wide-brimmed

Right after I put up this post, I got a really lovely surprise in my Inbox: an email from Juicy Couture, asking to send me a little something for summer! And I was so excited when I opened up the box and found the hat I'd been trying on at their event!

And it went perfectly with this top, which I got for our honeymoon almost two years ago. Chad and I are in serious need of a vacation -- we haven't done a beach trip in forever, ever since Santa Monica was crazily cold after the Emmy's last August, which turned our sit-by-the-beach vacation into a walk-around-and-eat-a-lot vacation.

I feel like this hat is inspiring me to plan a trip that lives up to it! The moment I put it on, all I wanted was to be sipping a cocktail by the pool for the rest of the afternoon. Not so easy to come by in Manhattan, unfortunately!

But, hey, with the right accessories, a girl can dream...
