Hi Everyone .... Looking for folks in the KS area.... been lurking too...now ready to visit and get aquainted .
Hi!Just wanted to say hi and welcome to the new ladies I've seen around the lounge! Please let us know a little about yourself, like how you found the lounge, what your favorite eras are, etc. I love learning about new people!
Welcome again, ladies!
Hi!
I know your post says "ladies" but the thread says "and gents" so I figured this would be a good place for my "dévoilement."
I'm a 20-year-old groom-to-be who loves history and travel. I found TFL when I was looking for a hat online (surprise-surprise) and instantly got caught up in it as my family has always either written about history or were making it!
My favourite era would be difficult to specify, as I like some things from most any era. I think I would have to say the 20s-30s-40s, despite two wars and the great depression... It was an era of exploration, adventure, education, and yet through all that they still hadn't yet lost that air of bravery, chivalry, honor... PANACHE
Yea, they may have been difficult days, but in many ways they were some of the best decades in American history!
Hello - I'm a 44 year old man who was born in the wrong decade. I have always loved the '20's, '30's & '40's. I know, from speaking with folks who lived that era, that those were tough times. But they were also good times. I think this was the last time the country had real style - architecture, clothing, movies, cars. You name it. I love Art Deco design.
I found this site like so many others probably have - searching for info on Fedoras. I just purchased my first - a modest brown teardrop style with turned down brim from Miller Hats. I love the way I feel when I wear it! I like it so much that I ordered a matching hat in black the day after I received it. It should arrive this Thursday.
I had no idea there were so many folks like me - folks who like hats! I honestly feel we lost something when men & women stopped wearing hats. I know nothing about hats, so I plan to lurk here - learning all I can. I would like to eventually purchase a couple of really nice hats, but want to do my due diligence first.

Yes, indeed, Yeps. I even won a copy of the latest Jasper Fforde novel "One of Our Thursdays are Missing" on the merits of my online moniker alone.
Welcome to the Lounge Seth. You'll not find a nicer more knowledgeable group of folks anywhere on the internet. I see you're from NC. Same for me, in the eastern part of the state.
Welcome to all the new members!
Don't forget that as you post on the Fedora Lounge you will become a "vested" member at 15 posts.
That opens up some areas to you such as the ability to send and receive PM's (private messages).
The Events Section is then a good one to check now and again to see what is going on or post something you've heard about that has some type of vintage theme.
Enjoy!
I absolutely adore that series. It is always good to find another fan.
