How to nail the effortlessly simple straw hat look

Who loves to wear straw hats? I do! Today I am sharing how to nail the effortlessly simple straw hat look!

The straw hat look is so fun to wear! It is the perfect accessory for spring and summer!

Not only is the straw hat a great accessory but it can cover up a bad hair day, it looks great with long or short hair, protects you from the sun and it is just plain fun!

Denim jacket and prairie top

For this outfit I of course had to wear my denim jacket.

I love the dark blue denim paired jacket with the light golden color and texture of the straw hat. It is the perfect laid back look.

You can read all about why this is my favorite denim jacket here.

I found this cotton prairie top for $10 at Downeast clearance center. It is super light weight cotton top and it has lots of pretty detailing.

The pleats all down the front create long lines which help elongate my short waist area.

I also really like the little bit of lace around the neckline.

The straw hat just adds to the look don’t you think? Don’t mind my goofy pose haha.

These lightweight chino pants from Gap are seriously the most comfortable.

I love the stripe down the the sides and the fringed hem. I linked some similar looking pants below.

Wedge Sandals and Crossbody Bag

Super comfortable wedge sandals are the best things going especially when traveling and you have to walk all over airports and towns.

This mini faux leather crossbody bag is one of my favorites to wear! It is small and yet holds just what I need to run around town.

It is from Walmart! Super cheap but looks expensive.

The little bag is especially great for me because I have back issues and don’t like to lug a heavy bag around.

Casual comfortable fashion is my favorite go to look. What is your favorite look?

Get yourself a straw hat and have a great weekend!

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
