What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[hatsRme]

The hat looks great as well as the boots Bowen! Also good to see Willow ... she just keeps growing up as they do. Tell her that Great Uncle Bob says "hey".

I've been meaning to tell you that I *finally* have my own "Willow" in the works. My youngest daughter is expecting a girl in mid-August. I hear that this Grandpa gig is pretty sweet!

Best job on earth, Bob, and you, sir, have all the qualifications of a great one.
Heck, as has been said, if I knew how totally GREAT grandkids were, we might have skipped kids altogether!

I started here with none, currently have seven. WooHA!
Hi to Willow and @AbbaDatDeHat !!!

Hat: My final Fawcett felt.

Thanks Chas! You wear them well (the kids and the hat).

Such a cute photo, Charlie. Who'd have thought there's something more important than hats

A two hat day.

I popped out to pick up Stefan's box of hats in my recent Stetson Strat. Still keeping an eye out for a Stratoliner type pin for this one.

Later, I went out for groceries in this newly arrived out of Stefan's package Tirard Supra.

I'd wanted a Tirard for a while. The Steur added ribbon drew my attention to this one.

Stefan explains it all in the link below. I agree with him wholeheartedly re the felt. There's a velvet/chamois like feel to it.

Looks great in Denmark as well, Steve. Both hats are well matched with the jackets.

I usually wear the blue one with the wine ribbon, but today I decided on a horse of a different color.

 

[Daniele Tanto]

Windy day and some sunshine.

I go back to wearing a hat for a walk in the northern districts of Verona

The hat is a Flechet, made in France, arrived in perfect condition, but not finished

The ribbon was completely out of position and the bow had to be finished. Fleur, Penumbra Hats - Netherlands, thought of giving a touch of class to the magnificent heather felt

I take this opportunity to wish you all a Happy Easter

What an unusual colour Steve, I love it! You have seen my Strat-a-like that former lounger Esther Weis made for me. Rather than looking for the Strat-pin, and seeing as it's not a Stetson, I will often put an MG octagon pin in. I made it from a lapel pin that I bought from the MG car club. The MG types love it, but converting them to hat wearing is an uphill task.

Thanks, Robert. An MG pin would definitely do it for me, too

My Dobbs Homburg in navy with purple trimmings got the call up.
Grateful to Brent for sending this my way.

Stefan, as always one more beautiful than the other. But for me, this time the Lontra Visone tops them.
