BLACK FOREVER21 HAT

Hello friends!

Kaori here and I have a couple of new purchases to show you. When I was in Dubai, I of course had to check out the mahoosive Dubai Mall. There were so many stores that I can go to here in Guildford and Luxembourg but I don't always go to London and so I decided that a couple of things from F21 wouldn't hurt. I first bought a pair of watermelon socks which I posted about on Instagram here but I went back to get this hat and gorgeous lace top. I can definitely see myself wearing these two pieces regularly throughout the summer. I'd usually shy away from hats like this for the summer but I think that the gold chain pulls the look towards a more S/S vibe. I was a little worried about bring back it back through long haul travel but I simply rested the hat on my lap for the short flight from Dubai to Qatar and then in a fairly empty overhead locker for the flight from Qatar to Brussels. What kind of summer staples will you be adding to your wardrobe? I've been trying to find my white shorts which I bought ages ago but I just can't seem to find them anywhere!

GREY FEATHER FEDORA

With my hair being so dead straight and heavy, sometimes the easiest thing to do is to pop on a cap or a hat over my head. I own three snapbacks but I also do have a great love for fedoras. I found this one when I was browsing the shelves of Accessorize in Carlisle and I hesitated for a bit before deciding that it would be a reasonable purchase.

I absolutely love wearing it on drizzly rainy days but here the sun decided to make an appearance and luckily enough I was wearing a back cold shoulder dress which I picked up in New Look. I have one in blue from Motel Rocks but this one is a bit longer and so I am not as worried about being too indecent.

Mes cheveux sont si raides et si abondants que, parfois, la solution la plus simple c'est de me mettre un chapeau ou une casquette. J'ai trois casquettes réglables mais j'ai un grand penchant pour les fedoras. J'ai découvert cet exemplaire chez Accessorize à Carlisle (au nord de l'Angleterre), et j'ai réfléchi un peu avant de me convaincre qu'il était opportun de l'acheter. 

J'aime bien le porter par les jours sombres et pluvieux, mais cette fois le soleil a fait son apparition. Heureusement, je portais une robe noire aux épaules découvertes que j'avais achetée chez New Look. J'en ai une autre en bleu, achetée chez Motel Rocks, mais cette robe noire est un peu plus longue - ce qui protège ma modestie!
