The Hat. I never feel so fine, so sassy, so flirty as when I wear a hat. Something about that final accessory just defines my character for the day, giving a little pizazz to what could have been just another outfit. I think we need to decorate our hair more often, frame our faces and strut out under the brim of a fabulous hat.
Yes Please! (above: Mer Pleine de Vie Victorian top hat by Vanite De La Mort and below: The Holly by Topsy Turvy Design)
And for those days when something a little smaller, a little daintier is in order, we need a Fascinator!
This one, the Flirty Fascinator (also by Topsy Turvy Design), really needs to adorn my long brown tresses (hint hint to anyone who wants to shower me with love!) while I sip a cinnamon sprinkled rusty nail in Chez Gaudy.
And how could I say no to a huge bloom fluttering in my hair? (below: The Viktoria by Pink Tigers Den)
And when we need something even more subtle, what about a fabulous headband? I know you just posted the work of Vie Moderne, but I can't stop thinking about her gorgeous feathered head pieces. I am trying to decide between these two, but loving them both equally (top: Peacock Feather and Leather Flower Headband and bottom: Pheasant Feather and Leather Flower Headband).
And because I am truly a flower child at heart, I love these "Hippie" headbands by Mary Jane Frances.
'Till we tip our hats to each other next, au revoir my friend.

lovely lovely post, and I was JUST thinking of you this morning when I saw some guy wearing a hat - and thinking of how well you incorporate your hats into the every day.
I always buy hats and then have NO where to keep them so they get lost or loose their shape. I NEED A HAT RACK.
On a different subject, the feel of the Holly hat picture is the photo shoot I want...
Oh, that would be a beautiful photo shoot! Yes, yes!
And a hat rack, hmm... sounds like a new search and capture mission.
p.s. i think the green best suits you. you are green.
well, when you aren't white, turqoise, or brown...then you are green. then comes orange. :)
har, i just found this one for you!

LOVED this post little Umber.
Just loved it.
I adore hats. I like to pull one side of the brim down over just one eye so that I feel slightly hidden.
Last summer while in Europe, whenever I found myself on a solo stroll in the evening, I was NEVER without a hat.
A hat = protection from all sorts of things from banshees to women who want nothing more than to steal your hair color.
Well done.
Hats off to you my darling larkies!
