If you're interested in a Jane Birkin-style basket, you can get one here. It's pricey, yes, but what a great story.

(I have been singing the praises of coconut oil as hair conditioner for long hair since watching this video by Loepsie, and I just love it. I can say without feeling as though I am bragging -- because I beat myself up in so many other ways! -- that my hair looks great.)

May: Oh, great! I'm glad I could help, or even just give you something new to think about.
even eve: Thank you! That sidewalk kitty was so sweet.
nice-etc.com / caitlin: Yeah! Thanks! Can't wait to snap your face! Haha.
tinypaperheart: Thanks!
Wild and Precious: Oh, thanks! I'm glad you like it.
Hannah: I have some fantastic pictures of Oreo. She's not the most lively cat so it's pretty funny to catch her in a crazed pose. The second cat is Switchblade, who has anger issues. It's a really fun camera. I love when I remember that I have it in my purse.
SwanDiamondRose: Oh, please do! I love your digital pictures.
Diana: Oh, she wasn't stressed!! She ignores the camera. That picture was taken while she was hunting! Geoff was holding up her "cat charmer" just outside the frame and she was trying to catch it. We like to make her get some exercise since she is pretty lazy, and she happens to go crazy when she's working out her animal insticts, ha. Thank you!
Oh hooray, you got one! It's so beautiful! Haha fake tans and acrylic nails, I'd take a basket purse over that in a second!

ReplyDeleteperfect floppy hat & basket (& hair too)
ReplyDeletehave a great weekend!
I've been wanting to tell you for so long that I'm absolutely in love with your hair! Perfect.
ReplyDeleteGeez, you are so cool with your basket purse. I have a feeling this is going to become a new trend...
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of using coconut oil before. I must try that out.....
The basket is beautiful. I have one just like it. In Madeira they actually call it "dutch basket", I don't know why.
ReplyDeleteSo well-made! Worth the wait!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty - the basket, the hat, the hair...and I think I love that trench coat too!
ReplyDeleteOh I love the basket so much! I used to always use a basket for my darkroom stuff in Ireland. It felt so natural at the time. I can't imagine doing that in Toronto for some reason. But I should...
ReplyDeleteThat basket is pretty lovely. It looks like it needs a baguette or two projecting out.
ReplyDeleteInteresting, I've always associated baskets with picnics.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy there is someone else out there who likes floppy hats also, it gives me the courage to wear mine.
ooh, fabulous hat! where did you find it?
ReplyDeletei'm going to have to look for coconut oil! my hair is pretty thick and i always wear it back because it's so "big." thanks for the tip! :)
