boyish new hat

rachaelhat

Here's the Koolhaas hat I just finished. I carefully made the girl's version (with one less repeat of the lattice pattern), even though it wouldn't cover my ears, because I hoped to look chic and feminine in my new hat. When Rachael saw me in it she immediately exclaimed "Mommy, you look like a boy!' As you can see, Rachael looks cute and girlish in the same hat.

Later, she was telling me that a girl shouldn't wear stripy tee-shirts if she doesn't want to look like a lesbian. I pointed out that I have several stripy tee-shirts that I wear often, and don't consider especially dykey, and she told me nothing I wear could make me look more dykey than I already do! Maybe that's why cute boys don't flirt with me any more....

You look cute and adorable in anything. Don't listen to that Rachael who is now shrieking with laughter at her wit. She doesn't understand true personal style.
