Derby Days

Kendra's Style Team May 9, 2012

Wide brims and elaborate toppings reigned yet again at the 138th annual Kentucky Derby on Saturday.  The derby gives Americans the opportunity to don the high fashion accessory seen in Great Britain on a regular basis.  Lavish hats topped with feathers, bows and flowers are staples for derby spectators. But hats aren’t the only fun accessory seen at the event.  Our Valencia Necklace and Danielle Earrings in purple were spotted amongst the crowd this year along with our Ava Necklace!

 

Hats aren’t just for watching famous horse races.  Floppy straw hats are perfect for protecting your face from the sun and feather hair accessories are great conversation starters.  Whether you are lying by the pool or hitting the town, hats are a must have accessory for the summer.  Need some inspiration?  Check out our fabulous sales rep, Nichole, rocking a floppy hat during her HQ Fashion shoot.

Now tell us, how will you wear this daring accessory?

    That’s my friend’s mom and future sister in law! We did some shopping with you at the Jr League Rummage Roundup the other weekend!

    We love your jewelry – it hints of vintage, which is our favorite thing :)

    Thanks for sharing!

    Out of 165,000 people at the Kentucky Derby this year. I am impressed that you found to people that are related in the above picture. We were not even sitting with each other. The jewelry is beautiful. We are from Waco Texas. We shop at the store in Dallas.

    Love seeing your baubles on Derby goers. I was born & raised in Kentucky & the Derby always takes place on Saturday, not Sunday as stated above.
