This beautiful weather is spoiling me. Every time a cold wind hits I get mad and wonder why it's not summer already. I don't know what the weather is like by where you guys live but around here it's either warm, or freezing...not many in betweens. I'm starting to feel a little bit better, but still not 100% just yet. I am hoping that by the weekend I have myself back to perfect health, and I can enjoy what is left of my weekend-freedom. I have pretty much come to terms with having to work weekends, I am not happy about it, but what can I do? Sometimes unfortunately you have to do things you don't want to do. And that's all there is to it. 

 This weekend I am attending my first Kentucky Derby party. Something tells me my hat isn't big enough, I think I need to go way bigger, with a lot more flare. I always loved seeing the women with their giant hats parade around in their dresses and look fancy. Any suggestions on giant hats I can buy?

 I'm leaning towards the horse-hat...it's the classiest, and it's to the point.

  5. I have always wanted to go to an event where I can wear a big fancy hat. I live in the NY area, too, and I can't STAND this weather! I just want it to be warm already! I'm a native Floridian and summer is calling my name- wish mother nature would make up her mind!

    I really love your blog! You're one of the few bloggers that actually come off very personable in your posts. I hate that blogging has become very "clique-y" but I'm glad I found a blog like yours with someone who stays true to themselves! :)

    1. looks awesome... use "silver shine" (violet) shampoo to keep the brassiness out, and in between toners.

    P.s. I love the high waisted shorts, vintage top & your blond streak.
