Modern Millinery
I bought this houndstooth fedora from Walgreens a couple of months ago for $10. I love houndstooth and at just ten bucks, I found it hard to resist and bought it on a whim. It didn't occur to me at the time of purchase that it looked like a $10 hat! When I got home from Walgreens that day, I tried so hard to make it work but there was something weird about it when I tried it on. Perhaps it was the cut of the brim, I don't know. Well, the hat's been sitting on my hat rack since, nicely collecting dust. I haven't worn it -- until today.
I was going through my jewelry box this morning and as my fingers brushed aside the glass button brooches I made a couple of weeks ago, a thought occurred to me that they would look great on my houndstooth fedora. I'm glad I tried it because I'm pleased with the way the it looks. It's amazing what two small pieces of jewelry can do for a $10 hat!
