On Saturday, when a collision of cultural celebrations — the Kentucky Derby and Cinco de Mayo — had people sporting big hats and sombreros all over town, one person’s style statement definitely topped all others.

Every witch way.

Favorite color: Blue

Style mantra: Sometimes people forget to get dressed before you start drinking, so dressing sober is key. Although there are plenty of blacks and grays in my wardrobe, as an attorney, I feel I should be allowed to have fun with style.

Style analysis: Denver has a wide and diverse aesthetics spectrum. Some people go for shock and awe, while others play it more subtle and conservative. Whether you’re suiting up for a day at the office or preparing to cast a spell on the town, remember to dress before drinking. And to rock those black boots.
