This last year though, my usual haunt has been a little lacking in anything that inspires me... that probably translates as no bright colours!
However, whilst I was out trying to replace yet another pair of missing school trousers I happened upon these lovelies in Matalan:
Pic is over exposed because I couldn't get the detail without.
The red one is by far and away my favourite, yet I bought the black one first....because it would go with more things...Got to love logic! Mr Sparklz sent me back for the red one and wondered why I'd bothered with the black when he saw it on me. But affordable cloche hats don't come along that often and it WILL go with more things ;p
Slightly bizarrely, I note that the Matalan pics appear to show the hats the wrong way up. The label is fixed where they have the front so it's not me being daft and wearing it the wrong way round. Perhaps the designers and the manufactures were working on different concepts.....either way a great hat for eight quid.


Fab, I love a good hat! Cloche hats dont work on me - too roundy on my roundy face, I need a wide sweeping brim, which means "everyday" hats are a struggle, I envy you your ability to pull off a cloche! xx
ReplyDeleteI remember being totally in love with The House of Eliott - can't do the outfits, drop wists being a big no-no - but cloche's have stayed on the desire list. Wow Just checking the spelling of Eliott to discover that the final seres wasn't left as a forever clff hanger on purpose. Just dropped by the BBC! If I could have been Evie back then I would have! x
DeleteThey're beautiful! I love cloche hats but don't think they look very good on me :(
