Saks is pushing them hard, free shipping and returns, which is always a plus ’cause who wants to pay for shipping these days, am I right? And ShopStyle? Over 430 Valentino *men’s* hats? What’s up with that? Are men suddenly really into designer hats or something? I mean, a nice baseball cap is cool, but a *Valentino* hat… that’s a statement. A very *expensive* statement. Plus cash back! I mean… I’m kind of sold.
Then there’s the whole “Valentino Garavani” thing. Is that like, the full name? I never know with these fancy brands. It’s kinda like when people call Starbucks “Starbucks Coffee Company.” Like, we *know*, Karen. We just want our latte. Anyway, Garavani probably sounds fancier, more Italian, which is probably the point, I guess.
And Mytheresa? Sheesh, fast delivery *worldwide*? They’re not messing around. Talk about commitment to fashion. I feel like I should be wearing a Valentino hat just to read this article. Or maybe, I dunno, maybe a really good knock-off. No one would know the difference, right? *wink*
The Haute Couture collection… okay, now we’re talking. “Playful adornment, floral-jacquard bucket hats…” Ugh, okay, I’m picturing something ridiculously chic that I could never pull off. But the “Toile Iconographe monogram across cashmere” part? That sounds deliciously comfy. Like, wear-it-to-the-grocery-store comfy. But also, you know, show-off-your-wealth comfy. A dichotomy, as they say.
