Fashionable Flashback : Hatted Pale Pink Pixie

| {Fashion illustration : Hatted Pale Pink Pixie © Shell-Sherree} |
This is my kind of hat. Simple, elegant and large enough to shelter an armful of kittens or puppies if needed. And I challenge new freckles to get past this one. {While I love my freckles, I have ample to suit my current needs.}
Today's fashion illustration is somewhat inspired by a vintage Vogue cover with Jean Shrimpton ~ who, incidentally, is my new inspiration-obsession, so prepare for more where today's came from !
Where are we off to ? How about the races for a start? Pink champagne fountains are popping in our marquee, along with nose powdering stations and complimentary gold-trimmed paper fans should the temperatures unexpectedly rise. And on that note ...
Happy Fashionable Flashback to you !

Oh if only I could pull off bangs like Jean!
ReplyDeleteMe, too, Debs !! It's my new mission in life ...
DeleteCould be the races, or a stroll through a lovely park. I have a "gardening" hat that is about that big, however much less fashionable. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'll bet you look very fetching in it, Ms M ! A stroll in the park sounds perfectly lovely ...
DeleteI ove this hat and your drawing of it is super jaunty - your signature even more so!
ReplyDeleteLast time I wore a big hat in public, some complete stranger walked up to me and told me it was ugly (it was, but was that necessary?) Had to tackle Mr V to keep him off the guy.
That was more about the stranger than about your hat, PA. What kind of jerk would do that?
DeleteDitto to Petrea's thoughts on the matter, PA !!
DeletePS: A jaunty signature, hey? I like the idea of a jaunty signature. Thank you.
I looked up Jean. 72 years old and still stylish.
ReplyDeleteSomehow I'm not surprised to hear that, Petrea.
DeleteI'm not a "hat person," so I admire even more someone who can pull off this look. And I'll bet you're absolutely fetching in a chapeau, ma belle.
ReplyDeleteHats really are 'one of those things', aren't they, dear Alexa ~ you're either a hat person or not. No middle ground and just luck of the draw! Merci, ma chère, for your vote of 'hat confidence' in me. I'm told they suit me, so hopefully that's correct as I do enjoy wearing them!
