Kentucky Derby


The "greatest two minutes in sports" takes place this Saturday, May 5! While the race itself is certainly exciting, the really important thing is the fashion. How fun would it be to wear on those big hats and sip on the Woodland Reserve $1,000 Mint Julep - this year's accompanied by Vineyard Vines silk lining? I think pretty in pink outfit would be perfect the big day. What would you wear?

 Pink Cluster Earrings from Bridier Baubles, $20

Millie Hat from Emma Graham, $65

Kingston Clutch from J.McLaughlin in Champagne, $175

Exum Wedge from Jack Rogers, $198

Aleesa Dress from Lilly Pulitzer, $238

Delight of the Day 5/3


Today's Delight of the Day is from Jack Rogers - a pair of monogrammed sandals, $158! Every prep loves her Jack Rogers, and this personal touch plus seven color options makes this the perfect pair. I also love this as a Mother's Day Gift!

Ashton Dating Video










As a newly single girl, I'm again on the hunt for the perfect man. As my followers may remember, one of my closest guy friends responded to my news by saying, "Kim, you're not getting any younger. You need to find a man." Gee. Thanks. So when I heard that Ashton Kutcher is again on the market and using an online dating website, I figured - what's the harm? I went to www.worldwidelovers.com and granted Facebook access to my page to see if I'd be matched with my high school love (Ashton, obviously - not that weirdo I dated for a year and a half). Boy, was I surprised!



If you haven't already seen these videos, you need to check them out immediately. Ashton's made up as four totally ridiculous characters , all with their own endearing qualities.  Nigel's your typical vegan, hippie kinda guy. Not exactly my type. Darl's a diva and would probably be a lot of fun to shop with. Rag's a Snooki fan, so we won't work. With my luck, Swordfish is the only one who would be interested in me, but I think I'll hold out for Ashton. Regardless, these are all hilarious!

Delight of the Day 5/2


Today's Delight of the Day is the Anchor Charm Leather Bracelet from Gorjana, $45. How freaking adorable is this?! Plus, I found a coupon code online for 30% off - LUCKYBREAKS1. That brings this pretty bracelet down to $31.50! Enjoy!

Gifts for Grads


It’s that time of year again! Seniors are about to embark upon a journey in the real world. Sure the economy is in a bad place and both political parties care more about defeating the other than actually fixing anything, but it’s not all bad. At least they get gifts, right? By that logic, I think you owe it to your favorite grads to get them extra preppy presents to help them conquer the work place or grad school. So here are some of my favorite picks, ranging from under $25 to $250.
$25 and UnderIf you’re graduating too, this category is for you. Your friends understand that you’re dealing with student loans and finding a job, so they don’t expect you to spend a lot of money. Additionally, this is a good idea if the grad is your cousin, your boyfriend’s/girlfriend’s sibling,etc. This category is also really good if you want to mix and match several options! 
Monogram Scarf from Marley Lilly, $17.99
Brass Anchor Key Fob from Rugby, $24.50
Starboard Bangle from Swell Caroline, $25
$55 and Under
This is your middle of the range category – containing everything from a fun key chain to a new iPhone case. Again, you can definitely mix and match this with one of the less expensive options for above.
Stripe Belt from Rugby, $59.50
$100 and Under
This price range is perfect for your significant other, your brother, sister, or even your best friendYour grad won’t be able to spoil herself as much as she’s used to, so why not do it for her?
Social Primer Reversible Bowtie from Brooks Brothers, $65
Turnlock Skinny Bracelet from Marc Jacobs, $68
Striped Logo Stud Earrings from Tory Burch, $68*
(*This is an updated link, as the earrings sold out on Shopbop since this morning! Better order them before they’re gone!)
Seersucker Clutch from Lilly Pulitzer, $88
Kappa Kappa Gamma Tote from Vineyard Vines, $95
(You can get this in any sorority print or even in a lot of school’s prints. I still buy all kinds of Kappa stuff even though I graduated, so don’t worry about that. Plus, the school option is great if they’re going to grad school!)
$250 and Under
This category is top of the line. As a recent grad myself, I would have loved one of these gifts from my grandparents or parents. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t have expected it, but I would have loved it!
Folding Wayfarers (RB 4105) from Ray-Ban
(I personally own these, and I LOVE them. They are the best sunglasses I’ve ever owned!)
Robinson Zip Wallet from Tory Burch, $195
Exum Wedge Sandals from Jack Rogers, $198
Oversized Rose Gold Watch from Michael Kors, $250
