Rat Pack


After realizing how much love my parrot fedora was getting, I decided to switch it up with the mint green, also Eugenia Kim for Target. The black sequin fedora is currently sitting on a shelf in my closet, crying.
The list:
-white tee, H&M
-black pleated skirt, Club Monaco
-puffy shouldered jean jacket, Calvin Klein
-patent peeptoes, Lulu Guiness
-flower pendant necklace, DIY'd from a vintage brooch
-mint green fedora, Eugenia Kim for Target
Sometimes, it is all about seemingly simple clothing and standout accessories. I knew I wanted to wear this hat, and for the first wear I wanted it to shine. Pairing it with black and white was intuitive, based on the striping detail, but I used the fun pleated black skirt to keep it from getting boring. Though this skirt can be machine washed, the pleats are no joke and I leave it to the experts.
 Like the skirt, the jean jacket has details that take it from basic to fun. The mid-calf length seemed to call for peeptoes, so I paired it with the bow-adorned Lulus (the first heels I ever wore on the blog or to work, way back in October.)

The jacket is amazing! I love the pleated skirt too, I fear them though because of the ironing but they do look nice. The fedora is so chic on you. =)

Cute! I can not pull off hats to save my life, but you look great. I really like the cut of that jean jacket--it's versatile but still unique.
