    Grin What do you love about hats?

    Hats! Quite marvellous, are they not? Whether to protect your noggin, keep your ears warm or shield your neck or eyes from the harshness of the sun, these accessories are both practical, and an instant way to add a little flair to your style.

    A friend knitted me a beret for my birthday this year, and it's quite lovely. Here I will end with my second favourite poem about hats, by Richard Brautigan:

    Kafka's Hat

    With the rain falling
    surgically against the roof,
    I ate a dish of ice cream
    that looked like Kafka's hat.

    Brought to you by your friends at the CCP. Because we care.

    I prefer bandannas really, at least at work. I rarely wear hats with the exception of toques in the winter.

    I changed my avatar for the first time in thirteen years.

    I think it's actually fourteen.

    Yet your signature is still very pink.

    I think I would just melt if a man tipped his hat to me.

    Is it odd to base one's entire outfit around a hat? because I do that sometimes

    Sometimes my hair is less perfect than usual (not often...but sometimes), in those instances I have about 5 beanies that I can pick from. Also, when my hair was longer they were great for keeping it out of my face at work.

    I look sexier with a hat AND it helps deal with the constant precipitation. win/win.

    Well the top of my scalp is highly susceptible to sunburn so I have to wear a hat if I'm going to be outside for more than ten minutes.

    Good thing that only happens about once a year
