Raspberry Beret by prttblues

Raspberry Beret

76 / 365
I received a box for my birthday (it arrived yesterday, but my birthday was on the 6th). You can probably guess who it came from. Inside the box were a total of 22 items. 16 of those items were chocolate. I might take a picture of them displayed later, but I might not, as you have already seen the 13 pounds of chocolate that came for Valentine's Day.

This beret was at the top of the box. (It isn't the main present, though. I'm saving that one for last!). This raspberry beret is the exact style of beret that Ashley Jensen wore when she played the character of Maggie Jacobs in a now out of production series known as "Extras". It's a funny show and it's too bad that it didn't last longer!

I absolutely love this beret and because I had to wear it so you would see it how it's supposed to be worn, you get another selfie from me. I was going to post another accidental overexposure (I seem to get at least one of those whenever I try to take a photo of myself), but chose not to. I also thought about just doing the top of my head that showed only the beret and some of my hair, but again I chose not to.

So ... here is me, wearing my raspberry beret. I tried to find the song on YouTube but apparently you can't get it. Something to do with Prince blocking it or something.

Bev! What a gorgeous shot - love the beret it looks so glam and cool - I was singing it even before the pic came up!
You should make this your profile pic, it's lovely to see your eyes :)
And very happy birthday last week! I would have sung if I'd known so just as well I didn't =)
