This hat is simply amazing. It’s all handmade by Behida of YellowField on etsy. I decided to order it before my big trip to Michigan last week and it was waiting for me when I got back to Texas. It arrived in a giant hat box and was carefully packed in tissue paper.

I have hand felted and shaped a cloche hat before (rather unsuccessfully) so I appreciate the craftsmanship and detail of this darling hat. The hat is altered to fit after you order it, so be sure to measure your head correctly or measure another cloche hat that fits your head well. It’s simply amazing from all angles and I received countless compliments when I wore it today. Please go visit Behida’s shop and ask for her hats for your holiday present!

    You look great. The hat looks very cute indeed. And that skirt. The whole outfit is darling. Very cute!

  4. I don’t know where to begin! This look is absolutely perfect, from the shoes to the blouse – and of course the hat brings it all to another level of awesomeness. I’m saving this for inspiration :)

    Hi Amelia! I doubt you remember me from Fayetteville – but we went to school together – I found you on the web again recently to my delight, and linked your site to talk about the Austin Garden Party that’s happening tomorrow (your pics are beautiful and perfect!) I hope you plan on coming!

    Hi Amanda!
    Yes of course I remember you :)
    I have three papers to write this evening so I won’t be attending, but do keep me in mind for future events! I think we’re facebook friends now so keep in touch!
