Significant Article of Clothing, Maya

I went to high school in Greenwich, CT which is probably one of the preppiest places I know of. I never quite fit into this category, and was very proud of this fact, and always tried to wear outfits that kind of shocked people, although here at MICA I don't think anyone would notice. One of the things I wore quite often was this white furry hat that kind of became my trademark hat. I've never really been the quiet type, and my friends would always comment on how they would know when I was coming via my loud footsteps, jangling keys (I collect keychains) or the hat. They'd all steal it and wear it themselves, and I loved it, since it seemed that only guys ever wore hats, and I thought well if they can, why can't I? To me, a hat is kind of like the cherry on top of the sundae, often what competes an outfit, and in what was my case, what completed me. - Maya
