Haberdashery

If there's one thing the Brits love at parties, it is dressing up. I've enjoyed seeing the parade of costumes for the (primarily) undergraduate themed discos ('pavs') every week at Churchill.

This weekend, I tried my hand at costuming in preparation for a 1920s-themed night at college. Saturday morning, Jackie and I headed into town to find hats. We had fun browsing the racks at charity shops until we found personal fits. Jackie's hat was a cute tan brimmed hat we found in a shop supporting heart disease research; mine was a fuzzy violet cap that fits tight over my head at Cancer Research UK. After we got back, I tried my hand at haberdashery to dress up my look with some unconventional materials. I was quite pleased with the results.
