Officially this is the last Winter post , Spring is literally just round the corner on Friday in fact , so it really was time to revisit my all time favourite Winter hat. I had been biding my time searching for the perfect coat or jacket to accompany this beauty but this was not the year for this to happen. I know it will , as it often does when you least expect it and from an unlikely source.
Time to draw on old favourites , this little tartan jacket has made several appearances previously and my long black leather skirt – both sourced from a local recycled clothing store.Elbow length black leather gloves that I discovered at a charity shop in Adelaide at Easter make the perfect finishing touch.
Red suede ankle boots by Ara , another old favourite, complete today’s outfit.
I just had to include a close-up of the details on my hat , love the braiding detail . The hat is made by
a Tasmanian milliner , Susan McArthur . I am a great admirer of her millinery and am now the proud owner of three of her glorious creations.

I can see why this is your favorite hat, Jill.! And the leather skirt is simply divine. Thanks so much for linking up, you look fabulous. XO-Pattihttp://notdeadyetstyle.com
Thank you Patti , I know this little hat will stay with me forever . Always my pleasure to join in with Visible Monday.

Many thanks Nancy , a tartan is always a Winter classic.
The tartan is so beautiful, and really pops against the black. This is definitely one of my favourite outfits, fun and cool.
Tiina, that is really special, thank you so much.

Thank you Susan , I have had the boots for a while but love them and they are so comfortable.

Thank you so much Penny , I think we both share the joy of finding something a little different from the mainstream.
The hat is really unique! It is a piece of art . Susan McArthur is very talented and you matched the hat beautifully…
So true Dan , Susan is very talented and the fact that she is an artist shows through in her hats.
