High Heels and Training Wheels: Fedorable

Fedorable

Happy Wednesday lovelies! The weather here is amazing! After the beginning of "spring" being in the 40s, I am ecstatic to see it finally arrive! I was sweating and I was loving it! No, seriously. I would not go back to that cold, dreary weather for anything! We got to spend the whole day outside scootering, blowing bubbles and playing baseball. And I got to wear my new hat! Yeah!


My inspiration came from a couple of looks that I mashed together

Summertime!


My take:












Shirt: Old Navy 
Cargo Skinnies: American Eagle
Sandals: Tommy Hilfiger
Necklace: Walmart 
Earrings: Target/From my sister 
Fedora: Meijer 
Bracelet: Walmart 


It felt wonderful to wear actual Spring clothes! I got this hat at Meijer...like the grocery store Meijer. That is one of my biggest tips when you're trying to save money and shop on a budget; shop in unexpected places! Yes, there is a lot more looking and hunting before you actually find that gem. But, it makes it all the more special when you do. Ask any thrifter, the hunt is part of the thrill. It's like finding treasure! Meijer isn't thrifting but it's good prices and if you look, you can find that one awesome hat.


Oh yeah, and this happened on the way to dance class...








That's my girl! This video sums up her personality. She is a major source of entertainment for me. I have no idea where half the things that fly out of her mouth came from! Haven't decided if that's a good or bad thing haha

    I couldn't agree more about the weather! I'm loving the sweating and "worm parties" the little guy and I have been having in the back yard as we dig for the little wigglers!

  9. I love those cargo skinnies you're wearing. And I always feel awesome when I wear a fedora. (I have two!) And you shop at Meijer? I hardly ever hear that. I live near the home of Meijer so it's huge around where we are but I know its only spread to a few states

    1. Honestly, I usually forget about Meijer! We have one right near our house but I don't visit nearly as much as I should. Wouldn't have found my $10 hat otherwise! :)

    1. Thanks Abby! I'm finally realizing "recreating" an outfit doesn't mean it has to be the exact same...it's fun to put your own spin on it!
