And so we didn’t. Kristin made hers…
And, I made mine…
On our first evening at the GE Momsperience we were treated to hat making led by the lovely ladies from Dee’s Crafts. What a treat.
It was fun to get to know everyone’s personal style and flair right off the bat!
Word on the street or at least in the 21c Museum Hotel is that later on that evening two crazy hat ladies were caught in the art gallery mixing with the artwork!
Then, on the following evening all the lovely blogging ladies were able to enjoy a dinner and a bit of horse racing history at Churchill Downs.
This was our first time at Churchill Downs and we made a promise to come back and watch a race some day.
Then we landed in our beds ~ tired out from painting the town red!
Here’s to Fancy Hats!

















I love this! It’s on my bucket list to go to a Kentucky Derby wearing a fancy hat
The hats were so much fun!
Very creative and fanciful! Love the hats!

so..did Mr Red penguin make it back with you in the suitcase?! or did you get busted!
We love hats and we love the derby! HATagories has so many great choices for derby veterans or first timers. We carry designers from around the world like Vivien Sheriff and Philip Treacy, premier royal designers in England, to Helen Kaminski from Australia, and Christine Moore and Louise Green from the good old U.S. of A. You can also shop by price. We understand not everyone wants to spend big bucks on a hat so check out our selection of “HATagories Hats” for a more affordable yet fashionable choice. Enjoy the races!
