Today was absolutely stunning and quite a pleasant switch from yesterday! The sun decided to come out and that made it perfect to wear one of my favorite, forgotten accessories: my two-toned floppy hat. Today was a perfect fit for it because it wasn’t a brutal scorcher, but it was a little windy, so that made fashion savvy look a little difficult. I’ve had this hat for almost three years now and I always forget it exists in my closet. I personally think it looks more suitable for fall, so I typically decide against wearing it, but lesson learned today because I received a lot of compliments, so that was fun. Side note: hats are entirely more fun than sunglasses. Another side note: when you truly feel like you have nothing to wear, revisit the back of your closet.

Adding a bolder accessory really gives your outfit a completely different look…obviously, I mean what would be the purpose for it? Had I decided against wearing my hat (which is what always happened in the past) then this look today would have been really plain and boring, and face it, that’s not what fashion is for.

Like I’ve stated before, branching out, especially with fashion can be so thrilling. Even if you start with a simple hat, it will give you a sense of individuality and confidence, and who doesn’t love that? Accessories are a great place to start because you add a piece of jewelry, a new bag or even a favorite, forgotten floppy hat. So, on the next sunny day (fingers crossed for tomorrow) instead of grabbing sunglasses, grab a hat and give this look a try (and you won’t even need to mess with you hair!)
