If a woman rebels against high heeled shoes, she should take care to do it in a very smart hat. (George Bernard Shaw)
This past Sunday was certainly a glam one! Have you heard? Portobello hats had it's grand opening! And I'm not using the term "grand" lightly. With the red carpet rolled out, the Academy Awards steaming live, and little pettifores in the shape of fine vintage hats, this was an evening to remember. Guests arrived in their best hats, while snapping up new handmade ones. Rubbing shoulders withe the owners, every one was looking their very best - I even caught a little girl getting into the fun!
Portobello hats is a blissful space of both vintage and new caps that will make you believe in magic. With vintage hat boxes lining both the floor and ceiling you are transported to another space and time.
And as if to prove that believing in magic is worthwhile, I had a woman come up to me and say: "I know your face! I have seen your pictures!". Well isn't that fancy!
Tell me, do you enjoy a good hat?
A big thank you to Jennifer Webley and Amy Smith to having me!
