I remember watching this episode of the The Voice and the words of advice that she gave to these 8 aspiring singers.

The Message Beneath Your Hat: The Transformative Powers of Headwear with Rosegal
There is power in a hat. It creates a sense of mystery. A sense of style. It gives the vibe of confidence. And strength. It makes people notice. And wonder. And even question. Who is that under that hat? Are they hiding from something? From someone? Or are they just hiding something? *This is a sponsored post. I was given this hat in exchange for a blog post. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own. “I have a hat. It is graceful and feminine and gives me a certain dignity, as if I were attending a state funeral or something. Someday I may get up enough courage to…
