Your hair is perfect peeking out from under the brim.  Day Vies on "This is not a beret,,," https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-is-not-a-beret#post-1101001 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 17:13:02 +0000 Day Vies 1101001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I am not sure about the type of hat, I can only agree that it's not a beret. I adore berets and wore a cream one with my navy coat all through college. The down side of berets are they don't have a brim to keep the snow out of your eyes. This hat does I love the shape as well. Quite flattering. carambola on "This is not a beret,,," https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-is-not-a-beret#post-1100991 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 17:01:31 +0000 carambola 1100991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Whatever it is, it is fantastic on you!

It is adorable on you.

Thanks, Merwoman.  I'm so glad Angie's post reminded me that I have it.   merwoman on "This is not a beret,,," https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-is-not-a-beret#post-1100700 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 01:06:55 +0000 merwoman 1100700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Well whatever it is, it's a smashing hat and looks fantastic on you! Time to put it back in circulation Suz on "This is not a beret,,," https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-is-not-a-beret#post-1100697 Fri, 29 Nov 2013 01:02:26 +0000 Suz 1100697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hmmm. It's cool! I love it on you.  I would call it closer to a pork pie hat than a beret. Thought it's not quite that, either. Perhaps a modified one.  JG on "This is not a beret,,," https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-is-not-a-beret#post-1100672 Thu, 28 Nov 2013 23:48:35 +0000 JG 1100672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Not a beret, but a great hat. Flattering, and I love that it can be molded into different looks.What is the material? Is it winter weight? Catnip on "This is not a beret,,," https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-is-not-a-beret#post-1100664 Thu, 28 Nov 2013 23:04:31 +0000 Catnip 1100664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ is it?  Angie's post on berets a few days ago reminded me that I had one.  When I found it, I realized that it probably isn't a beret because it has a brim.  But it's somewhat like a beret in that it's flexible and can be positioned in many different ways.  This hat is so old I can't remember where I bought it.  The label says Jean-Charles Brosseau and made in France.  Does anyone know what kind of hat it is?
