Set the neighborhood abuzz by hosting your own Kentucky Derby Party. Opening day at the races might be the best excuse yet to play dress up in decidedly flamboyant attire and act all sophisticated. Including a HAT! I mean, how many opportunities do we ladies get to do that? The gents can come sporting linen or seersucker, with a great looking bow tie for a finishing touch. Of course we all know dressing up for a party 99% guarantees a fabulous time…

And that’s only half the fun! Be sure to set up a game to bet on the ponies, with a program and live broadcast of the races so guests can get caught up in the excitement. I think I see another cheesy trophy prize coming on…

Take a look at the grand details at this derby party at HWTM. The argyle pattern and rose details are perfect…
If I could make a dessert suggestion… go for the Derby Pie! Pecans, chocolate, and pastry in one delectable wedge. You can’t go wrong. This one is a beauty at shewearsmanyhats.com… Enjoy!
