DIY Derby Hat

I had the pleasure of attending a really fun derby-themed wedding for one of my former teammates this weekend. 

I was scrambling at the last minute for inspiration and came up with this simple, inexpensive, no-sew derby hat.

Supplies:

• Wide brim hat
• Scarf
• Safety Pins
• Bow
• Iron-on letters
• Iron

Stupid Cupid

Cropped Jacket: Lilly Pulitzer l Shirt: Jcrew l Pants: VINCE

I found both the jacket and pants at TJ Maxx. A great staple pant similar to these are the Jcrew skimmer pant found here. Pair this Jcrew Factory blouse with the pants for a Valentines Day pop of color.

Make it your own by changing up the layered jewelry.

Shh It's a Secret..

I love LOVE Lauren Conrad's style. Recently, I bought her book at TJ Maxx.

LC's book was the inspiration for this comfortable winter outfit.

The key is having an under shirt that is long for layering when you are wearing leggings. 

Can't find one? Or can't find one cheap enough? 

The secret: Liz Lange maternity tanks at Target for $12.99! Strange, but they are extremely comfortable and the perfect length. 

I purchased the tank in my normal size.
