![]() How The Red Hat Society Started
While shopping in a thrift store in Tucson, Sue Ellen Cooper bought a bright red fedora because it was very cheap and quite dashing. Later when Sue Ellen read the poem "Warning" by Jenny Joseph, which depicts an older woman in purple clothing with a red hat, she knew that that poem and red hat would be the perfect birthday gift for her dear friend, Linda Murphy. Linda got so much enjoyment out of the hat and poem that Sue Ellen gave the same gift to another friend, then another etc.... One day it occurred to these friends that they were becoming sort of a "Red Hat Society" and that perhaps they should go out to tea.

I shall sit down on the pavement when I'm tired
And gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells
And run my stick along the public railings
And make up for the sobriety of my youth.
I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
And pick the flowers in other people's gardens
And learn to spit.
You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat
And eat three pounds of sausages at a go
Or only bread and pickle for a week
And hoard pens and pencils and beermats and things in boxes.
But now we must have clothes that keep us dry
And pay our rent and not swear in the street
And set a good example for the children.
We must have friends to dinner and read the papers.
But maybe I ought to practice a little now?
So people who know me are not too shocked and surprised
When suddenly I am old, and start to wear purple.
