68°F6:40 AM With so many fabulous Derby eve events to attend, a fashionista has to make some tough choices. This year I decided to attend the 24th Annual Barnstable Brown Gala and the first Unbrideled Eve party. Both events were star studded and full of fashion finds and crimes. I’d have to say from a collective sum Barnstable Brown Gala had some of the best dressed guests however both events were a fabulous way to spend the night before Derby.
