Let me apologize for disappearing from this blog for nearly two weeks! I've been all over the place these days. Bouncing between day jobs and beginning big projects. Designing a Fall collection is one of the most exciting things I've been working on as well as launching a cooking website. I'll have updates on all of this as the weeks go by.
Today I went to a lecture on hats at The Cosmopolitan Club on the Upper East Side. Ooh lala. It was a luncheon. I was literally in  a room full of ladies who lunch. And we were all lunching- them on shrimp, salad, and chocolate. Me on grilled veggies and berries. The lecture reinforced my knowledge of hat making and made me even more excited to start on my fall designs!
I'm wearing my mothers vintage hat, my step grandmothers vintage earrings, and my grandmothers handmade vintage dress. Talk about keeping it in the family!

Hat, dress, earrings, and coat are vintage. Espadrilles are from Dry Goods NY.

    Lovely outfit doll, and I'm glad you found the hat talk useful. Looking forward to your designs--did you share any of your own ideas while at the club? If so what did they think?

    It was fun. I didn't share too much with the group but got a lot of attention for my outfit and hat choice!
    birdbaths: I believe they are by artesania.
