Lace Baseball Hat

I'm pretty sure the words "lace" and "baseball hat" have never been used together, but here they are, and paired with a skirt nonetheless!

My hair could not be allowed out on such a humid day so I had to contain it. This cap has been sitting in my closet since I heard the first whispers of the baseball hat trend months ago, yet I never really found a chance to wear it (it really didnt go with my professional teacher look). 

Making the best of bad hair days - yet another reason I love summer accessories.

Sale Away...

To mark me "sailing" away to Greece (not sailing, flying actually), I'll put up my favorite new sailboat top that I picked up in NY at Uniqlo a few weeks ago. I love how it feels like I'm wearing little boy's pjs! 

You might notice some small changes over the next 11 days at Hot Pink Style. I will be overseas, so I won't be doing as much Facebooking or Instagramming. I'm still going to put up my regular posts to keep the fashion hunger satisfied, and don't worry, I promise to come back and share all the beautiful places from our trip.

Not So Mello Yellow

It's a shame that I've had this dress in my closet for so long without ever wearing it! Since summer hasn't really felt like coming entirely yet, I figured this might be my last chance to wear this sunny dress while it was still cooler.

As far as yellow goes, people always say that it's such a hard color to wear, that it doesn't suit many people. As for me I think it's second favorite next to hot pink, and I also think it looks better on most people than they give it credit for. The trick is to find the right shade, and canary is mine!

Dress: Banana Republic

Bracelet: H&M

Necklace: Nordstrom Tildon "Vintage Floral" statement necklace
