A piece of wisdom if you please: Saying you don’t look good in hats is like saying you don’t look good in shoes. You just haven’t found the right one yet.

Millinery Operations goes out on the third Thursday of each month; in the meantime, here’s three posts you might have missed that are worth the attention!
