Hats Out of the Bag

Ladies, the hat is finally out of the bag. Many of you have asked me over the last few years where I get my brightly colored, wide brimmed hats, and more importantly, where you might get your hands on one.

Folly 101 on upper Exchange Street here in Portland is a delightful little store full of all kinds of colorful finds. Including, I am happy to report, my beloved hat.

Made by Scala, the Lanikai sun hat is perfect for blocking out those unwanted UV rays of summer sunshine with just the right amount of flair. Available in a broad range of colors from bright yellow to hot pink to navy blue, the 100% cotton canvas cap breathes well, packs perfectly, and is guaranteed to turn heads on a city side walk or a long stretch of sandy beach.

It's one size fits all with an adjustable drawstring inside, and retails for $21. For that price, by all means, treat yourself to two.

For more information, please stop by Folly 101 at 101 Exchange Street in Portland, or give them a ring  at (207) 773-5227.
