Today is March 16, which means you have seven weeks until Derby Weekend. Here’s what else is on the calendar: Easter, Spring Break, and Mother’s Day. Lots of occasions where you are going to need an outfit. Not trying to give you an anxiety attack, but maybe think about putting this fashion show on your radar!
The Derby Fashion Show at Westport Village is Thursday, March 22 from 5:30-7:30pm at Summer Classics. This is a great way to see what every store has to offer. Better yet, if you like what you see, all the stores will be open after the show for you to shop. Tickets are $40 and include hors d’oeuvres, beverages, valet parking and, for the first 50 that arrive, there are even swag bags. If you would like more information or would like to buy a ticket to this show, please click here.
Allow me to dangle a carrot in front of you. StyleBlueprint is giving away a $500 gift card to Westport Village and this includes two free tickets to the Derby Fashion Show. The gift card includes all the retailers and restaurants in Westport Village. Best of all, it’s free to sign up. Sign up here. If you need help spending that $500, I’m happy to assist you in any way!
I got a sneak peek of some of the fashions that will be at the show and it was all I could do not buy them. In fact, I purposely left my wallet in the car. They can’t sell it until after the show anyway, right??
