How To Wear a Baker Boy Hat In a Casual Way? A Spring Outfit Proposal


How to style a baker boy hat? Today I'm presenting you with my casual monochrome outfit proposal. Why casual? Simply because I dressed having a long walk in mind. Why monochrome? As much as I love colour, I thought that keeping my outfit black and white would help make it more elegant. I wanted to create a casual outfit that will be simple and chic. Baker boy hat (IMHO) falls into the category of  statement hats. This hat is one of Spring trends, but it can be hard to style, because it is a bit on the 'loud' side. Baker boy hat /newsboy cap comes with a boyish/rock chic vibe, so to make it more girl appropriate, I paired it with a pair of vintage white jeans, a vintage white turtleneck and a vintage pepita blazer. What do you think? Do you like this outfit? Would you like to see another outfit proposal with this hat? Let me know in the comments.

Recently I wrote a rather long article about the benefits of shopping our own closets (here). Today I'm living this philosophy by wearing vintage items from my closet. I have actually had this biker boy hat in my closet for a long time. You see, I bought this hat for next to nothing about four years ago and added a leather decoration to make it more 'biker chic'. I love customizing clothes, but you already knew that, didn't  you? A bit of DIY attitude can take us a long way, and adding a personal touch is always a good way to refresh our clothing items. When we are re-wearing clothes, it is always good to throw in something new. This helps to keep things more interesting. The only 'new' thing I'm sporting here is this black and white pair of sneakers. My husband bought these sneakers for me during my prolonged stay in a hospital last year and this was actually the first chance I got to wear them. I'm not very keen of sneakers, I'm afraid. To be honest, I'm a  bit of a heel addict, but once in a while I will opt for a more comfortable pair of shoes.

A Spring Outfit Proposal #medjugorje



Now, a bit about the location for this post. You probably recognize it by now. The two of us are regular visitors to Međugorje, we probably head there once or twice a month on average. In case you're interested in seeing my precious visits to Medjugorje and/or would like to see more photographs of this place, I'm going to leave you links to my old posts from 2013 (here, here, here, here), 2014 (here), 2015 (here, here) 2016 (here, here, here, here), 2017 (here). Gosh, I really do spend a lot of time in this little village.

sweater: vintage

sneakers: no name





 Medjugorje is usually crowded with tourists this time of the year, but fortunately when we got there, it was relatively peaceful. Perhaps because it was still early. Anyhow, we had a lovely walk, had a cup of over priced coffee and drove back. I love visiting Medjugorje, it's such a serene and beautiful area, bathed in sunshine most of the time, so what is there not to love? Expect pricey coffee? Anyhow, I'm thinking about putting together a little insider's guide to Medjugorje, so let me know if you would be interested in reading something like that. There are actually quite a few wonderful and affordable restaurant in Medjugorje, so if you want to know more, I could make a little gastro guide for you.

    Ciao Ivana. Sono stata a Medjugorje qualche anno fa come turista. È davvero un luogo speciale e penso che un giorno (forse con i gemelli) ci tornerò.
    Bello l'outfit. Semplice e basico. Il cappello ti sta davvero bene.
    Un bacio,

    Dear Ivana, I see you shopped again very successfully in your own closet! I love your look with the baker boy hat and you did right to wear this monochrome look with it! Maybe next time you'll show this hat with a dress? Looking forward to it. And it is wonderful that the place you visited was not that crowdy as usually as it seems to be a fantastic place. Enjoy this Sunday!

    I like your casual outfit, I have some shoes similar to yours, COnverse, and I love them so much, perfect for casual outfits like this :) I do like this place you visit, it's beautiful.


    Hope you are having a great weekend! We had a busy one, some Church Online people flew over from the US so the weekend was full of activities :)

    Hey Ivana, I couldn't come here due to my bad health. I had missed a lot friends blogger posts. I'm so happy to see your outfit post as I was looking for your outfit for spring. This outfit is so beautiful and decent. I love how you have kept the color of this outfit graceful and the way you have edited the pics is wonderful. I love the picture with shadow pics idea. You are looking so cute <3
    Will be more busy in the coming days due to a visit to my parents and in laws. What about you? Will you go anywhere for holidays?
    Have a happy Monday :)

    Ivana, I really like that you show us your outfit photos in real scenarios, is like a win win because we can see your style but also knowing a little more about the places you frequent.

    As I told you in previous posts I really like the idea of shopping our own closets and reuse garments from the past or appeal to DIY tutorials, there are many ways we can get fashionable without spending too much money and that's one of the best things we can do for our pockets but also for the planet ;)

    Love everything about this look, is very Chanel by the way, and the hat is definitely the HIGHTLIGHT of the season, have seen them in a lot of Instagram accounts and blogs and I'm sure we will still seeing this for some months so use it as much as you can, is super cool :D

    Talking about closet shopping, I do that too! And I enjoy it. I've not been shopping for clothes since forever and I'd like to keep it that way for as long as possible because I have tons already and some are just stuck somewhere in the corner waiting to be de-cluttered. I really love this baker boy style hat as I've seen it around but due to the weather here and my penchant for avoiding wearing anything over my head, I get to appreciate it on you. I feel like it is quite chic the way you styled it in this monochrome casual outfit. And yes to the sneakers! I'd wear those because you know me and my feet. Hahah. I didn't know they sell overpriced coffee in a small village. Please do a gastro entry because you know I love food. You look really beautiful appreciating Medjugorje (I do not know how to pronounce this!) And yes to the blazer too because it's so pretty! Take good care my closet-shopper friend :D

