Red Berets at the Louvre |
I just had a wonderful visit from my adorable, spirited, dynamic, world traveling niece. Of course she agreed to model some hats (despite the 30 degree celsius temperature outside). She is a bit of a hat girl anyway and was recently seen sporting a red beret around Paris, France. It pairs so nicely with the red Converse running shoes I think! We spent a couple of lovely days felting hats together and as it turns out, Hilary is a very good hat maker. A natural in fact!
