What They are Wearing: Dallas: The Mad Hatters Tea

I have recently developed an obsession with hats!  Large hats, small hats, anything but a baseball cap!  And Im not the only one!   The trend for wearing hats is huge this year, and I hope that I get invited to some event like this one very soon.

Every year, the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens hosts an event called The Mad Hatters Tea to benefit their venue.  The nature theme went to every one's head at the recent event, especially the prize-winning butterfly hat dripping with natural gold-edged monarch chrysalises.

Katie Bryce's Closet....Mixing Prints for Mixed Up Weather

The last week in Atlanta has brought so me unseasonably cold weather.  While, I am not a big fan of the cold, I was thankful for the opportunity to pull out this outfit!  I bought both of these pieces at thrift stores during my trip to Colorado, but was unable to wear them because it has been so hot here!  The blouse is a teal polka dot ruffle front blouse from the Gap, and the skirt is a vintage handmade skirt.  All together, this look cost me around $10, which you cant beat with a stick!
