Upstairs Circus http://upstairscircus.com/wp CREATE, DRINK & BE MERRY Mon, 17 Jun 2013 18:55:58 +0000 en-US hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 Derby Hat Roundup http://upstairscircus.com/wp/2013/04/05/derby-hat-roundup/ http://upstairscircus.com/wp/2013/04/05/derby-hat-roundup/#comments Fri, 05 Apr 2013 18:12:37 +0000 UpstairsCircus http://upstairscircus.com/wp/?p=1823 Every year, we attend a great fundraiser in Denver called “Denver Derby.” Basically, thousands of people get together, dressed in their most fetching Spring wear, watch the Kentucky Derby horse race on big screens and support the Sean Ranch Lough Memorial Foundation.

We’ve got our tickets and we are planning on going once again!

Now the question is: What to wear? More specifically, what to wear on my head?

Below are links and an image of some of the most fetching hats I found. It’s not easy to find a good derby hat; hopefully this can help get you started!

As a side note- keep in mind that I am a minimalist and like fascinators over floppy brimmed hats, so my roundup my be biased (as I am sure you can see!).

Enjoy!
