Yesterday, I put on my big hat and a sundress for a few Derby parties! First, we went to the Union League Club’s party. While they’re technically co-ed, I think there are more men in the ULC, and so I think of it as the men’s version of Junior League.
They had some traditional Derby dishes like deviled eggs and macaroni and cheese. I’m not sure if pulled pork (that’s what the slider is) is a traditional Derby food, but it was damn good. And yes, that is a seersucker tablecloth. If I were a tablecloth person, I would totally want that one. I saved room because my second stop was at Ashley and Bo’s Derby party, and I knew they’d have an epic spread.
I was not wrong.
So what’s the next sundresses-and-cocktails holiday?

I'm really kind of bummed that my friends don't celebrate the wonder that is Derby Day. I'd love an excuse to get ridiculously prepped out for a day!!
