6th Annual Haute Tea Luncheon

Fashions for the 6th Annual Haute Tea luncheon
Let’s be honest: you’ve always wanted an excuse to wear one of those gorgeous oversized Kentucky Derby hats you see in the movies. In Miami, it’s not particularly easy to find an occasion for such a piece. But at this year’s 6th Annual Haute Tea Luncheon benefiting the Diabetes Research Institute, a statement hat isnt just fitting — it’s the name of the game.

Hosted by The Young Society of Love and Hope at The St. Regis Bal Harbour, this garden-themed event will feature formal tea service, delicious food, a fashion show by Neiman Marcus Bal Harbour, a silent auction, and a hat contest judged by popular local fashion bloggers — meaning you’ll need something extra special to stick out in the crowd.

This elegant peach-colored fascinator is perfect for the girl who wants something eye-catching that won’t overpower her ensemble. With soft feathers and a satin trim, this slip-on headband will make you feel ultra girly and sophisticated all day long.
