For the second installment of the C-hat-auqua series, it’s getting a little funky with the lampshade-turned-hat. It really is… something. I have no idea what the correct period for this piece is (anyone want to weigh in?), but it seems appropriate for the excluded flapper. That girl who wasn’t exactly a wallflower, but certainly didn’t have that joie de vivre radiating from her daily existential struggle. I just want yell, “Girl, the reason you don’t fit in is because you have a lampshade on your head. Get a cloche.”
“All the time the flapper is laughing and dancing, there’s a feeling of tragedy underneath. She’s unhappy and disillusioned, and that’s what people sense.”

Spectacular headwear Rebecca! A true find that would thrill any hat collector! You wear it well and I love the emotion that you portray in your photos. Brava!
I don’t know, sweetie, I’m wearing a cloche today but still don’t fit in! Love your blog–so fresh and sassy. Those travel pics in your archive are GORGEOUS. More, please.
Thanks Marea! I hope to get more travel pics up soon– just have to save up to get back on the road 😉

Thanks Anna! I’m going to try to do more of them (probably on Fridays) in the future, as they are quick photoshoots, but such fun ideas. Thanks for your support!