THE ISLAND OF THE MISSING TREES BY ELIF SHAFAK (BOOK REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION)

Image
Today I shall review The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak. I was actually gifted this book. What a wonderful present it proved to be! Published in 2021, this postmodern  novel  follows two  story lines and uses framed narration.  The Island of Missing Trees  tells the life story of a Greek Turkish couple and their adolescent daughter.  This novel examines and explores a number of topics such as identity, migration, immigrant life, war trauma, memory, love and family. It's an ambitious novel that examines serious topics with due respect and sensitivity . I read it months ago, but I remember it vividly. Honestly, I cried a lot while reading this novel. It really moved me greatly. In fact, that is probably why it took me this long to finish this book review. I needed to emotionally process the story.   The Island of Missing Trees is   set in London and Cyprus. The narration isn't chronological .  The story jumps back and forth, following ...

VISIT SINJ (CROATIA) WITH ME! EXPLORE THE DALMATIAN HIGHLANDS!

Image
Hello readers and fellow bloggers! Regular readers of my blog will know that I'm Dalmatian and ' parce mihi Domine,' (as St. Jerome's supposedly used to pray). Dalmatia is one of four historical Croatian regions. When we're talking about coastal regions in Croatia, there are only two: Istria and Dalmatia. Occupying the majority of Croatian seaside, Dalmatia is extremely popular with tourists. Dalmatian coast is quite long, including hundreds of islands, and running from Zadar in the north do Dubrovnik to the south.  However, there's more to Dalmatia than its seaside and islands.  I'm from the seaside myself, a proper sea child and all,  but I love the Dalmatian Highlands. Rich in history and culture, Dalmatia Highlands are unique in many ways. From culinary delicacies to fascinating traditions, from untouched nature to picturesque towns and villages, you'll find much to admire here. Have I blogged about it before? I certainly did. I blogged about the Gr...

WHAT I WORE IN MOSTAR FOR WONDERFULLY WARM AND SUNNY AUTUMN DAYS

 Hello readers and fellow bloggers! Happy Sunday! In this post, I'll share three warm Autumn outfits I wore for strolling around Mostar city. Today is quite cold and cloudy for our Mediterranean standards, so the plan is to stay in and catch up with blogging. I've had a pretty eventful weekend so far. Weekend sometimes seem to just fly by, don't they? We often try to make up for the things we didn't do during the week, especially us ladies. We try to fit in all in- to clean the house, do chores and that sort of things. Sometimes weekends can even be tiring. There are conferences and meetings to attend. Learning how to shut down and rest properly can be a challenge. Life gets busy, and sometimes the older we get, the more busy it becomes. That's why I'm so grateful for these little outings I do, being a tourist in my own city and country- that sort of thing. I sometimes feel like I mastered sustainable and local travel . The challenge is just finding the time to ...

BURGUNDY AND YELLOW OUTFIT IN SPLIT CITY

Image
 Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll show you an autumn outfit I wore for a seaside stroll with my family in Split city, Croatia. This outfit is another example of me shopping my closet, so you can expect the sustainable fashion files to kick in any minute. This was a very comfortable outfit to wear that also felt very energizing. Probably it was due to colour therapy and all that. Wearing colours often makes me feel better. Mustard yellow and burgundy are the main colours in this look, and I do love these colours together. I dressed in layers, for it was quite windy and fresh despite the warm sun.  As regular readers of my blog know, Split is my home city, and you can find me there very often. In fact, you could say that I live between Split and Mostar. I love Mostar, but I do miss the sea. Is there anything better than seaside in Autumn and Winter? I always love being near the sea, but during the Autumn and Winter when there are hardly any people aroun...

30 PLUS WAYS TO WEAR AN OLIVE BLAZER (SUSTAINABLE FASHION FILES)

Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, we'll talk some more about  sustainable fashion. As I believe the best way to learn is through example, so I'll show you multiple ways how to style an olive green blazer. On this little digital place to call my own, I love to show you how you can be more sustainable by shopping your closet. The more you love items in your closet and the better care you take of your clothes, you easier you'll find it to shop your closet. So, that's something to keep in mind! Besides linking up outfits with this blazer, I'll link up multiple ways to wear other items in my closet. As always, there will be fun collages to help you see the vision- how chic and fun restyling items can be! Olive green can be somewhat of an underrated colour, even if it is trending at the moment. For Autumn/Winter 2024/2025, tonal dressing in olive greens and khakis is right on trend. I'm convinced that when styled right, olive green can look good wi...

FORGIVENESS DAY BY URSULA K. LE GUIN (BOOK REVIEW AND AN AUTUMN STYLING)

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! How are you today? I'm back with another Ursula K. Le Guin book review. In this post, I'll review " Forgiveness Day" , a science fiction novella that is a part of the Hainish Circle. Published in 1995, "Forgiveness Day " won multiple awards. This novella is often published together with her other novellas from the Hainish Circle, and it can be find in various editions of Four Ways to Forgiveness and Five Ways to Forgiveness.   Thematically, this novella is a part of five stories featuring two Hainish planets, but it can definitely be read on its own. I think it functions well as a stand alone novella. I listened to it in audio form, and I didn't have any problems following the story.  The world building is simple and effective. The author fills us in about the history of the two planets as the story enfolds. For such a short work of prose, this novella is really impressive in that it manages to explore the theme o...
