"I've never followed anyone into a room yet ..."

(Order the same hat as seen in The Lover/L'Amant from www.baronhats.com/thelover.htm)

A pretty, young girl is heading back to Saigon. She is standing on the deck ... defiant, wearing a silk dress, a pair of 'cabaret' high heels, and a man's hat. She is approached by an elegant, Chinese man from Cholon who is also crossing the Mekong that day towards Saigon.

"I like your hat. It's original ... a man's hat on a young girl," he tells her, and continues:

"If you want, I can drive you to Saigon."

Be original this summer, no matter what you wear. Own it and make it yours. Be a bit defiant in silk, high heels, and maybe even a man's hat. And then press your lips up against the window of a stranger's Rolls Royce.
