It’s not just the emails and comments from the blog. It was everyone at the show in Nashville … “I LOVE that hat!” And they were all struck with jealousy when they found out they could not just go to J. Crew or Anthroplogie.com and get one for themselves. It was custom made by my very good friend, Kyla MacTaggart.

Luckily she IS still designing. I don’t know if she will make you a hat, but she will definitely set you up with a sleek and sexy Prowler, a new item that is part of her Velvet Butterfly line.

I’ve fixed my last post to link her name to her site. That was a stupid oversight of mine, especially when so many people loved that hat. I love it too and it’s one of my most treasured possessions.
