Why You Should Embrace the Canadian Tuxedo

It’s back from the 90’s and it’s coming in hot and looking better than ever. And we’re not talking about Janet Jackson.

Jean. On. Jean.

Honestly I don’t know how we f*cked this up so bad back in the 90’s… Remember Britney and Justin Timberlake? Actually don’t. Don’t think about it, just know it was bad.

Nowadays the “canadian tuxedo” is looking bomb. Like wear it to work on a casual friday or wear it out with friends to the bars. Here’s a couple of the canadian tuxe looks we’re currently digging…

10 Betchy Ways to Wear A Floppy Hat

Who doesn’t love a good hat? Whether it’s a cute fedora or your old man’s baseball cap, hats are great. But nothing, and I mean NOTHING beats a cute FLOPPY HAT.

You can dress it up or dress it down, whether you’re spending the day at the beach or getting dressed up for that cutie at work. There are SO many ways you can wear it, here are just a few!

1. To A Music Festival

Paired with a cute, flowy sundress, fun flats, and lots of jewelry, a floppy hat would be absolutely perfect for any music festival (Day One Outfit: Check!)

2. With A Fishtail Braid

Fishtail braids can be tricky. Sometimes hair falls out the backside, but luckily, a floppy hat is just the solution! The hat will help cover those pesky, stray hairs that have fallen out of the braid and help to make your look seem effortless, but done on purpose.

3. With An All-Black Ensemble

Ya girl’s favorite color is definitely pink, but six out of seven days you will catch me wearing a lot of, if not all, BLACK. So why not top off your all-black outfit with a cute betchy hat to help pull your outfit together?! Match black ankle booties, a black oversized t-shirt dress and a black leather vest with your betchy black floppy hat.

4. A Day At The Beach

5. With Florals
