  • In the late winter most of us crave color, a warm breeze and to feel the heat of the sun.  New growth shows itself slowly as the snow recedes.  There is a sense of joy, of hope and new beginnings.  Plans start to form for getting (and staying) outside, perhaps even seeing family or friends we've not been able to see...  While Covid-19 has made the last year very difficult and perhaps has made the winter feel especially long, I think there is renewed hope and relaxation with the thought of the arrival of spring. This hat is so very cheerful and spring-like.  The silk is upcycled from a skirt that has embroidered flowers at the top and bottom, the middle being a pile of delicate leaves.  I'm thrilled with how they've clustered on the hat, as it looks as if your head is a garden bed blooming beautiful flowers!  A vintage turban design with a modern twist using upcycled fashion.  What a bouquet!
  • Eleanor

    $250.00
    This is a cloche/turban with a vintage feel and modern sensibilities.  I named her Eleanor, to honor Eleanor Roosevelt who made such a significant impact on civil and women's rights.  A woman who carved out a new role for first wives and pioneered women's rights.  I would like to think she would like this understated yet eye-catching hat.  One of a kind, sensible and fashion forward.  "The Future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." Eleanor Roosevelt
  • Francoise

    $230.00
    Fun, flirty, flowers!  This hat style is from the 1960's but styled in vintage 1940's fashion.  This bright turquoise hat is shaped on an asymmetrical block and worn on the side of the head, held in place with an elastic.  It is a piece which can be dressed up or down, depending on your occasion.  From a wedding, to the races, to a night out with friends.  A great piece to add to your wardrobe!
  • Genevieve

    $225.00
    This hat is made for a woman that appreciates classic style, clean lines, and muted colors.  Its fedora styling brings to mind some of the famous female spies and intelligence workers of the first and second world wars such as Edith Cavell and Genevieve Feinstein.  This hat pairs stylishly with a timeless trench, but can be modernized with a basic sweater, jeans, and a simple handbag.  Whether you are undercover or out for coffee, this hat provides you warmth, substance, and style.
  • Hester

    $190.00
    A modern take on a vintage turban.  This "kitchen sink" turban has a blend of many fabulous prints all fused into one hat.  One of a kind design, it is a casual head-turning topper for the hat-venturous!  While sensible (it will not crush your hair, will keep you warm in the winter/fall/spring, and will defend you against unfavorable weather), it has a wonderful flair and joie de vivre! A unique hat to match your unique personality!
  • Meredith

    $220.00
    Rich jewel-tones swirl horizontally across this hat, from the crimped crown to the wide and asymmetrical brim.   This hat is a head-turner in style and color and will match nearly everything in your wardrobe!  Casual or dressy, it can accompany you on a walk in the park, a shop at the farmer's market, or a night out on the town.
  • Red beret

    $185.00
    This hat has a sleek silhouette, a whimsical assortment of patterns, and a deep red color that will catch everyone's eye.  From every angle, this hat has you looking fabulous.  It is versatile for casual wear with a denim jacket, or a night out on the town with a felt coat;  it can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. "A hat is a flag, a shield, a bit of armor, and the badge of femininity. A hat is the difference between wearing clothes and wearing a costume; it's the difference between being dressed and being dressed up; it's the difference between looking adequate and looking your best. A hat is to be stylish in, to glow under, to flirt beneath, to make all others seem jealous over, and to make all men feel masculine about. A piece of magic is a hat."   - Martha Sliter.
  • This is a perfect gossamer hat to get if you're wanting something comforting on fall days, a hat you can dress up for an event, or keep casual for weekday wear.  Black and royal blue silk mixed with royal blue wool and a fun lining silk, this hat is the one you'll reach for when you just need a hat to be there for you, without much thought or consideration. In this "post-covid" life things seem overwhelming at times both in complexity or busy-ness, and maybe just slowing down and simplifying is the way through it.  KISS principle (keep is simple sweetie) seems juuuuust about right.

    This 1920's inspired cloche is a modern take on an old design.  Like you're the technicolor girl dropped back in a vintage black and white film.  This hat is VIBRANT.  Beautiful turquoise wool and silk with hazel and turquoise highlights in the applique across the bottom of the crown.  Beads and sequins dot across the fabric.  The crown is deep, meaning you can pull it down to channel the coquette 20's look, or leave it a bit higher, depending on taste (or weather conditions).

    This fedora is made from an upcycled animal print dress featuring flecks of gold, deep greens and grays.  It immediately made me think of the woods, somewhere I like to escape to in all seasons, be it on snowshoes or with rubber boots (our woods are pretty muddy all year).  Casual and soft, this fedora is very comfortable to wear and warm on your head!  Nature is also reflected in the merino wool with deep charcoal gray and mustard highlights.  Such a rugged yet delicate beauty. P.S.  Ozzy was with us on our shoot.  He's completely deaf and was hoooooooowling with excitement to be outside in the woods.  For that last photograph, of course I joined him.  I believe I was as excited as he was.  :)

    Reports have it that F. Scott Fitzgerald's character Daisy, in the Great Gatsby, was modeled after Genevra King.  It is written that Ginerva "remained for Fitzgerald an archetype for the alluring, independent and upper class woman, ultimately unattainable by someone of a modest social background like himself".  I see Daisy wearing this cloche in this modern day, highlighting her casual classic beauty, drawing draw the eye and admiration of passers-by...

    The silk for this gossamer hat was up-cycled from a very intricately beaded silk blouse.  SO vibrant with fabulous detail, this hat reminds me of my garden right now (August)!  Heaps of colorful perennials providing pollen and nectar to honeybees, hummingbirds and various other flying insects.  I will often sit quietly and watch the action around my garden beds, witnessing the little ecosystem and marveling in its beauty.  That feeling, that "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh", is what this hat does to me.  Capture summer and take that feeling of calm and warmth with you into your winter and fall seasons with this gorgeous gossamer hat.
