a white sport coat

tgif everyone!! i have had a long long week and can't wait to sleep in this weekend! i love white in the summer in any shape or form. you'll be seeing alot of whites in future posts. it is just really an easy and classic colour (or is that non-colour) for the hot days of summer. 

those who know me know that i don't wear hats - i've bought them wishing and willing them to work on my head and never worn them. i always thought i didn't have a hat head, but turns out i was wrong. i was just looking for the wrong shapes for my face! this one was from zara men, when i went with mr. P on his man-makeover shopping trip. 

my bestie K who got a chic fedora at j crew factory for a steeeal and she rocks it like nobody's business.  her fedora profile pic makes me think i can work a hat. jessy at little dust princess styled hers wonderfully too. they inspired me to find one for my noggin'. 

do you wear hats - or avoid them?

  1. I was the exact same way with hats, and I, too, just found a straw fedora in the men's section (of H&M) that works perfectly. Apparently we just have manly heads? ;)

  2. I occasionally wear a dark brown straw fedora in summer. It certainly helps protect my fair skin! If I am at a horse race I def wear a wide-brimmed straw hat

  3. I haven't worn hats in a while. I love white in the summer too. I delayed buying a pair of white pants when they went on sale and now they're sold out. I'm hoping to get a white blazer once the summer sales get in full swing.

  7. I definitely need to start buying white for summer! Everyone is wearing it and looking amazing! The blazer looks amazing on you, P! And I'm like you- never thought I could be a hat-head. But last week at Target, I tried on 10000000 fedoras until I found one that I THINK looks ok. I think I will try it out somewhere low-key, like the beach to try to get used to it. I seriously love them on other people and it looks perfect on you. But everything does, really.

  8. Yet another super chic outfit! You have such a fabulous style. I LOVE those striped shorts! I'm the same with hats...I have maybe 10, but NEVER wear them. I really should start.
