Okay, so I've been wearing berets for YEARS, but finding a good one online? Nearly impossible... until now!
This AIYUE beret is seriously the first online purchase that actually lives up to my expectations. Unlike other berets that make you look like you're wearing a giant pancake on your head (we've all been there), this one sits perfectly. The diameter is just right - not too big, not too small.
The wool material feels amazing - thick and substantial without being scratchy. It's got that perfect beret 'drape' that makes you feel instantly more artistic and Parisian. I've already gotten so many compliments!
Only downside? Now I'm tempted to buy one in every color... My wallet might not forgive me for this discovery!
PS - For reference, I got the 10.6in size and it fits my average-sized head perfectly. Hand wash only though - learned that lesson the hard way with previous berets!
