It started when I got self-conscious about my thinning mop, but now it’s a ‘thing’ and I like it. Generally I wear a striped Breton (gnome-y) beanie, but I have a collection of cowboy hats I’ve picked up in Texas on road trips over the years that I’ll wear to the beach. I hate suncream so it’s good to keep the face in the shade. I bought my godchildren baby-sized striped beanies so we can match.

It started with regular hats that others passed on - bucket hats, baseball caps from family, then I started buying hats - like sunhats, wider brim wool types, even a fedora inspired one, and when I picked up knitting, I made more hats...
Besides the standard types, people have gifted a fez, a traditional chullo and a beautifully embroidered Arequipa hat. I bought a hat here and there too, so it's getting to be a sizeable collection. But there are so many hats I still want to try! I want to get the Blockbuster beanie, a mariner's or sailor's hat, a OOO baseball cap from hoho coco, the Madhalla, that massive floppy sunhat (but I need more wardrobe or wallspace), the Assam hat (rice hat?), a cowboy hat, and so much more. It's my weird thing, but I love it, and I wear them all :))

I don’t wear baseball hats. I don’t wear beanies. I don’t wear sun hats. But when stylist Emily Dawn Long designed her knit “Wanda” bucket hat, I was enchanted. Mine is white and bright blue. It’s soft and foldable so I can stuff it into my purse or big pockets. When I wear my mask and hat, I feel like I’m hidden and protected from the world. I also feel a little like Captain Crunch when I wear it. Eric sometimes steals it but he looks really handsome so it’s ok.

I love hats, been a faithful hat wearer since I was 4. My hairline is flawless but even if it starts slipping, my hats will hold me down. I advise everyone to get Atleast one good hat. Love it, care for it, become one with the hat.

Maybe it’s because one time I was lucky enough to live in a house with a sauna, or as a rowdy teenager I spent after-hours on weekends at London’s gay bathhouses, but, truly, still, at least once a week I need to decompress in a spa. When I lived in the Bay Area, I’d go to the Kabuki or the Russian Banya, and sit in silence and sweat. In L.A. I’ll nip down to Koreatown. Even the seedy spas are fab. I just want to exfoliate. Pls send spa tips 🙏🏼

I’ll wear them until they are just raggedy scraps of leather hanging off my feet. I usually go for a sturdy boot situation—right now it’s the R.M Williams Craftsman boot—I’ll wear them to traipse through a bog one day and to a wedding the next.

Cleanliness is godliness ! ESP when that cleanliness is given to you by 20,000 year old water from deep inside our earth. I have a whole map saved on my phone of secret and not-so-secret hot springs all over the USA and Europe. Happiest when dunked in hot water (*see spas, above)
