I just came upon this image of Australian singer Lenka Kripac (I’ve never heard of her before, either):

Wow. Gorgeous. Ms. Kripac has re-opened for me the whole question of whether one looks warm and slightly eccentric/fun in a hat with ears or just crazy and stupid:

And then there’s, you know, the actual fur hat deal:

I’m of Russian heritage so I feel like this is an ethnic look for me.
I love my hat with ears and I will continue to wear it when I’m not out and about in my town, and I’m willing to say that the official PeaceBang word on this is No Hats With Ears For Pastors, but I let’s put that to a vote because Ms. Lepac has me all flummoxed.

Doesn’t Lenka sing that “I’m just a little girl caught in the middle” song? If so, I know who she is. If not, I have no idea… [No clue! – PB]
Also, when you are 20 and super-cute, you can get away with a lot more than when you are *mumble* and maybe not quite so aggressively super-cute anymore.
