Sweater: c/o H&M (similar) || Pants: Gap || Booties: Forever 21 (save or splurge) || Purse: Michael Kors || Fedora: My dad's (very similar here and shop some of my favorites below)

My dad worked in New York City for most of his life, and I remember him coming home with this custom-made fedora one day a very long time ago. I called it his Indiana Jones hat and would often make fun of him for wearing it out on the weekends or when he went to run errands. Back then I didn't see it as cool or trendy, but one of those things that your parents would wear out in public that you thought looked so incredibly dorky (okay, so maybe these were my teenage years). But it looks like the joke's on me since fedoras have become a highly coveted accessory over the past few seasons...and here I am wearing what I used to make fun of on my fashion blog. What's that saying? Everything old is new again? ;)

Shop fedoras:

  2. I love how things we thought were geeky show up later in life. I used to think sleeveless collared shirts were so weird. And now I'm wearing one under a sweater. Go figure.

  3. Gorgeous all neutral look - it's completely unfair how good you look in all kinds of hats...fedoras, beanies, you name it!

  4. This is so cute! And I totally understand on the "what once was geeky is now cool" thing! My grandfather used to wear adorable old man hats and I used to make fun of him, but now I want one!
