Grandmother's Hat
I mistakenly typed the title of this post in a google search, and what pops up? A variety of rose that looks very similar to the fabric roses on my head! How awesome is that!!
I have been going through old photos, and I came across these. Seeing them again made me bemoan the fact that there are so few opportunities to wear a lovely chapeau in this post-COVID19 world.
These photos were taken almost three years ago at the Legion of Honor in San Francisco; I find a museum is always a wonderful opportunity to wear a hat.
But I may just have to dust off the old hat box and pick something to wear, just because it's a Thursday.

THAT WAISTLINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI do wear one hat I made every time I go out; I needed something with a bigger brim as summer sun hurts my eyes. I do love this one; a little Frida, a little like a midsummer headdress my grandmother had. I miss museums and the Legion of Honor. I love their courtyard. My sister and i took about a jillion photos of each other the last time we were there. I have one of them next to my desk right now.
