early morning, but so fun to model Rent the Runway dresses on TV with the lovely Caitlin, Sai and Sophie!

Top It Off

I have a thing for hats. Over the summer, I was all about the Panama hat. Right now, I can’t stop thinking about floppy fedoras! First there was this, and then this post – and then the Lucy Williams post and this one on bundling up (see the trend?). Now, I’m obsessed with how Rosie Huntington-Whiteley rocks them (see below). If I thought I could splurge (which I don’t) I’d grab this Eugenia Kim fedora in a second! This Rag & Bone one would work too, but is unfortunately sold out.

Memorial Day weekend is almost here! Time for shorts, sangria, sunglasses and summertime parties! I don’t think I could be more excited!

After a long week and a fun-filled Cinco de Mayo night out with the girls, I couldn’t be happier about it being Friday. I’ll rest up tonight and then it’s off to the races!

I’m still deciding if I want to wear a fascinator or my usual big floppy hat. Anyone else have derby day plans? Have a wonderful weekend, whatever you do!
