Flower Garden for my Hair

Remember how I was in Japan last summer? I finally pulled out one of the yukatas I bought in Nara and decided to wear it as a jacket to Mother's Day brunch in Old Town yesterday. When I was visiting Japan, seeing girls (and boys) wearing yukatas was not an uncommon occurrence (is this double negative allowed grammatically?). Huge yukata revival over there apparently, I like!



I really like pairing long jackets with short dresses so that the hems are relatively the same length.



And looooook I'm wearing a flower crown!!! I got this one from Royal Menagerie, this cute little boutique which I've featured before here and here. I love wearing pretty things in my hair, it makes me feel a little better that I don't brush my hair or attempt to do anything interesting with it. Hair is instantly more interesting if you affix something lovely in it, right? I say more flowers the merrier, how about a flower garden in my hair?! Figuring out a blog-worthy outfit usually takes up most of my time getting ready that I never have time to do anything to my hair!



And because I always feel like something is missing if I'm not wearing a necklace of some sort, I paired the outfit with this delicate necklace from Inez Designs. I feel like sweet little necklaces should be worn against a white backdrop so it'll still pop out and you don't seem necklace-less.
