wrap this around your head

Since I was a little girl, I have always hated hats.  Although, I'd like to think that it's more like hats hated me. Growing up in Montana, my dad would make me bundle up in a hat, scarf, gloves, huge winter coat and boots to go wait for the school bus in the winter.  I imagine I looked like a walking pile of laundry I had so many layers on.  Every morning he'd watch me walk to the bus stop through through the window to make sure I wore my hat, and every morning I'd take off my hat as soon as I thought I was out of eyesight.  (He laughingly informed me last winter that he he could, in fact, see me walk all of the way to the bus stop and knew that I would shove it in my backpack as soon as I could).  Hats looked silly on me, made my hair flat, and never fit my head quite right.  This remains true today. 

Despite the fact that I still refuse to wear a hat unless I'm skiing, I have grown wiser in my years and realize how important it is to keep your ears warm.  Solution found!  This weekend I shopped around SOHO with my best friend and came upon these lovely, soft rabbit fur earmuffs from BCBG.  For all of you fellow hat-haters or stylish ladies, eat your heart out!  They feel like heaven, come in black and white, and won't ruin your gorgeous locks.  ($38-).
