A couple of weeks ago I attended the Saks Fifth Avenue presents Oscar de la Renta resort 2015 to benefit the League to Save Lake Tahoe in Incline Village, Nevada. The event was a beautiful fundraiser which helped raise much-needed funds for ensuring a clean environment in the Tahoe area. The added perk of the fundraiser was getting a sneak peek, or first-hand look, at Oscar de la Renta’s resort 2015 collection. You can read my write-up here.

I knew the event would be out in the sun so I was excited to find this Kate Spade dress made out of cool cotton, and this Eric Javits hat with spf protection. I felt like the two pieces were made for each other! I have also found myself wearing this hat for many occasions other than the fundraiser. You can see when I wore it boating here.

It is always fun to dress up and put an outfit together for a special occasion. I am keeping my fingers crossed for another event soon where I can re-wear this outfit!
