Hats!!

C5bEb20C60750fA4__profileAs the weather waivers and is deciding where it is going to settle, I’m already getting my hats out. Not that I need a weather excuse to take them out. I have always been a fan of hats as an all-day accessory piece. I would never do a baseball cap but in my years I have experimented with many kinds of hats. In middle school I did the newsboy hat in tweed and cotton, in high school I have tried the fedora and the beanie but fell in love with the knitted beret. My mother and grandmother have both knitted me many berets in assorted colors and patterns that I wear with my hair down to add a little urban funk to my outfit. Hats are the ultimate statement pieces because people notice your head/face automatically when they see you. I understand that people use excuses to stray from hats because they claim they look bad in them but there are so many options of hats out there is bound to be a style for everyone. Even if the weather hasn’t decided what temperature it wants to be yet, you should all start to get your hats out today!

Fur is So Delightful

bbfurcoatfurpillboxhatDuring this holiday season and throughout the rest of winter, here in Baltimore, it will be quite frigid.  Tights, coats, scarves, hats, and gloves are necessities.  What I absolutely love about this cold weather, is the fact that it is finally time for fur!  You don’t have to be attending a lavish party to wear fur.  It’s made in an array of forms, so that it is acceptable in a multitude of places.  Fur vests are great to pair with jeans or a skirt to be more dressy.  Fur pillbox hats are so comfortable and look fabulous with solid colored coats.  Short fur jackets are even more acceptable in a wider range of places than fur coats perhaps.  If you want to be a little more subtle while wearing fur, fur gloves or fur boots will definitely do the trick.  For Christmas, my mom (queen of fur) got me a pair of black fox fur ear muffs (they make fur everything).  And if you aren’t into wearing real fur, faux fur is just as nice…no one will ever know.  For myself, whether heading downtown to the Hippodrome to see a play, or walking around to numerous museums, shops, and restaurants, fur keeps me warm and always is an important piece of my outfit.  So when the weather outside is frightful, fur is oh so delightful!
