More Than Just Hats: 500 Reasons To Look Head-To-Toe Hot For The Derby

The main reason we secretly love the horse races? It's our one occasion to whip out a fabulous topper (okay, maybe that's not exactly a secret). That said, we're pretty stoked for tomorrow's festivities. Santa Anita Derby Days are in full swing — and alongside the prestigious races, a 5K run-walk, and the chance to win $500 are going down tomorrow, too.

All eyes will supposedly be on the horse races, but the event’s Best Dressed Contest is a real head-turner as well. Two lucky winners (one gal and one guy), will walk away with $500 gift cards to Westfield Santa Anita and possibly even more importantly, with the title of “Best Dressed” at an event that’s all about bringing your fashion A-game.

So, start laying out your outfits and start practicing your “shocked” winner’s face. This Derby Day, there will be some serious competition — both on and off the track!

When: Saturday, April 7, gates open at 10 a.m.
Where: Santa Anita Park, 285 West Huntington Drive (at Holly Avenue); 626-574-7223.
