Kentucky Derby Fashion

"If you don't wear a hat to the Kentucky derby, you'll feel like a woman who wears jeans to a little black dress party."-Sheila Nobles of C.K. Nobles, official millinery designer for the Kentucky Derby Museum at Churchill Downs. Perch a hat on your head and prepare, Saturday is the day for the Mint Juleps, Southern Charm, and "The Most Exciting Two Minutes In Sports."

Colorful, flamenco dancers, tacos, sangria, mariachi bands, and tropical cocktails with cute little umbrellas. Being a fan of all the above, Cinco de Mayo is basically a staycation-type holiday I look forward to every year. Not to mention, the Midwestern weather is typically warmer and more ideal to enjoy a margarita on a patio, officially announcing that nicer days are here to stay. Here are 5 fashionable looks to get you inspired for your Cinco de Mayo celebration.
