Shen Dove | Berry 1

Sweater: Macy’s | Jeans: Old Navy  (similar)| Hat: Roxy (similar) | Boots: Buffalo Exchange

Happy MLK Day! I’m a bit of a quote collector, so of course among other historical icons, I have a favorite Dr. King quote:

Darkness cannot drive out darkness. Only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate.  Only love can do that.

Definitely some words to reflect on any day of the year.  Let’s make this week a great one!

Happy Monday!  Hats like this one are simply not practical for my typical weekdays. But I really enjoy wearing them on weekends.  Do you ever wear any specific accessories on weekends only?

Style vs. Comfort

January 27, 2014

Shen Dove Style | Kimono Style

Kimono style shirt: UO // Jeans: UO (old) // Boots: F21 (old) // Hat: AA

Happy Monday!  Hope you all had a restful weekend.  I certainly did.  Winter has really asserted itself this year.  So though I love style, I refuse to sacrifice style for warmth and comfort. It may look like I walk around with no coat on, but I promise you my coat is right outside of the frame of all of these photos!

I’ve also been reaching for black a lot lately.  I know when spring (finally!) arrives, I’ll be wearing more bright colors, prints and maybe even some pastels, but for now, black clothing and accessories are welcome additions to my outfits.  Stay warm!

Hat Hair Day

Wedges: DSW (exactly) // Necklace: Eastern Market (DC)

I’ve been wearing a variation of this outfit on weekends lately.  Hats, skinny jeans, and lipstick make foolproof weekend outfits.  Especially on those days when styling your hair seems like too much effort.  But I’ve learned the hard way to hold on to hats on windy days so they won’t blow off your head!  This may or may not have happened to me over the weekend…

Hat Attitude

Shen Dove Style | Hat Attitude 1
Hat: AA // Dress: Target // Vest: Old Navy // Ankle Boots: F21 // 
Coach Bag: thrifted

Happy Monday!  I’ve never really been a “hat person,” but the cold temperatures in Philly lately have made wearing hats a necessity.  Since the cold weather will be here to stay for a while, I’ve decided to start investing in hats that I actually like to wear. This wide brimmed hat was the first in my “cute winter hat collection.” I can guarantee that you’ll be seeing me wearing more hats in the new year. 
What are you favorite stores to buy cute, affordable hats?
