An Easter Bonnet


In recognition of Easter, I thought it would only be appropriate to showcase the classic accessory associated with this holiday: a bonnet... or in layman's terms, a hat. An Easter bonnet heralds spring and honors the tradition of wearing new clothes on the day in which renewal, rebirth, and redemption are celebrated.

Fortunately, these days there are a multitude of hats to choose from at various price points. One of my recent finds is pictured above - the "Colorblock Trim Floppy Hat" an understated straw chapeau from Forever 21. This simple design is on-trend due to its' floppy, wide brim silhouette and colorblock element. The cheerful yellow trim color is my top pick, but additional accent colors are also available (hot pink and turquoise). 

Whether you are attending a church service, having brunch with loved ones, and/or hunting for the treasured golden egg, enjoy your Easter Sunday ~ bonnet and all!
