Not too long ago, I thought, you know what I need?  A bright bolo.  Or, as I used to refer to them in the '90s, lariats.  So I searched Etsy and discovered some cool shops.  One of them, Fat Cat Fancy, had heart bolos in all sorts of colors.  I knew I wanted one but had trouble choosing.  So I got two, a yellow heart and a red and pink heart cameo.  Once they arrived, I immediately styled western-themed outfits around them.  Denim?  Check.  Cowboy boots?  Check.  Attitude?  Check.  If by attitude I mean goofy dress-up energy, which I of course do.         

To round things out, I added a third fit featuring my own valentine necklace.  I've said it before and I'll say it again: Valentine's Day is my fave fashion holiday.  So this is the first of many hearts-and-flowers  posts.  

Let's see how many I can cram in before Presidents' Day.

I learned something new from your post again . I never heard of the term "bolo" - now I know what to call those necktie pieces!! I love valentine themes too and hearts especially. Looking forward to more Valentine posts!

I agree that Valentine's Day is a favorite fashion holiday!! And your outfits certainly exude the energy of the holiday; the bolos are adorable, and the way you styled them with western flair is so cute! I especially adore your pigtails with the scrunchies. "Goofy dress-up energy" for the win! I look forward to seeing more hearts-and-flowers posts! πŸ’›πŸ’˜
