Shhhh….I’ve got a fashionable secret and it’s an ORDER from my plastic surgeon.
Do you remember when I had all of those pesky age sun spots removed by my favorite Boca plastic surgeon Dr. Pozner? He was so sweet, surprising me with a laser removal when I had actually come to interview him and learn about the Pellevé treatments that they provide. Of course, after my treatment he laid down the law, no more sun on my face. I was told to use sunblock even when walking from the house to the car, and to ALWAYS wear a hat! You don’t have to tell me twice – I LOVE HATS!
As a frequent traveler I love the packability of this hat. You can tuck it into your suitcase or pocketbook and it bounces back into shape. It’s also very easy to change the brim from up, to down, to one side up the other down, etc.
I’m not keeping this secret to myself, because summer is coming and it’s not only the Southern States that have the sun beating down.
This cute Scala Collezione Ribbon Crusher Hat (AKA Tres Jolie) by Dorfman Pacific offers a generous 4″ brim that doesn’t overpower my petite 5’1″ frame, and it is rated UPF50+ blockin out 97.5% of the sun’w dangerous UV rays. Other hats in this collection boast brims as wide as 7″ – perfect for my taller more stately friends. The Ribbon Crusher is available in black, white, tan, fuschia, lime and more.
Summer is just around the corner. I’ve seen these sold at my local Stein Mart as well as Belk, Amazon.com and more. They’re normally priced at about $30, but if you order online the hat will be available from 5/10/12 through 6/30/12 for a 20% deduction which means $24 for Champagne Living’s readers at Hartford York.

I am a sunscreen nazi! My moisturizer and makeup have sunscreen inside and I use a face sunscreen as well. Prevention right? 🙂
Stefanie says
Cute hat … even better that it’s easy to pack!
Zipporah says
Thanks Stefanie, I love that it’s rollable for travel.
Zipporah says
Absolutely Marcie. I wish that I had known enough to wear sunscreen when I was younger. I used to love having a tan, not realizing how much it ruins your skin.
Zipporah says
Totally fun to wear too Liz.
Zipporah says
You should Megan. They’re such a fun accessory.
Zipporah says
Jenn, you’d look BEAUTIFUL in hats. Go to the store and try some on….i love doing that with a girlfriend (although most of the time is spent laughing at each other).
Zipporah says
I don’t think enough people wear hats anymore. It’s too bad, because they’re such a fun accessory.
Zipporah says
Thank you Louise. I could TOTALLY see you in a BIG hat with a huge brim, you’d look so elegant.
Zipporah says
Aren’t they great Virginia?
Courtney says
Love the hat! I wish I could pull a hat off.. It just doesn’t look right no matter what one I try on.
