THE Kentucky Derby. The Fastest Two Minutes In Sports.
Now for those who haven't been, this is not your run of the mill horse race. Attendees range from your who's who sitting in the Millionaires Row, to college students from around the country partying it up in the infield. The common denominator, everyone is dressed to the nines.
The following is your style guide to this year's Kentucky Derby. Remember, that every look is topped off with a famous Mint Julep (just don't get one of those super expensive ones, the classic one tastes just fine and will get you plenty ready to "Have Another.")
For Guys - The Dapper
1) Seersucker Suit/Khaki Suit - Either of these suits is a safe bet, but from experience I can say it gets a bit rowdy so I wouldn't be rocking the most expensive suit you can find. Any suit that fits right will do just fine.
2) Bowtie - This staple of the derby is a must for any Derby-goer. My favorite is the vinevard vines derby collection. You just can't go wrong and you will be dressed to impressed.
3) Shoes - I'll keep this simple. Just go with classic sperry boat shoes and you will be comfortable, stylish, and ready to party all day long.
Classy will be posting her version for the classy ladies out there soon.
