I definitely wouldn't consider myself to be a hat person.  In fact, I hadn't worn a hat for years until I found this one.  I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it.  I really like the straight brim and the colour of it.  I feel like it will add so much character to many casual outfits during this summer.  Woohoo for summer!!

If you're not normally a hat person, you should give them a second chance!  They really add an extra element to an outfit!

The full BALLERINA bun

This is one of my favorite hair styles to do when I have second day hair.  It is so simple and makes my hair look 30X thicker than it really is!

and my weekend looked a little something like this...

DIY Neon Necklace

  

YOU NEED:

- Newspaper

- Sand paper

- A statement necklace

- Spray paint in a colour of your choice

- Matte white spray paint if your necklace is not already light in colour

1) Roughen up the surface of your necklace to help the paint adhere the the necklace

 2) In  a well ventilated area, spray paint the necklace from all angles

3) Allow to dry 15 minutes and apply another coat until desired colour is reached

(Keep in mind you may want to start with a base coat of white paint if your original necklace is not light in colour like mine)

 

And enjoy!

This was the outfit I wore to dinner for Mother's day.  The family went for yummy Chinese food (grandma's pick) and then I went to visit the boyfriend at his parents house to walk their dogs and sneak some of his moms delicious home made rhubarb pie (she even makes the crust and used home grown rhubarb from their backyard!).   Needless to say, these shorts were mighty tight when I left.
