I went to the barn in Rockmart this weekend to spend some time with my horse.  She's retired -- 28 years old and, basically, just a big puppy that loves carrots!  Summertime at the barn is my least favorite time of year -- it's hotter than ever with flies and HORSEFLIES -- ugh!  I sure as heck wasn't wearing Bridgette!  The perfect accessory?  My bad-ass lavendar bandana.  It looks like the typical bandana BUT it's got a soft insert that you just put on your head, then the bandana falls perfectly and you tie it however you want. 

I had some friends coming over for dinner, margaritas, and WII last night.  They showed up 5 minutes early when I was putting the finishing touches on the make-up, but had no hair going.  I looked over and perched on my make-up mirror was the perfect thing to grab -- "Hattie," my baseball cap with half of a blond wig velcroed into the band!  Threw it on before the doorbell even rang twice.

I know there are catalogues you'll find at your doc's office and places online you can order accessories, but I found mine where I got my wig -- "A Woman's Place" boutique at Northside Hospital -- worth a trip if it's anywhere near you.  There are usually stores in hospitals like it that have the cute headgear.  I made a good time out of picking mine out with my niece and friend -- I also got a fuzzy cap to sleep in when I get cold (which, in this Atlanta summer, hasn't happened yet,) and a couple of other cute, colorful caps.  Everything I picked out was under $25, except for "Hattie" which was $50, but so worth it!  If you're feeling very adventurous, you could get your own Hattie with long, curly, dark locks -- or go red!  My mom is a whiz at sewing and she took a few of my favorite baseball caps and sewed some velcro into them so I can change up the baseball caps too.  Hard to believe that this is actually FUN stuff!
