What I Wore Wednesday: Easter Edition

I'm a little early with my WIWW post.  Thought I'd get the jump on the other WIWW posters by posting a day ahead.  This weeks post is my Easter suit, but most importantly, my Easter bonnet.

 

This is my Easter Bonnet

 

Suit: Burlington Coat Factory $39.99

Hat: Burington Coat Factory $15.99

Tank: Ashley Stewart $9.99

I've always enjoyed wearing a hat at Easter. Except for the 80's when my hair was too big.

 

I credit my grandmother Clara for my love of hats. My earliest memories of Easter involve a floppy, white lace hat. Somewhere, there is a picture of me, standing next to Clara in her front yard, in front of her azalea bushes, wearing our Easter finest....hats, hose and gloves.

 

She loved a good "dress up" occasion and would dress to the hilt. She enjoyed dressing up for the little mundane things too.  I often think of her as I dash the mall with whatever I have on. How she would just die because I had gone in whatever I might have on, rather than dressing for the occasion.

 

 

I think she would have enjoyed my outfit.
