The first occasion of the season was the traditional luncheon with my beloved Hat Ladies of Charleston. Kathleen and I complemented each other perfectly. As a Hat Lady, I'm constantly working on the exact head-tilt so we can both fit into the frame, without clashing hats.
Fascinator: Amazon, $10
Blouse: Friend's closet, $8
Leopard belt: Salvation Army $2
Spandex pencil skirt: Amazon $12
Next up, holiday concert at The Gaillard with My Man About Town. His jacket is a micro-ribbed velvet corduroy.
Ruffled rain jacket: Reinvented Upscale Resale, $25
Taffeta cocktail skirt: Ross, $13
I admit to being completely snobby when it comes to dressing for the theatre. Good heavens, I saw someone recently, in athletic wear, in the front row. Coco Chanel was rolling over in her grave. And with that, comes the little confession that I am wearing a $5 T shirt in the photo above.
Red T shirt: Forever 21, $5
Shoes: Community Thrift, $1.99
Pom Pom choker: DIY $4
Forever, I have wanted a top hat forever. Believe it or not I found this beauty, new of all things, at the Scottish games this past fall. It has a lower crown, and is quite like a riding hat.
Naturally, I had to dress it up with 3 yards of tulle $9, ad a vintage pin, $2.
Here I am, out our second Hat Ladies holiday event with our stunning Top Hat, Archie Burkel.
Black v neck sweater: Gap, Goodwill, $4
Red patent leather clutch: Community Thrift, $1
And the big event I keep in the back of my mind all year while thrifting, The Spine Ball.
Gold lame gown: Goodwill, $3.99
