12 Days of Modest Fashion - Day 4

 The theme for Day #4 is to wear your hair curly or crimpy.  I opted for curly because I really like rag-rolling my hair.  My hair is kind of funny.  It won't hold curls from a curling iron, but when I take the rags out of my hair in the morning, it stays curled up just as tight as when they were still in!  

 So then I have to go through and work them each a little bit looser.  I used to just leave them like they look in the picture above, but when I got to be about 12, I decided that I was too old to look like Shirley Temple any more.  By the end of the day, I'd pinned them up into a messy bun/waterfall type thing because they kept getting caught in costumes as I helped kids change into and out of their costumes at the practice(s) for our church pageant next week.

 What I'm wearing: Black dress shoes American Eagle - gift; Black skirt (you can't see from the pictures, but it is covered in little red berries and flowers that match the shirt) thrifted; Wine/Burgundy zip-front blouse thrifted; black turtle neck thrifted; red hat gift from my Grandmum.

 This is one of my favorite hats, it's a wine/burgundy felt with a little "belt" around the brim and an ostrich feather plume on the back.  My Grandmum wore it when she was a little older than me, but decided a few years ago that she wasn't going to wear it any more, so she gave it to me!  Daddy says I look like one of Robin Hood's Merry Men in it.  :)
