Hat
I spent a lot of time deliberating over the color and selected the Ivory leaves beret. Goes with anything (including the black alpaca ruana cape I purchased) Keeps my head warm in the cold weather. Useful for the bad hair days as well. I worried that it might not fit as I usually have trouble with size. My head measures 24" circumference at above eyebrows. I can wear pulled over forehead or like a Parisian tilted to one side without an issue. It is light in weight and has a very pretty pattern.

Authenitc from Cusco
I just got back from Cusco, Peru. I bought beautiful pillow covers but wanted a few more authentic handwoven items. I KNOW this purse is authentic, and it is well made. I visited weaving cooperatives and recognize the natural colors and designs. It has a sturdy lining and a nice inside pocket with zipper. I use it for my everyday purse, I like the size. I don't like a big purse. It is important to me that the weavers of the Peruvian Andes get support to continue weaving. Tourists have not returned to this area and these traditions will be lost. Plus it is a beautiful purse with rich colors.
