Outfit // What I Wore on Resurrection Sunday

Hello all! We are busy over here getting ready for our big week of Tulip Time. Each year it seems to creep up on us even with all of our preparations. Last minute costume alterations, 200 banket sticks to make and package, and daily toils has made our family very grateful for our fabulous Sabbath weekend before the event actually begins.

My Mom took a quick trip to a Goodwill that we don't visit very often and brought back this quaint felted repro hat just a week before our celebrated Easter Sunday. After I tried the hat on, everything else just fell into place, I used my ultimate linen summer dress as the base.

As for my hair, I sock-curled the front the night before with damped hair, separated them the next morning and pinned them back. Then took the rest of my hair in three sections, braiding two of them and doing a simple twist with the other, creating little rosettes around the hat.

I must add that since Rebekah was not feeling well the Sunday afternoon these photos were taken, a little sister willingly took her place as my photographer. It was so sweet of her and she did a fairly good job. We also had a nice bonding time as we went for a short tramp down our country road to get in some different scenery.

I have enjoyed everyone's classy outfit posts from what they wore to their own special services so much this past week! I did notice that everyone who posted ended up wearing a dress. I think that it gives such a simple clean and springy feel. And you can have such a variety of accessories to choose from when adding the details!

What have you been up to?

Would you wear my hat?

What have you been doing with your family lately?

**Just a brief rundown [in case you are a new reader/follower] about our ties with Tulip Time. We run an all Dutch food dining room which an Aunt of ours is in charge of and every cent of profit is given to missions that help women and children. This year we also are part of The Dutch Heritage Show which features Dutch dances, fun skits, Dutch songs (which we sing in Dutch), and costume presentations.
