My beautiful new hat arrived and has been cold weather tested here in Maine. It has surpassed all of my hopes! Not only is it gorgeous - easily the best looking hat I've ever worn - but it keeps my head and ears toasty warm and stays put even on a windy day. I opted for the satin lining because of my wavy/curly hair and it keeps my hair from frizzing, unlike other hats I have tried. In short, I love this hat and am contemplating my next purchase. Thank you for this beautifully designed and executed hat!
