Accessories: Net Assets

Girls, now you CAN hide those lyin' eyes --


Put Kenley Collins out of your mind. There is something kind of creepy and demure at once about wearing a veil, and they look good sitting around your bedroom.




Left to right from top:


1. Sparkle veil pill box hat $45.00
2. Vintage Jean Patou question mark hat $695.00 (but how friggin' awesome)
3. "Rome Fascinator" $38.00
4. "Sophie" vintage bow head piece $129.00

The rectangular net panel that just goes across the eyes (worn by that pink panther in the first top left image) is called a Venetian veil; (here's one). Kanye West can trade in his Venetian shades for this to usher in his new demure phase.

Hot Topic has some excellent and cheap options. I'm probably going to order the mini veil top hat one.
