[time to put the beanies away]

Hi there... how's your tues going everyone?
today i thought i'd share a mini spring/summer "goal" of mine... to wear more hats!
i LOVE wearing them.  even if i'm not having a bad hair day:)  they always add a little extra fun to any outfit {oh, and make getting ready in the morning go way faster due to the fact i have to do nothing with my hair}
what made me think of this out of the blue?  well, i was super obsessed with beanies this winter, and am still trying pulling them off here at the end of april.  i wore one yesterday and it was SO hot!  it's not like freezing raining weather here anymore, so when it's 75 outside, a wool beanie is NOT the best choice.  trust me on this one and don't try it.  so i thought to myself, lauren, you need some cute summer hats that won't cause you to overheat.
hopefully i look as chic as these ladies in the process::

i found one at target the other day that was super cute... mint green with a black and white striped trim, but then i thought if i bought it, i'd probably see about 6 other people walking around with it on next weekend.  so i passed.
do you know of any good places to find a cute hat... that everyone won't have:)

How are your scavenger hunts going?  I made a change to the date below... first it was Friday, then i selfishly changed it because i just wanted some more time to do it:)  then i changed it again today because i figured it made more sense to have a deadline of a monday than a friday {because weekends are perfect for pictures}.  plus, i'm a procrastinator, so the more time the better, haha:)

  1. You can find cute hats at vintage stores and thrift stores, if you don't mind buying hats there! I think I want a big floppy summer sun hat.

  2. How funny! Rox from the 60/40 just posted a similar longing for the "pretentious sunhat"! And you can see my new one here: http://thevintagechair.blogspot.com/2010/04/in-shade.html

    Have a great day!

  3. I have such a hard time wearing hats (correction, I have a hard time finding cute hats to fit my HUGE head); but I love them so! I can't wait to see what you find. I'd definitely check out thrift shops. Always cute and unique stuff to be found there.

  4. I just bought two cute summer hats for my honeymoon. I don't normally wear hats but I thought I would step outta the box and have some fun:)
