Hi, all! I don’t usually post here because my most recent purchase is usually just (lots of) scarves, but thought I would share since the purchases are less typical for me:

Cardamusc perfume. We tried it in Naples on vacation, and my husband loved it, so I bought it for him as a thank you for planning the trip while I was very busy at work. They gave me a ton of samples — I was idly marveling at the number of samples until I saw the price on the register; most expensive 20ml of perfume I have ever bought! At least there are probably another 20ml in samples, so I guess there is some pay off :smile:

A hat pin — pretty Victorian of me, but I do actually have a use case — I love hats, but when I am in a convertible (we live in California...), they need to be secured lest they blow away. Hence the hat pin. Looks perfect for my needs.

Thank you for letting me share!

Congratulations on your hat pin, love it and as you say sometimes a necessity.

Ok, I’ve gotta ask - how do you use a hat pin to secure the hat when you’re in a convertible? I always get weird looks when I do the scarf-on-the-head thing, but I’m not a fan of resorting to baseball caps.

(Futilely fights the urge to ask, “you don’t pin it to your head, do you?? :giggle:)

Right into the skull :lol:
Hi BBC! Not the purchaser but I can answer your question. :flowers: Insert the pin from outside the hat, slip it under a chunk of hair close to the scalp, the push out it back through the hat. It’s balance of length of pin to the size of the hat and the amount of hair.
