Talk about one of the best mail days EVER: After running errands in town, I came back home and found this lovely pile of packages in front of my door...
The little box contained a fabulously-wild vintage felt tilt hat with multiple pink faux birdies and a vintage veil! This hat operates under my personal philosophy of "the more birds, the better." I had to do a massive repair job on the birds using glue, but the hat is now fixed and looks wonderful!
The larger package contained my early-birthday-present-to-myself vintage late-1940s kitty coat! It's in a bit rougher shape than I would have liked (lots of small tears and worn spots), but it fits me perfectly and I love the style! I have always wanted to own a vintage kitty coat, and while I cherish my cape, it's too light to wear on chilly winter evenings. Now I can choose between a cape and a coat!
