A Flapper's~ 1920's Inspired Clara Bow Cherry Hat and Blouse





When I saw Clara Bow's movie~ "IT"(girl) for the first time, I couldn't get over the hat she was wearing~ it was an all black hat with cute little cherrys dangling down off the side. So classic. I got a little inspiration from that look to create this little cherry hat. Simple and chic. Plus I just love this Rene' Rene' Cherry Top I bought a couple of weeks ago~

A Flapper's~ (at home) Millinery Design Studio







Here are some pictures taken of me working on hats at home, where a lot of the magic happens. I know it doesn't look like much, and it really isn't, but I don't need a whole lot of space for when I'm designing hats. My apartment is small, and I share the space with My Man, who's a Vintage Motorized Bicycle Builder/
Collector, so his stuff takes up a lot of floor and wall space.  But like with all my clothes, it was easy to tell when we moved in, who was getting the closet place (which is also kind of small).  Anyway enjoy!
