hat envy

okay, i'll admit it:  i watch a LOT of movies.  really.  no, really.  with so many solo hours of printing, packaging, callligraphy, etc., having a movie on keeps me going.  i watch it all, though have a particular soft-spot for anything italian, period films, and the classics.  anyway, last week at sf magazine's fallfest i had some stylin' customers, and this gorgeous girl in her fabulous vintage floppy hat (also perfect for the bright & sunny day) got me thinking..

and here in bonnie & clyde (not a floppy but she's so cute!)

so i did a little research for ya, and if i had the extra cash i'd go for one or two of these floppies and floppy fedoras:  free people, accessorize, rag & bone or rag & bone.
