KANSAS COUTURE: Three Strikes

Three Strikes

Top: Many Belles Down, courtesy of High Gloss Fashion // Shorts: Thrifted, $3 // Scarf: Gift // Shoes: Thrifted, $1.50

After all my belly-aching last week, we were treated to beautiful spring weather on Saturday and balmy summery weather on Sunday! I wore this casual get-up for a little picnic, a walk through the dog park and an afternoon cocktail (or two).

After receiving this vibrant floral blouse in the mail on Thursday, I managed to wear it three times from Friday to Saturday -- once at work, once for going out and and then this casual daytime look. Stay tuned to see the other two ways I styled it.

Turban-style headbands have definitely become my go-to solution for unwashed hair. They add a cute, retro feel to any look and are less fussy than hats. A couple of readers have asked for a tutorial, so keep an eye out for that this week. It's super easy. Happy Monday, all!
