Mad for Hats

A small town girl always needs to take a break - even though that means driving 4 hours to a bigger town like Austin, TX. My weekend there consisted of day-to-night concerts, frozen drinks, lots of walking, floppy hats, leather booties, denim shorts, and amazing food... otherwise known as SXSW.

South by Southwest is a music, film and interactive festival that happens once a year where people from all over the world come together to celebrate and take advantage of the amazing events happening around downtown Austin. Yes, I needed to take a break and sure I did. The best part of it? The careless/casual street style fashion with a mix of bohemian, grunge and rock and roll. Music definitely brings people together.

What was your favorite part of Spring Break?

Love,

Oh Spring break! Feels so different once you're out of school. It actually feels just like another week of the year, only that all stores, beaches and restaurants are packed with people for what I rather stay home with a Venti iced green tea latte with soy milk and a good movie. Yes, that's my updated spring break.

However, even out of college I'm still thinking of going to the beach; this white-on-white spring trend makes me feel fresh and clean, and it's the perfect excuse to get a tan. Another massive event taking place here in Texas this week is SXSW. Last year was a blast working with CollegeFashionista X Michaels, so this year I'll be on the other side of things.

What are your plans for SB? Whatever they are remember to be safe and feel fabulous!

Love,

Hello March! The month where spring begins and when pastel colors start hitting the streets. I'm not a lot into trends but there's a je ne sais quoi about Spring that I absolutely adore. Even though the tricky weather doesn't always let me wear my favorite pair of sandals, it's about playing with what you have from winter and summer and just mix and match all - period. 

As you can see the statement of this post are the coat and hat; simple yet stylish. I might say good-bye to my favorite pink coat once the heat settles in the RGV, but my hat well, you might see my hats... a lot! 

What's your favorite Spring staple?

Love,

S
