Look Book: Bowler Hats & Pretty Little Bows

Aug 2, 2011

Outfit Details:
Hat - Thrifted
Glasses - Vintage
Shorts - Old Navy
Shoes - H&M
Lip colour - (Chanel: Gabrielle #19), Lip Liner - (Sephora Real Red #20)

I was absolutely thrilled to receive & style this adorable top from the kind folks at Threadcase. I'm just smitten with the sweet little bows, and not to mention I have such a weakness for sheer, a-line cami's. They never disappoint and transition beautifully in my wardrobe. I love wearing them with pants, vintage flare jeans, or a fave skirt -SO adorable!

Did everyone have a great weekend? We just had a long weekend here in BC, coupled with fabulously hot weather (hence the shorts). I seriously don't want it to end! Hubs and I spent most of our weekend enjoying the great & gorgeous outdoors, we visited with friends, and hubs even surprised me with fresh lobster -delicious! I love when I don't have to cook!!

And speaking of the Mr, we will be celebrating our 13 years together this month (amazing). Prepare yourselves for at least one mushy post! Alright friends, wishing you a fabulous day, and be sure to pop over to Threadcase too. I guarantee you'll be swooning. They have some seriously adorable things. xx veronika

    It was a wonderful weekend, wasn't it? And it looks like you absolutely dressed the part. Adding a bowler hat to your sunny summer look was the perfect choice for keeping your beautiful face in the shade and highlighting that gorgeous red lipcolour. What shade are you wearing, if I may ask for the secret? Looking forward to seeing you this weekend. And early congratulations to you and Martin!

    well pretty Veronika, don't you look especially British today! i'd tip my own hat to you right now over the adorbs factor of this snap happy shoot....but i'm kinda still in my robe, pre-shower so that'll just have to wait until the next time we see each other. gosh i hope it's soon too, thanks so much for all the wonderful words you left me. you know, you actually remind me of Carole from that vid. same chic style and darling dancing eyes!!!

    your top is the cutest darn thing, so airy and light with sweet pattern and bow band. um, Threadcase will most def be visited by me; looks like they've got awesome stuff.

    i'm so glad you and Martin had the best long weekend complete with lobster! wow, haven't had that dish in a while, you're so lucky he's such a chefster : )

    13 years? oh you two, congrats and much loves!!!! mush away, looking forward to it. ♥

I wouldn't have thought to have styled it with the bowler hat and it totally made the outfit and really added some edge to it, though the whole thing is so chic. You look beautiful as ever of course, and congrats on 13 years! Insane! I for one an looking forward to the mushy post. Maybe a little photo montage of your time together? yes thank you that'd be perfect.
