    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    In honor of Dr. Sueus' birthday, it's dress up as such at a school where I teach. This is the upper portion of my "Fox in Socks" outfit. However, what would an actual hat of this sort be called?

    At one of the schools where I teach, today is Fashion Friday. So I decided to dress to the nines. The Fedora is a 1941 Borsalino, the suit is a Magnoli custom 1930's era, italian wingtip short boots, gold and ruby tie pin, and even Boker pocket knife from the mid forties.
