As the sun shines on Churchill Downs, it illuminates restless horses in the starting gates and excited crowds with hundreds of thousands of brilliant hats. And winking in the sunlight – gold, diamonds, gemstones and more – radiant pieces of jewelry that folks have donned just for the Kentucky Derby. These treasures aren’t coy, either, but festive and shining statements which stand out rather boldly. And to celebrate the most exciting two minutes in sports (and all that gorgeous jewelry), I’ve gone through Yelton’s extensive collections and selected pieces that reflect all the exuberance and vivace of the Kentucky Derby.
