Skimlinks Test High on Luxe: Challenge day 9 : Actually wear the hat you claim you can’t pull off. http://t.co/W9aUv7gmgo

Challenge day 9 : Actually wear the hat you claim you can’t pull off.

Ok, so I absolutely adore hats….on other people!
I have bought a few hats, just for them to be thrown over a bed post or stuffed to the back of the wardrobe.
I always wear a straw trilby type hat in the summer and on holiday but that is about as adventurous as I get
. I bought this hat that I am wearing about 2 weeks ago because I thought it matched my new coat perfectly and promised myself that I would wear it. I haven't until today.
So I bit the bullet and went for it. I must admit I felt quite “regal”for some reason, maybe because in an old fashioned mind set I always associate winter hats with rather wealthy folk! So feeling quite proud of myself for being brave, one last look in the mirror and I grabbed my bag to waltz out of the door when my 7yr old fell about laughing saying “Mum what are you doing you look like Indiana Jones” ……All illusions duly shattered!!!

Have a great weekend. 


Tomorrow is “Mix high end with something under £100” come and see what I choose.


Take care

  1. Love the blue fur on the coat. I had a huge aversion to hats forever. I thought they looked so cute on other people,but I just couldn't wear them. I started making myself wear a hat every once in awhile back in the fall and now I love them!
