Several people tried my hat on, including my father, who looked perfect in it, and all the women who tried it looked adorable.
Of all the comments I received about my hat, here are the gems:
"You look like one of those bad-ass G-men in the movies!"
and...
"Sort of a 'Great Gatsby' thing?"
It was a gas!
Thanks for the memories...
