JfL Hats

Shhhh

PeepSideshow Darkward2 Comments

Actually, don’t be quiet; tell everyone you know that Vintage Fair 2017 is closing!

You will want to rush over to get this dress from Senzafine. It is just so feminine and perfect for a summer stroll. And I am so excited about this hat from JfL! It’s not at Vintage Fair, but rather at the mainstore. John specialises in hats for men, but this one, in my opinion, is just for the ladies. It comes in the pink I’m wearing, plus a classic black and white. Girls, if you haven’t been to JfL before, this is reason enough to give it a visit.

I shot this photo at Paris Je T’aime, home to Kalopsia and Vagabond, among others. And Shhhh…I did a bit of shopping while I was there.

But that’s our secret.

Recollection

Check out the stunning necklace and earrings from Baiastice at The Liaison Collaborative. These are truly statement pieces and you only have a couple of days left to grab them at the event before it closes on March 30.

A few days ago I promised a closer look at the latest fedora from JfL Hats, and here it is. The texture of the suede just makes me want to run my fingers across it, then smooth it back down. This is, once again, the bright pink, but all of the hats in this release are lighter colours than the usual JfL pallete. They are perfect for the ladies, but will still work great for the guys. Do go check them out – they are new releases at the main store.

As I was scrolling through my JfL Hats folder to find this photo, I realised that I have been blogging for John for almost four years. He is the designer I have blogged for the longest. He has believed in me – stuck with me – as I have slowly become a bit better at blogging. OK, I can say easily that I have become a better photographer during that time. I don’t actually have the first photo I blogged for JfL – those images were stored on a back up hard drive that sadly failed – but the images I have go back to October of 2013. And I know I was blogging for JfL Hats for a few months before that. Looking through those images, I smiled, I cringed and laughed out loud at my efforts.

All in all, it was a lovely recollection.

As Pierrot Watches On

I really want to get this post in before The Liaison Collaborative and Lost & Found close in just a few days. The *Easy Breezy* swing with pose that I am featuring from Le Poppycock will be at TLC until March 30 and the lovely crocuses from [ keke ] will be at Lost & Found until April 1. They are both beautiful and will definitely make you feel like springtime has arrived. You can also get a peek of the newest release from JfL Hats, the Musician Fedora, this time in light colours. While JfL is mainly a men’s hat store, I feature them frequently and I am just thrilled to see that John has released lighter shades for this hat. There are even two shades of pink in the collection! You can just see the top of the bright pink version in this photo, but I will be giving you a better view of the hat later in the week.

I am also teasing you with the Devo Jeans from Razor from the March round of BishBox. More will be revealed from this Indie box in coming posts, as well.

I’m really enjoying my spring-filled garden, swinging away, as Pierrot watches on.
