I wish I'd had the entire photo of these ensembles, but I couldn't turn down the chance to use such a sassy photo. Also, it shows how his coat is coordinated to her dress AND hat, which is a subtle little touch. They manage to look put-together without being twee.
Mira and Christopher

This is from the day before. Might need a wee hoik, but honestly, these two were extremely well turned-out all weekend.
Rickie Fowler

Oh, RICKIE. The horses on the jacket! So amusing. My kids used to mess up his name and call him Freaky Fowler, and that's all I can hear now when I see him. He used to play on Sundays in screaming head-to-toe orange (hence Dylan's obsession with him), and he still does a variation on that, but... basically, this is not a man who is afraid of color, and I love that about him. This is some color-wheel batshittery that has found its correct home.
Gary Barnidge

Gary is a tight end for the Cleveland Browns, and I love him for trying, but this doesn't really fit and the Gucci kicks go with something else entirely. Presumably, Gary is just wondering what drafting Notre Dame's DeShone Kizer will do for his fantasy football value, and so he didn't have time to focus on clothes.
Lorenzo Mauldin

Another NFLer, looking signifnicantly better tailored. I actually think this is pretty fun. The tie, wait for it, ties it all together.
Josh Henderson

The Dallas reboot was not a success, particularly, except in my eyes. So he will always be John Ross Ewing to me. I think John Ross should've investigated some proper dress shoes. The screaming white sneakers feel so Bieber to me.
Stephen Amell, Cassandra Jean

I applaud her hat game.
Joey Fatone

Oh, JOEY. This is SO on the nose for the Run for the Roses. There's a faux reality show on POP with Joey McIntyre of NKOTB, and in one clip in the ads, Donnie Walhberg guests and warns Joey not to go up against Fatone because Fatone is "a national treasure," and I might agree.
Laura Bell Bundy

ALSO massively on-the-nose, and I ALSO don't mind it. She looks gorgeous.
Giada in Dolce & Gabbana

We saw this dress on Sienna Miller last year, and it worked better on her. That hat makes this ensemble look like so much WORK.
Robin Meade

I gather Robin is an HLN anchor, and she WENT FOR IT. I actually love it. There's something undeniably cheesy about it, and for the US's annual attempt at making millinery happen, I think it's divine. You could plonk her down at Royal Ascot or the Melbourne Cup and she'd fit right in.
Justin Hartley and Chrishell Stause

I would have liked this better if the tablecloth had been tailored to the dress underneath, or if the dress underneath had been tailored to the asymmetry of the tablecloth. Still, they look fancy. Fun fact: On AMC, Chrishell played the daughter of Janet From Another Planet who shoved her twin down a well, and Trevor, the husband Janet then moved in on. I miss soaps. Chrishell was great on it.
Jerry Rice

I mean, all the bonus points for wearing what I assume is a Super Bowl ring. That's flashy as hell, in a way I appreciate.
J.T. Thomas

Another football player. They look great. I want to wear her hat on the beach this summer.
Jill Goodacre and Harry Connick. Jr.

This outfit is not perfection, unlike the gum she once offered Chandler Bing in an ATM vestibule.
Beau and Wendy Bridges

ANOTHER good hat, and his tie is funky.
Susan Geston and Jeff Bridges

I just wish Jeff were wearing socks, because the rest of it is excellent. And Susan's hat! I've exclaimed over so many in this slideshow, but sincerely, we are not known as a strong formal hat culture and I'm so pleased to see everyone bringing some head-suit A-Game here.
