I just stumbled across anasousa's shop, and really love the mixture of old world elegance and the new and unexpected. The shop has a mixture both totally wearable and completely whimsical items, and I highly suggest you take a tour, at least for the pure eye candy.
I always thought the idea of not wearing white after labor day was so ridiculous, especially since there's nothing I love more than crisp and chic winter whites.
I really adore this look, seen on Stil in Berlin. I think it's amazing that this works, or that a raccoon hat can work at all. Maybe it's the modesty and understated chicness of the rest of the outfit that just makes the hat not only work, but totally necessary.
