Although the Kentucky Derby is going to look and feel a little different this year, I'm just happy it's happening. It's a welcome return to normal for the Kentuckiana area and will bring a big boost to the local economy this weekend. The biggest event in the state was sidelined during its usual week last year, with the horses eventually running without spectators on Labor Day weekend 2020.
This is my first ever Kentucky Derby so of course I had to track down the picture perfect Derby dress. Thanks to my friends at That Cute Little Shop in the Paddock Shops, I got to play dress up and try on a number of outfits. Which one did I pick? Stay tuned to WAMZ's socials to find out!
