A few years back, I was starting to get spring fever so I went to buy something “springy.” School was getting in the way and an online impulse buy was looking like my best option to curb the burning desire for a shopping spree.
In search of a spring dress, I found a super cute one on a random discount shopping site called Tobi, and just before checking out—I have no idea what came over me—I threw a fedora hat in my shopping “bag.” What the heck!? In my defense, the model looked super cute wearing it and for some reason, in that moment, a fedora purchase sounded like just the daring purchase I needed to spice up my otherwise dull spring day.
But let me tell you…Best. Purchase. Ever. It was so fun to style! I ended up sporting it all spring and into summer. It worked with everything! Casual outfits…short dresses, long dresses, complimented different kinds of sunglasses nicely anddd if I must list a practical component, it may or may not have saved my Irish skin a few extra freckles (you’re welcome mom!).
Ok, so my point here is spring hats are the BOMB. They’re so fun! And if you need any more convincing, these photos of our model, Clare, should do it.
She had a California-chic-meets-European-model look going as we strolled through the Del Mar Plaza. Her hats made me think of a European spring break and the beachy jewelry added a gorgeous twist of California that brought me right back home.
Her hat + the casual style of her poncho mixed with the classic elegance of the Rebel Refined Gold Stick Necklace with Crystals and the Rebel Designs bracelets got fashion juices flowing. In my checkout bag now please!
IN. LOVE.
Happy Spring!
