IRL: Box of Style Topshop Fedora

My teenager took a few pictures earlier in the day. I tried to blowdry my hair straight for the pictures.

The hat feels comfortable pushed far back.

My hair has a mind of its own. It wants to curl back up. This is how the hat looks wearing it pushed back.

 


My husband took a few pictures of me wearing the hat. It does not fit correctly on me. I did my best to blow dry my hair straight for the pictures. It photographs better straight than curly.

The hat is pushed forward on my head. The rim is shaped to face up. It’s hard to shape the sat.

The rim is folded down in this picture.

I’m going for the mysterious look.

My teenage son told me the hat would look better on someone less mature. My husband wanted to know why I was spending a $100.00 on a subscription box that sends men hats. No playing sexy park ranger tonight.

    I love the hat with your hair color. Would sell my firstborn for that color naturally. I think it works for you.

    You guys… She sent me some of the pics before she posted this and I was like I LOVE YOUR HAIR!!!!!!

    I really like the hat!!!! I like that it is mysterious.

    If I had the hat I would wear it around town acting like I was Carmin San Diego

      Thank you 🙂 Our readers are good for my ego. Now I have the Carin San Diego song stuck in my head.

        I just saw this but I was beaten to the punch with the Carmin reference!

        That show was so awesome. However even as a kid I knew I would suck at the last map thingie.

    Allow me to add to the pile of love your hair comments. It’s awesome! So, I know Miss Rachel is supposed to push me out of my fashion comfort zone, but I think a floppy fedora might be a bridge too far for me. It just doesn’t look right at all with my jaw-length hair. But my SO loves it when I wear any kind of hat at all, so maybe I’ll tramp around the woods in it for him. At one point in my life I did want to be a park ranger . . .

    I’d really love to see a cloche hat pop up in a subscription box. Can we get the goats working on this?

    Heh, I loved the sexy park ranger and Carmen San Diego comments =) I would personally not want a hat in a subscription box because my head is:
    A. HUGE [back in high school, the woman measuring my head for my graduation cap made sure to point out it was the biggest head she’d measured in a while; teen girl self esteem: 0%] and
    B. topped with lots of fluffy, curly hair that I generally pull back into a ponytail or poof.
    Though the San Diego packable visor I swapped for from MSA is AMAZING, the only hat I’ve ever had that fits, and my boyfriend complements me every time I wear it. Hats that fit FTW!

    ps: As I type this on my lounge chair, my cat is sleeping on my back.
