The Last Hurrah of Summer: Going Out With a Very Large Hat
Dress Forever21 here, Fabulous Hat BCBG in Blue (on sale! here!), Necklaces (assorted), Shoes Alexander Wang (old), Bag Zara This weekend was absolutely lovely and unfortunately probably one of the last beautiful AND warm ones that we will have for some time here in the Pacific Northwest. It was made even more obvious by the fact that a new addition to everyone’s summer-y garb seemed to be a chunky knit or jacket draped around everyone’s arm or waist, including mine. In honor of Summer’s passing I had a fabulous time in an equally fabulous hat playing with even more white after Labor Day (loving that trend!) and straddling the line…

You see, earlier in the day I read the Style.com review of Victoria Beckham’s SS15 collection and she was applauded for reaching a new audience outside of her austere aesthetic through… florals. The infamous Miranda Priestley line popped into my head in a deadpan voice: “Florals, for Spring. Groundbreaking,” and with that all hope was lost. But wait! This is about Rag & Bone! A cherished designer duo that never fails to disappoint with wearable…

Ode to the Perfect Wear to (Insert Wedding Activity Here) Dress
Dress Tobi (here), Shoes Alexander Wang, Necklace Zara similar (here) Wedding Season. Labor Day tends to mark the pinnacle of wedding season as everyone rushes to proclaim their love before the seasons change. I am all for love and marriage and happiness (yay) but I must admit there is a dread that comes over me every time the season approached, the fear of what to wear to ALL THOSE EVENTS! I am not naive and know that I am not the only woman dealing with this difficulty throughout the season, one of my dear friends I dare say hasn’t spent a day of a weekend at home sans a Wedding…
