Goodbye Winter?

[poliphilo]

I started wearing a woolly hat this winter. Ailz's thinks it makes me look like an elf. This morning- when I was ever so kindly screwing the aerial back on the car- she addressed me as "Dobby"

I need to find a hat that suits me. Maybe I should indulge my Francophilia and buy myself a big, black beret. 

The snow has gone. It feels really mild. The wood pigeons are going "Hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo" like it was already spring.

The only thing about berets is that they do not cover your ears. Otherwise, I'm sure you'd look attractive and devil-may-care if you wore one,

VERY cold here today, 10 degrees F

I'd sort of like to look like Gary Cooper in For Whom The Bell Tolls.....

Yes, get a beret! They're warm, stylish, and fit in your pocket when you don't need one. I love mine.

My mind is made up. I shall start looking around for one.

I could make you a hat with earflaps; then Aliz could call you "Jane."
But for heaven's sake, stay away from long scarves, lest anyone call you "Isadora."

Jane? Earflaps? No, I'm afraid you've got me there...

But I've never cared for long scarves since that unfortunate incident with the Bugatti.

Ah right- thanks. That's a fandom I have't got into yet.

I was racking my brain- Jane Austen, Jane Eyre, Jane Fonda.....

I tend towards odd elfishness regardless of what I wear. I tried to avoid the Dobby look this year by purchasing a hat with little bat horns on it instead of the usual wool knit cap.


The first day I wore it into work one of my coworkers Dubbed me "pixie". It stuck.

O-o

I could send you a chullo!

Erm, thank you- but i don't think it would do a great deal for my street-cred.
