Well, I’m a bit behind on my straw hats (lesson number two), but we’ve moved onto the next style: the cocktail hat. I thought I’d use this opportunity to create my wedding veil! Lucky me. I’ll have many hats to show you in a few weeks, but for now you’ll have to make do with some visual inspiration I’ve pulled together for my “cocktail hats”.
I take a lot of pictures and write a lot of posts throughout the year, but that doesn’t mean they all make the initial cut. We believe in editing here at Westervin. However, when your record company needs a new track, and you just haven’t put anything new on tape, it’s time to flip the disc and crank up the b-side. Here’s a Westervin Wear post from fall (how I miss those crunchy leaves and light jackets) which no one has seen, until today!

Sarah loves banners and sparkly lights. Sarah also thinks about our wedding a lot. Luckily for her, my mom snapped this picture at a Mexican restaurant in San Antonio. I think it’s pretty obvious that this is how we’ll have to decorate our reception.
The trend away from cheap, mass-produced commodities seems to manifest itself in all sorts of different ways. From food (think artisinal, organic), to cocktails (classic, non-vodka-based “mixology”), to grooming (double-edged—or straight blade ¡scary!—razors), to clothes (premium jeans with gold rush era details), etc. More and more people seem to be finding that there is something to the simple, high-quality construction of the past. It’s something that is enchanting, timeless, and, importantly, sincere.
