Hats On!!

Hats are wonderful things, I love them in summer and winter and would love to wear one all of the time.

I always wear a hat to church.

I wished it was still commonplace for people to wear hats all the time.

However the choice now is very limited, there are a very limited amount of styles. All formal hats and facinators are very showy ( I should know I have worn some outrageous ones).

I have a stock rotation of 3 winter baker boy hats with some good old wolly ones for out on walks.

In the summer I have trilby hats, fishing hats and straw hats.

However following a trip to a recent antiques market I discovered a liking for 40's and 50's styles, especially the small half bonnets and caplets.

So for my next hats I have decided to look back. I am off to a wedding in the spring and so looked to eBay.

I had forgotten how addictive it is, just the urge to go a little bit higher and another little bit and before you know it the budget has gone....

I missed out on a few nice one's but am now the proud owner of a vintage green hat!

I just need to add the dress, bag, shoes and gloves!!
