Where's my hat?
I forgot the freakin' title..
Aaah, ladies today in the spirit of the Kentucky Derby this edition is dedicated to Barbaro, winner of last year's Derby. He is sadly no longer with us, little popples, but he was full of spirit and fought to the end.
Barbaro
Horses are extremely intelligent, full of personality, and can be pranksters. They are sentimental towards people and places they are fond of. They know when its a race day and understand when they have won and are proud. They fight to win. So these are some pictures of Barbaro for you to enjoy so we can give him some love.

Well, let's get to the fashion that's inspired by all of this:

#1 This look was inspired by a cool mint julep and I tell you I could use one right now. This is fresh and lovely with beautiful accessories and lovely wearable hat. To die for earrings!

#3 This look is well put together and would work in the 1940's or in the now. Stand out in the crowd in this hat and keep yourself cool and chic with the fan and pretty pearls!

#4 Out the door, this one was, but she managed to throw together a cool look with aqua hues and a HOT hat with feathers, my favorite! (after fur, of course). Loving the strappy sandals...

#5 This little kitty is a copier but still managed to put together a fresh look with the best hat of the bunch. Its feathery, but not obnoxious, light, big, attention seeking, but for all the right reasons. This look could just carry you away... but that cuff would keep you grounded!

#6 Hello attitude. Wear the pants and the hat! Best of both worlds, I say. Creative and sexy.... Love how the bag replicates the texture of the bangles!
