basic dress + statement accessories

Speaking of the oversized fedora trend, I myself have fallen in love with it. I love that the hat can pair perfectly with a great maxi skirt for a bohemian look, or [like i wore it below], it could be a great statement piece to pair with a basic and classic dress. I love this one from Madewell because the sleeveless aspect allows you to wear it during warmer months, but the material is super comfortable and keeps you warm as temps cool off.

Trend Alert! Fierce Fedoras

If you followed our fashion frenzy from New York, you may have noticed that fedoras are a huge item for Fall 2013. This is definitely a must have for the season. I particularly loved the modern trend at Trina Turk's sleek chic presentation at Lincoln Center and the hats spotted on the runway with a raiding your boyfriend's closet vibe at Nicole Miller. Okay, are you dying for this accessory? Never fear, we have your back. You can purchase a fierce felt fedora from Topshop here.
