Larsa Pippen: Photo Of The Day – Dressed for The Kentucky Derby

Style + Life + Fashion’s Photo of The Day goes to Larsa Pippin.  She’s seen “dressed to the nines” for the Kentucky Derby brunch, wearing a black and white tea dress with fuchsia accessories.

In my opinion, the hat she’s wearing is the perfect size to accentuate her beautiful features!  Larsa was dressed classy and stylish for this annual event.  It appears that her handbag is Yve Saint Laurent – photos are taken from Instagram.
