i don't really have a great anecdote to go along with my most recently thrifted item. i was early for a doctor's appointment so i popped into my second favorite thrift store and bee-lined it to this baby. it fit my head, i do hats well, and i bought it. (although i will admit to getting a bit of a warm fuzzy feeling when i saw photos of beyonce wearing the same hat when visiting a museum in new york in a magazine in the waiting room.)
although i didn't exactly have hate for this bow, i did feel it was a bit big for the casual look i wanted. an easy fix - just two stitches to remove with scissors. snip, snip, done. so now i feel like it really fits in perfectly with my CAPSULE COLLECTION. i love it when things come together.
i was unable to find anything on the internet about this particular label so i pose the question to you - what do you think? eighties? seventies or sixties? it makes me think of department store junior miss lines. i'd love your thoughts on this.
and, plus, also, there is a clear marking on the inside that reads "genuine furfelt". in researching that i found THIS INFORMATION to be absolutely fascinating. who knew felt was so interesting?
