What I Wore: Bluegrass Races

My hometown is legend for our spectacular horse racing track. Keeneland is a landmark and social gathering mecca. Everyone who's anyone attends the spring and fall meets. Races go on all day and people dress from their finest dress to their favorite jeans. My friends and I usually go more casual because we go in the later hours of the day. We wear skirts and dresses but make it appropriate to go straight out to the night's dinner date or party.









After we left Keeneland, we went for ice cream and then to a party. It was a great time and my outfit was easy to run around in for my playful Friday :) Summer is all about comfort!



(Clockwise)
1. Versace VE4174 Oversize Square Sunglasses, Spring 2010  There are a few investment pieces I will allow myself to splurge on. Sunglasses are always one of them! From these I have definitely gotten my money's worth. 
2. Mossimo Draped Challis Dress, $25  
3. Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Parfum, $90   I have never gotten more compliments than when I wear this perfume! I apply it when I get out of the shower onto my neck, wrists, and and once in the air which I walk through. I alwayssssss wear this when I'm going to be around a lot of people. It is enticing and inviting!
4. Frye Bruce Pull On, $268  These are ADORABLE, but not the actual ones I wore! Mine are my dad's olddd ones with no name brand or serial number! The insides are falling apart but I rock them every year to music festivals! I'll throw in a pic down yonder...
5. Betsey Johnson Lotsa Luck Frame bag, $392  Are you in love with this bag or what?!
6. American Eagle Square Basic Leather Belt, $25  This belt will take you a long way! Throw it on with jean shorts, push it to the side with ripped jeans, or cinch your waist by wrapping it! To get the wrap, push the belt hook middle piece to one side of the buckle and pull the belt through, wrap it around twice and let the end hand down. 





Those are the boots I was talking about. Oh, and those cool reflection glasses are my friends which she got at target last summer! One of my favorite things about summer is taking items from previous seasons or past lives and utilizing them in multiple looks. Always remember: staples like classy glasses, vintage brown boots, and a signature scent will carry you further than investing in the latest trends. *Bisous*

Love,
