New Balmoral Bonnet on its way!
I finally found a way to get myself a nice balmoral bonnet in Lovat blue!
Turns out it happens to be my birthday in a few weeks (july 5th) and when my fiancé asked what I wanted, I told her a nice cap from Scotland, she decided to get it for me
So, I ordered it today from the dunadd trading company, and it may just arrive early but that just means I can wear it out on my birthday!

You should receive it well before 7/5. Happy birthday, in advance!

Happy early birthday. Of course we expect pictures and a full review of your new bonnet. Are you going to wear it "as is", or are you going to Jock it?

thanks, and thats a very good question that i have debated with myself and have not totally decided yet, I think i'll wear it about first and decide if I like the crisp new look or if i feel i'll go for the the jocked - worn in look

Sounds like a good plan. I know it took my bonnet about two years of pretty constant wearing before I felt like it really laid the way I'd like it too. The nice new, crisp look right out of the box is something that is hard to give up, but the end result is certainly worth it.

Great choice for a bonnet. Chris at Dunadd is great to work with. Can't wait to see a Lovat Blue up close and personal. Got mine in fawn w/ lovat green and fawn dicing. I am still on the fence about "Jocking" my new Mackie. I've "Jocked" both of my older ones, like the new "old" look, but will hold off on the new Dunadd. Maybe next week.
