slipjig3It's 12 o'clock, and the hats have come out to play. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rafaela (blogging as star_barnkitty is wearing her Guinness cap, and mllelaurel and wired_lizard have been passing the Hat That Looks Good on Everyone between each other, in between discussions of the +1 Hat of Dominance.
felisdemens suggested that I write about the Hat That Looks Good on Everyone, in fact. There's really not much to it: Anna spied it at the local Salvation Army for all of four bucks, and insisted that I buy it. It's a weather-beaten old brown fedora, with a bit of a suede-like texture to it, battered, missing the cording on the brim, lining coming free inside. Since procuring it, it has been tried on by upwards of 100 people, and it has looks good on every. Last. Person. No exceptions. It's amazing: men, women, children, regardless of coloring, size or facial appearance, the thing suits them. Yesterday, theloriest begged me (again) to let her have it; today, I think mllelaurel is quietly threatening to walk off with it. (Don't blame her: it looks really good on her.)
At some point, it's likely to fall apart, and I will be deeply saddened. There's magic in this thing. That's not easy to find.
