Hats Off to the Preakness!

So our Local Area Baltimore Chevy Dealers & WBAL TV were kind enough to let the Baltimore Chevy Girls experience Preakness 2011! It's been such a fun project to be a part of. Even though I was born & raised in Baltimore- this was my first time at Preakness. What is it known for? Well, besides horses? Hats girleens! Every where I looked, there were hats galore! These lovely ladies were rocking it out & posed with fellow Chevy Girl Lara in her very own commissioned Maryland themed hat!




Here Lara & I are with WBAL TV's Lisa Robinson (L) & Mindy Basara in the yellow hat. We were interviewed about being Chevy Girls on the Go & on a live tv segment! I love this picture, since you can tell Lara & I don't normally wear hats- as we're struggling to see out of ours! In fact, when I got to see myself in the tv segment- you really could only see my mouth most of the time, as my hat was trying to swallow me whole!
This was probably my most favorite fascinator I saw- the photograph doesn't do it justice. It just worked & though it was very artistic- it didn't overwhelm her. The fascinator was by Christine Moore from Hats in the Belfry.



As luck would have it, I found out that Hats in the Belfry had a booth at Preakness so I got to try on my very own Christine Moore fascinator! If this one had been in black instead of navy I seriously would have scooped it up. But, then again maybe it would be to much to wear to work- what do you think? :)


This creation looked almost like a confection! Doesn't she look like a doppelganger of Kristen Dunst? Regardless she was fluffy & fabulous in that hat!


This woman was working it! Bedecked & bedazzled, this vision in purple said she scored her entire ensemble from JC Penny late the night before- who knew?! Don't worry horse lovers out there, I'm promise I'll post more on the actual race, but you know moi- fashion first!




Peace. Love. Lipgloss. M

  1. So jealous! I haven't been to Preakness in years! And the last time I went it was not such a classy affair :)
