moonrise kingdom

We saw Moonrise Kingdom this weekend and went out for Sushi on Friday night, date night. 
Have you seen Moonrise kingdom, the new Wes Anderson film? 
It was strangely romantic, wonderfully whimsical and absolutely fabulous. 
I love the era it's in, of course, being a 60's loving girl. It's just such a beautiful, well done movie. Very avant garde and artsy. We had to search for a movie theatre that was playing it. If it's playing near you, and you love Wes Anderson films (Royal Tenenbaums, Life Aquatic, Fantastic Mr. Fox) you'll really enjoy this young love story. He's so quirky in his directing.

Thanks again to everyone who came out and supported the pop up show on Saturday. www.GotHattitude.com. I still have a number of awesome pieces left over, so I've been toying with the idea of Etsy. Has anyone else been on etsy? What do they think of it? I know as a customer of Etsy (I buy ALL my christmas presents on that site) I love it...but wondering what it's like from a store's perspective. 

i like to wear ice cream cones

Dress/skirt: urban outfitters

Shoes: Thrifted

Tights: Winners

Necklace: Hattitude Jewels

rings: flea market and spanks clothing (fox ring, isn't it adorable!)

Belt: My mom's

Cardigan: Exopsure, Vancouver

How this outfit came to be Hattified: I started with the patterned cardigan, doesn't it look like little ice cream cones? Then paired it with the next thing in my closet that matched. The accordion skirt is the perfect colour. The two different textures of the shirt/dress and tights make up the other two patterns in my 'rule of three' that i've been following as of late. 

Why this outfit works: The cardigan matches the skirt, with the patterned tights all in the same colour palette. This is key when mixing patterns. 

Another version: Lose the belt and replace it with a light beige colour. Ditch the tights and opt for bare legs to bring the outfit more neutral. Pair with flat shoes. 

Last night we went to an italian restaurant. Isn't date night your favourite night of the week? Our food was so delicious. I'm going to miss living in Vancouver (9 days till ontario) eating out whenever we wish, with every food ethnicity at our finger tips (although my pants are probably going to like it more).

What are your weekend plans? It's getting so nice out, all the flowers and cherry blossoms are blooming. The city is becoming just stunning. Walking along the beach is a must for this weekend. If you get to wearing your Hattitude this weekend, send me a photo! I'd love to see you wearing it.
