it'sday2of HATWEEK!!!!!!

today is the second day of the first official Hat Week!
since it took me foooooorever to figure out to what to wear this morning i just kinda threw something together... and actually look kind of cute...   but as i don't have an utter abundance of cute casual winter hats, i am wearing my simple (but adorable) black cloche with the bow on the side.  


the student activities board brought a sketch artist to the student union building so jb and i got our "sexy side"s sketched :)
since we were both in skirts we weren't sure how he was going to get "sexy" out of the picture (he sketches mainly from the back...) but we turned out pretty awesome!

 
here are some more random, but interesting hat pictures i ran across...

                   guys and hats are usually a good combination...

case in point- frank sinatra

(note/disclaimer: a baseball cap is not a hat. nor is anything that is usually referred to as a cap) 

The whole shadow of Man is only as big as his hat.

while perusing the www i found several interesting hat-related articles so i'll share those along with the day's pictures!!



todays pictures were taken in the library,
 one of our favorite places ;)
very little compares to the
amazingness
of being surrounded
by a multitude of
history
fantasy
facts
big words
pictures
stories
information
imagination...

we had an... interesting time trying to get a picture of our hats together like this... we were lying on a table, but only partially... most of me was hanging off :)  at least these turned out cute.

while we were in the library looking for books that matched our outfits, jb ran accross this interesting art book that had a patinint thing attached to it.  someone had signed it and it looks like it says JuJu... well she had every reason to assume i had signed it (i would do something like that...) but i hadn't.  since there were 2 blanks she signed her name, we pretended the other was mine, then fingerprinted it for further notariaty :)
