I love this hat. Very well made and I ordered it Saturday and it is here Monday afternoon. I opened it right up and put it on and fell in love. It is hard to find a nice feminine hate. Ironically it is here for St. Patrick's Day which I didn't even think of until I saw a commercial and saw it is only a few days away...Anyway- Definitely a hat you can wear year round and the brim of it is not short...it is long and will cover my whole face from the sun. I would recommending buying this hat to add to your collection and just to have one.
