Good morning beauties!


I'm back from the Grand Canyon! Woo! It was SO hot...but SO amazing! Oh man, if you have never been, you would not believe how big this giant hole in the ground is. It literally goes on forever.


So anyway, I wrote a tutorial a couple of weeks ago about how to resize a hat that my be too big (read the post here). I ended up resizing all of my hats using this simple technique and wow...I did not realize how many I had. Let's just say that my hat collection may be catching up with my tulle skirt collection in the future... haha!


As I was doing this, I thought it might be fun to revisit some of my favorite "hat looks."
Enjoy! <3

I don't know about you but I LOVE hats! I think they are both functional and fashionable and add so much to an outfit.

But there is one problem...

They are always TOO BIG!

I love the excitement of getting a new hat, only to be met by the disappointment of trying it on. For YEARS, I wore hats that were way too big for me...or just didn't wear them at all. I even contemplated getting rid of them because they didn't fit. After discovering this little secret, I resized all of my hats and can now wear all of them without any problems!

*Please note that this hat in particular is actually resizable without the use of this tutorial. The hat used in this tutorial has a ribbon in the back that can be tied together to tighten the sweatband for a custom fit. Genius! This hat was only used for this tutorial to show you how you can customize the fit of a hat if this ribbon is not present. Enjoy!
