Hi folks
I've got a friend in France, who really wants to get hold of an Amish-style straw hat for the summer. He's found loads on US websites, but the shipping is too much.
Does anyone know of a French distributer/seller for these?
cheers
Been wearing the one on my avatar almost every day, since I bought it mid December. It's a not-vintage, not-expensive, Linney & Co.
But is my one and only fur felt....and I love it! :D
Fantastic thread, Rue!!
My wife and I are getting into the habit of taking the laptop to bed (is the only quiet place away from the kids! lol) and watching classic DVDs. We are working our way through a box set of Cary Grant....and want to watch "High Society" and "Singing In the Rain" asap...
so which parts of a jacket are lined in a half-lined? Ive only ever had a couple of suits in my life...and they've been cheap, off the peg, marks & spencers ones, lol
OMG!!!! I'm going to show my wife this thread! I've only got two wool felts (and about to acquire my first fur)...and she's already saying "why do you want any more?" lol
yeah that's the conclusion I came to.
It was a grey Biltmore on ebay (went for £16 + £5 postage). very tempting but I always figure, if I had reservations about an ebay item...then its better to let it go and wait for a really special item to turn up :)
would 'tape' be capable of reducing internal circumference by 2cm?
the one im thinking of is 61cm and im a 59cm.
or is there a better way of reducing it?
I wear one most days. It's only been a couple of weeks since I got my first hat, and already I feel "naked" when I go out without one :o
Mind you...I had to keep my hand on it this morning, it was sooo windy!!
i think it looks nice. Its on my watch list, but i wont bid on it as its too big for me. But always interesting to know the ball park figure that these things go for (its all useful info for the future). Good luck! Pick a max price you can go to and dont go over...even though its always tempting lol
Would you believe it, there was a shop selling Christy's hats, not 10 minutes walk from my house!!!
here's my second hat...

All I need now is a dark grey, with wide black band, and I'm set for a while
