Bonjour! Comment allez-vous? (Hello! How are you)Well, that's the extent of my memories from Year 7 French class at Hamilton High School.
Pensez-vous de mon nouveau béret? (Do you like my new beret?)
I cheated with this one and used an online translator.
Anyhow, enough of dreaming about living in France, and speaking fluent French. I just did a little swap with Sandrine from Histoire de Soie, and I received this absolutely beautiful cherry red hand felted beret. I've already taken it on a little test run while I was out and about today.
... and here's a nice blurry shot of me wearing the beret (artwork by Tinniegirl in the background). I need to get a robot arm that doesn't shake for the self portraits.Sandrine makes absolutely wonderful hats, berets, and headpieces which you can find in her Etsy shop, or if you check out her blog, you'll find all of the information that you need on upcoming markets.
Thanks so much Sandrine - this was a really fun swap!

Yum. How do you say a straight out, ooh the red, oooh the detailing, ooooh time for me to become a beret-wearer sort of 'yum' in French?
Croissant! Fromage!
It's perfect.
Tres jolie Cam, The red suit you perfectly and I am releived that the size is good...hope it will be your cold "day out" companion now;)
Looks fabulous. Love all these fun self portraits you are sharing these days too.
hey there, congrats (from another hamilton high school french pupil) for both (a) making a cool hat and (b) learning and retaining enough french from the deep south west to reference it! excellent!
Looks really good on you :D
7 years of French and all I remember is how to count to 10, the day of the weeks and how to say my name. how I hated French in school....
J'aime votre beret nouveau! C'est tres rouge et jolie. (Three French lessons per week during three years in the late 1960's!)
beautiful Cam! red is definitely your colour!
great work Sandrine.
You look great Cam (even blurry!). The beret really suits you. Sandrine's creations are so beautiful.
Looks fantastic - suits you to a tea. Lucky you, what a great swap!

Very nice! The only towo phrases I remember are Je ne cset pas and Je t'aime I know my spelling is off, but that's supposed to be I do not know and I love you Or something like that! Ooooo my French teacher was badddd.
LOL I slept in French Class lol
LOVE it!
That really suits you! Very cute!
Oh my lord, could you look any more gorgeous!???
I doubt it!
Tres bien, Cam. That has exhausted my French and I use it on Sandrine's blog far too frequently! Beautiful beret and jaunty attitude of wearer. Sandrine is a clever, clever, chicken. Lisa.
Tres magnifique! Red looks good you. Great beret, Sandrine!
the beret is so gorgeous Cam and it REALLY suits you, you look very French too!
are we talking, Hamilton Victoria?
Mr Cinti went there, was a big trouble maker and was asked to leave...he he!
OOh, very stylish! The colour looks great on you!
Cute as a button....you and beret!
Its divine. That's definitely your colour (apart from pink & orange, that is!). Tres chic!
This is gorgeous! Red is such a stunning colour. Plus I have read some research that says red clothing and lipstik on a woman drives men wild.
tres belle! Formidable!
