Vintage hat from Poland

My last name is Polish - did you know?

The editorial team at work had a 'field trip' last Friday on the rooftop of The Pilot in Yorkville last Friday - a fun morale-boosting event, let me tell you! - and our editor asked us to wear a 'crazy hat.'

Lacking a crazy hat I donned a glam one - a feathered felt hat I thrifted at Goodwill for $4.99 that says "Made in Poland" inside.

I wuv it. In between the beer and the laughs, my hat was unofficially voted most fashionable of the day.

Turns out the hats were a great idea as we were sitting and drinking in the sun for hours!

You can see my latest thrift acquisition on the lapel of my boyfriend jacket, a Pierre Bex Art Deco style pin picked up at Value Village for $2.99.

  2. Thanks Tricia C! Not sure when I'll ever wear it again but the glam pot in me couldn't leave it behind for $4.99!
