The Wild Hat Chase
As I sipped my "Sex in the Valley" cocktail attempting to soak up every ray of the sunshine Napa Valley was offering this weekend, I stopped in my tracks when I saw Kokin's indigo banded raffia hat featured in the March issue of C Magazine. For months, I've been lustfully scouring every website trying to score this particularly handsome hat, much to no avail. Kokin's hats take the crown and are notoriously hard to find. Below, I leave you with a few other of my favorite options while the wild hat chase ensues. Also - you (mostly) can't go wrong with these.
Currently Coveting
I love a good hunt. Put me in a consignment store and I'll dream about upholstering a dilapidated love seat or shining up a forgotten sterling silver tray for my tableware collection. Put my Mother and I in the same environment together and we'll scheme for hours. The recent discovery of Shop Latitude gives me the same sort of enjoyment. The site is a curated online marketplace for one of a kind travel finds in the form of clothing, accessories and souvenirs from the around the globe. Above is a sampling of some of my favorite pieces. Now the only problem is, I need a global escapade!
Stole My Heart
I don't like gawking at other people's wedding photographs as I believe they truly should be private and personal, however, this photograph is an exception in my book. My jaw just about dropped when I saw this cuteness from Arabella Musgrave and George Galliers-Pratt's wedding in London. The little boys in navy custom-made military inspired outfits stole my breath away. I can't stop gushing - such sweetness!

Queue It Up: True Detective
Is anyone else watching HBO's new series True Detective? I'm still working my way through the season and find it raw and oddly seducing. (Think American Horror Story meets The Bone Collector). The crime thriller stars Matthew McConaughey (what a year he has had!) and his crime partner Woody Harrelson who are working to solve a series of murders in the sticks of Louisiana. The season finale just wrapped on March 9th but you can watch if you have HBO. Enticed? Watch the trailer here.
