Volite li ovo pretpraznično doba i tulume koji počinju? Ja da! I nego šta, svaki put sam u frci, što obući, kako se srediti? Ovaj je tjedan bio party kojem sam se jako veselila, prigoda praznična, dress code isto. Ok, imam crvenu satensku koktel haljinu, savršeno odgovara. Međutim, čime ju osvježiti, koji detalj koristiti? Mogla bih napraviti torbicu, ali… mislim si… uz koktel haljinu – zašto ne koktel šeširić? Oduvijek sam željela koktel šeširić!

Nešto crvenog baršuna i satena, bijelog i crvenog filca, satenskih traka, srebrnog konca, perlica, krojenja, šivanja i slaganja ukrasa kasnije – i predamnom je bio šeširić!

Tulumu sam se od poziva veselila znajući da će biti odličan, sada sam dodatno nestrpljivo čekala priliku ponosno prošetati svoj prvi koktel šeširić.

Party je bio fantastičan, a što se šeširića tiče, dobro sam se zabavila slušajući komentare. Jedan od meni najdražih je bio: ” djeluje kao da imate bombonijeru na glavi”, rekla mi je jedna gospođa smiješeći se od uha do uha. Može, mislim da se valja ukrasiti upravo takvim stvarčicama: bombonijerama, satenskim mašnama i širokim osmjesima!

Do you like pre-holiday times and parties that are starting? I do! And every time, I am panicking, of course – what to wear, how to assemble the outfit. This week, a party that I had been looking forward took place, a holiday party, and the dress code, well, the same. Ok, I have got a red satin cocktail dress, suits perfectly. However – how to make it look new, which accessories to use? I could make a handbag, but…  thinking… with a cocktail dress – why not a cocktail hat? I always wanted to have a cocktail hat!

Some red velvet and satin, white and red felt, satin ribbons, silver thread, beads, cutting, sewing and arranging decorations later – and a tiny hat was in front of me!

Since the moment I received the invitation, I had been happy thinking about the party, knowing it would be great. Additionally, I had impatiently been waiting for an opportunity to flaunt my first cocktail hat.

The party was mind-blowing, and as far as the hat is concerned, I had a lot of fun listening to the comments. One of my favourites is: “it looks like you have a box of chocolates on your head”, a lady told me smiling widely. Yes, I think that we should decorate ourselves exactly with such things: boxes of chocolates, satin ribbons and wide smiles!
