First World Problems

It’s a winter of newsboy caps to die for, most of which don’t fit my big skull. Liz at work says if I wore men’s caps like she does . . . But, no, this isn’t a matter of feminism. It’s a matter of finding more hats by Lillie & Cohoe, whose deconstructionista Vancouver-made M/Ls fit me to an unexpected T. I’ve googled. I’ve trawled anorectic Yorkville shops. I've gotten my mitts on only three. There’s one place left. The Princess Margaret Hospital’s Wig Salon & Accessories Boutique. Problem is, would it be worse karma to go shopping there? Or, to avoid it?
