Have you read Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging, by Louise Rennison? If not, you should. If so, good on you! The narrator, Georgia goes to a school that requires berets as part of the uniform. All the girls hate the berets, so they try to think of ways to get around wearing them. Quote:

We did have another campaign last year, which was If You Want Us to Wear Our Berets, Let's Really Wear Our Berets.

This involved the whole of our class pulling their berets right down over their heads with just their ears showing. It was very stunning, seeing one hundred girls at the bus stop with just their ears showing. We stopped eventually (even though it really infuriated Slim and Hawkeye) because it was terribly hot and you couldn't see where you were going and it played havoc with your hair.


So that's supposed to be a beret on the girl's face. Heh.
