I just saw
For some time I've been coveting a blue straw to go with this summer blazer, today, whilst visiting friends in London, I bought it from the Chrtstys shop. They didn't have my size in stock but promised me that it would be on my head by the end of the week.

I just saw a couple very nice blue Panama straw hats, Cuenca i think, at a mall in Guayaquil, Ecuador. It's the color of the national champion soccer team, Emelec.

Also saw a couple straw hats that were crocheted, not hand woven, also blue.

Cuenca seems to be trying out some modern touches with their hats. Some interesting, others not so much. They had some stingy brim hats with patterns of colored straw woven in that were pretty cool looking... ady least I imagine they would be for/ the right customer.

Wormser with an eBay aloha-esque shirt for me and a Hawaiian for my son at his end of year school fair.

Red, I forgot to reply to you in the 'Sovereign' thread. The felt & quality really are first class. no more than I expected from such a fine company.
Tina has been busy again, this is part of a certain 'look.' This is what the rest of the look will be like. By the way, the felt will be replaced by a new straw from Esther. hats 002.JPG Lazy-Hazy-Days.jpg

Perfect, just perfect!
You're too kind, thank you.
Such generous compliments, thank you, to you too.

On one of many trips to the US, we discovered an out of town discount store. There wasn't much that caught my eye but I did like the Route 66 shirt. The problem was, the only sizes that they had left were XXXL, it looked like a maternity gown on me. Back home, at some festival or other, my lady came up to me with that look of triumph. Ever since the disappointment of the Route 66 shirt in America, she had been keeping an eye out for something similar. In her hand was three and a half yards of Route 66 fabric. The result was brilliant. I get asked so often: "Where did you get your shirt?" And a disappointed look when I explain that my wife made it. I love it when something is unique.

A Route 66 shirt is classic. I wish my wife was so talented. Well actually she is, the time needed is the factor.
