Saturday was the Ketucky Derby and we were invited to a Derby Party — the whole family had a blast!  The invitation said hats required, like I need an excuse to wear a hat.:)

  I whipped up one for me and one for G the morning of the party using a hat we already had and a Thrift Store find ($4.99), a wide ivory grosgrain ribbon that I found in my stash of ribbons, blush pink silk roses I bought at The Christmas Tree Store for $10.00 and a hot glue gun.

The outfit was inspired by OP.  I love the idea of layering a shorter dress or tunic with a pair of shorts that just peek out from underneath.  I bought the navy and ivory Paper Crane tunic, along with 3 other dresses (to be revealed soon) at Marshall’s.  Each was $19.99.  The navy shorts (you can barely see them, but they’re there) are J.Crew 4″ Chino Short.  I only go with 4″.  I don’t know why but they are the perfect length for me.  The belt and watch are from Target, the sandals are Nine West (TJ Maxx), the purse is a Thrift Store Find from last year (also seen here), necklace is from my ridiculous JCPenney jewelry buy last fall (also seen here).

DSC03597Wide legged denim is coming back. I saw this pic of Olivia Palermo and found inspiration.

While I don’t own any actual bell bottoms, I’ve got lots of wide legged/boot cuts that really resemble a bell bottom.  These are a pair that have never left my closet (also seen here with the same faux suede boots).  They are more of trouser pant.  They are GAP and of course they are really old — About 10 years.  The sleeveless sweater wrap is also old (also seen here), TJ Maxx.  T was in preschool, so 4 years ago at least.  Short sleeved T-neck is Target this past fall (also seen here).  If they have them again in 2015, I recommend getting one or 2.  The neck is snug but not too tight and oooohhh so soft.  The coat is Nine West (also seen here).  The clutch was a find!  I found it in a Savers store for $4.00.  It’s fabric quilted Navy (I’ve already explained my current obsession with Navy in my last outfit post) and it has a long chain strap, so I can wear it cross-body, or double it up and make it a shoulder strap.  But mostly I use it as a large clutch.  I’m finding a lot of bags that I am making into clutches.  I should do a post on that. 🙂  And I just did a major watch buy at Target.  They were $10 a piece.  I couldn’t resist.  Military style accessories are in this Spring.  It’s a men’s watch so I had to make some modifications so it would fit.  Nothing a pair of scissors and super glue can’t handle.

Patiently waiting for a sunrise 🌅 it’s going to be a long winter. The bright side? more hot cocoa and snuggling under warm blankets. ♥️
