New Year New Hat!
When is it a good time to update your look and don a new bonnet? Strike that, beret, no strike that ‘get ahead’ get a hat! With the temperatures plummeting in the New Year I was finding my ‘bonce’ was getting rather freezing…so to remedy this, I took a quick look as to what could ‘cure’ my head malaise. Well firstly I checked in at my local charity shop to find that Stephanie had had the same idea in mind, and was ‘resplendent’ in a woolly number with ears (not sure that would suit me..) but well it shows some ‘fashion forward’ thinking at least. On the high street and in the two markets I searched, the look was very blingy and with the ‘requisite’ pom pom on the top. Very cute and fun, and adding bling on a winter look struck me as something a ‘bit different’, though not for me I’m afraid..I’m much more ‘reserved and subdued’…plus I don’t think a pom pom hat is very ‘age appropriate’ for me unfortunately…or am I wrong? And ‘limiting’ myself? So I have to look elsewhere, I need something that will blend in with my particular ‘groove’..Oh well it’s back to the drawing board for me. So on my search went and in a further few charity shops I found some less ‘attention grabbing’ numbers plus some ‘sombrero inspired’? looks. Dear dear, why is it so difficult to get a plain hat these days??
Don’t you just love the drawn on eyelashes and lips?
an incognito look for those ‘hideaway’ days?
Finally is what I really need a sombrero? Think just a bit chilly for the moment…
