I haven't for a while now, but I used to collect hats. I hung them on nails on my bedroom wall, as part of the decor at one point.

I think it takes a certain devil-may-care attitude to really carry off a fashion hat, as some people seem to consider them a bit eccentric. If it makes you feel self-conscious, it won't work.

I like the fedora, for those who can pull it off. Looks pretty hip.

Not a fan of cowboy hats, though.

Hope you weren't talking about the Queen of England stupid hats. Diana's were OK though.
Those Royals def. have weird taste in hats. Most of them are ugly. Not at all flattering.

There are women's cowboy hats that are felt, or some similar material, not straw. Those look nice; they can have a certain elegance.

A woman at my church wears a hat every Sunday. She has many beautiful ones. I always enjoy seeing them on her.

Princess Kate and Megan Markle wear some great looking hats.

I never understood people who don’t live in Texas wearing cowboy hats. Looks dumb in my estimation.

People in Texas don’t all own horses or wear cowboy hats either. Maybe people who go country dancing do.

Sheryl Crow looks pretty good in one.

Myself, I like a cloche hat. I think they’re most flattering to my face.

Those are really nice hats. I wish I had the face to wear one. Bet you look good in it.

My blonde girlfriends wear them to the beach to protect their color.

I look stupid in hats. I've tried and tried and would love to wear one but can't pull it off.

I used to wear hats when I was younger and went out to more events, not so much now. Usually smaller hats, sometimes with a net veil.
Living in Memphis for so long I have seen some HATS when the city would host the COGIC conventions every year, those are some hat wearing women.

I grew up in Memphis, and that was always the BEST time of year. The hats were amazing!

I wear hats in the winter when I'm going to be outside for a longer period of time.

Even a straw hat in the summer makes my head hot. No thanks.
