I cried when I saw The James – and clicked to find it was gone! Monrowe NYC is a black-owned headwear company that makes The James and when I happened upon it in midnight blue I knew I had to have it….but no haps because it was ‘out of stock’. I kept searching the site and found a great runner-up in the Johnny – and this one comes in winter white, so just-in-time for fall to rock with all of my sweaters
I spent last week on a #roadtrip down the Pacific Coast Highway ~ I drove from San Fran to LA and stopped along the way at a few spots in Cambria and Santa Barbara. By the time I made it to LA and shopped on etsy, I found this GORG denim turban by Patricia Morales. My girlfriend convinced me to scoop it as it was perfect for my pool relaxation while in Santa Barbara (I stayed at the Kimpton Goodland).
After returning from some R&R in Cancun, I realized I am missing a key element in my beach vacay repertoire – stylish headwear! Yeah – I have the straw bendable fedora from Athleta but when you are moving between the beach and pool, and evenings out you’re going to want more options. Here are a few more selections I saw flapping around in the pool and, needless to say, I’ve added a baseball cap and headband to my mix! My choices
There are lots of options but I’m partial to the fedora. This one by J.Crew comes in white, natural and navy blue. As you look forward to your vacation, aren’t you thinking of a beach and sand? At least some sun, right? After this winter and spring? Be smart and protect your greatest asset – your face! You can choose a floppy hat, fedora or baseball hat – I choose fedora because it’s the best of both worlds….protection and style.
The brand is We Are Owls. The printed cashmere and silk scarf is on sale at The Outnet now (through Sunday). The colors are bright but not overpowering or gaudy. The weight is just right to wear now or as you hit the travels for spring (which I hope is coming like yesterday). And the length means you can wrap it around and do a few cool things with it. Other fabulous scarf options are available but this is probably
I saw. I oogled. I debated. I purchased. I’m happy…. This burgundy Alexa fedora is going to see more airtime than a little bit this fall…and I’m not the only one. Fashion insider, WhoWhatWear agrees!
If you live on the East Coast then, simply put, you need an umbrella. We’ve been getting pummeled with rain and not the springtime mist but sheets and downpours. I was doing pretty good not getting caught in the rain until last Friday ~ I had broken my trusty umbrella and never replaced it…..dumb, I know. Well I came home that night and hit the internet looking for something that wouldn’t make the rain as horrible as I believe it
