And Anthropologie has just what I want! Its Hideaway Hat (very apt name) has a 8-inch brim which, at first sight, seems a tad crumpled like an old farmer's worn-out sun hat. But floppy doesn't mean sloppy. The brim is actually lined with wires that will adjust to the whims of the wearer (which would me yours truly)!
I love the lazy, nonchalant look the Hideaway Hat brings out. The slightly crumpled brim resembles a lotus leaf, no? If I have my way, I would dance around in the barley fields with nothing but a cotton white dress, ruffia straw floppy hat and a flute of champange in my hand, singing to a Sixpence None The Richer number.
Other than ruffia straw and polyester, the floppy hat comes in velvet, wool, satin and even fur! But for more pragmatic purposes, I think the straw, satin ones would make more sense in tropically Singapore.
Now I just need to get The Mother to stop nagging at me for my excessive collection of headwear... =P
