I know, I know. This is a hat that someone who
pledges her virginity to her father wears to church on Easter Sunday. Fear not. I have not lied to you about my credits as a card-carrying liberal athiest Jewish white trash girl from the suburbs of Chicago who now lives in NYC. I do, however, love the crap out of this hat, even as it makes me cringe in horror at its awfulness. (I've never been crazy about the big red flower.) The hat has been part of my stylin' wardrobe since high school at least, but possibly as far back as junior high.
I wore this hat every day while I was in India. I am fairly sure that several people laughed at me as I walked around in such a ridiculous thing. I also wore it 12 years ago to Passsover dinner at Husband's parents' house. It was my first time meeting them. I am fairly certain that they wanted to know what kind of lunatic their son was dating. Oh, they know now.
Mwa ha ha ha.
I love the hat. It's something I could wear to embarass my daughter in public with. She at "that age"...ahhh...it's good times for mom. Well, that and let's remember, I bought a pair of boots at Wal-Mart this winter that look like I strapped to dead ferrets to my feet for warmth, so...
ReplyDeleteI love the hat. As long as it keeps you from getting sunburned (and it's been around a while!) I'm for it.

ReplyDelete--Suzanne, you made my morning with this. I don't even know you, but from what I've read here, we could have been separated at birth. Awesome rants. Thanks. I'm Lisa.
That pledge-article was hilarious and awful, btw.
ReplyDeletei'm still getting over the fact that you wore tha hat to Husband's family's house for dinner... wow, that takes balls i have to admit.
ReplyDeleteOh hush. It is a darling hat.
ReplyDeleteI am so loving that hat. Why are you not crazy about the flower? It 'makes' the hat!
