Saying goodbye to April and hello to May means we have 31 new opportunities. Among those opportunities are some pretty amazing fashion events. We have gathered some perfect ways to celebrate almost every holiday this month. The fact that the Kentucky Derby and Cinco de Mayo fall on the same day should encourage you to put on your best outfit to sip a julep and a margarita.  Consequently, may the fourth and fashion be with you this month.
