Happy Friday and if you’re a Louisvillian/Kentuckian, Happy Oaks Day! I’ve had this dress for awhile now, but hadn’t had a chance to style it here for the blog, but it seemed like the perfect dress for Oaks.
I love how bold the color is here and wanted to really play it up by letting it be the main focus of this look. I decided to do so by pairing this up with neutral pieces like my nude lace up flats and a slightly blingy, but mostly gold arm party.
I love this simple cream fascinator; this one sits on a headband versus the clip in option and then has tulle and feathers. I don’t like to go too oversized with hats or fascinators and this one stays on the daintier side.
And since it’s Friday, here’s some Friday Favorites:
- Erin gave me major skirt envy with this flowy, pleated pink number!
- My bedroom is in major need of an overhaul and if I ever get around to it, I definitely want to make these DIY gold foil pillows!
- Kelly’s super personal post on miscarriages and infertility is extremely well written and personable. While I’ve never dealt with either, I felt very choked up just reading her experience and knowing now that she’s super close to bringing a sweet babe into the world.
- Lifeguard Press has Kate Spade 2017 agendas available for pre-order and I’m LOVING the Caning option and that they have spiral options too this year! I said that this was the year that I was going to use my planner all the way through, but I had a terrible accident where my Vitamin Water accidentally opened while in my Longchamp and soaked said agenda….
- I loved the Kentucky Derby themed LIKEtoKNOW.it takeover that was hosted this week by Shelby and Beth!
- These pom pom sandals have me feeling some type of way, but I might try my hand at a DIY.
This is the very last Derby Days post {ahhhh!}; hope you have a great weekend, whether it be spent in the infield sipping on Mint Juleps or at home watching the races!
