I totally wear hats

When I saw the [ad for hats at Target] this autumn I had to giggle. I thought it seemed like me because "I totally wear hats." and while I more frequently wear the same three (which oddly I did not photograph), I am amassing quite a collection.

The straw hat with the bow I bought on a trip to the beach. I got hit on wearing that fedora and waiting for my coffee at Starbucks. The black and white reminded me a bit of Audrey Hepburn's hat in the racing scene of My Fair Lady. The other three were gifts.

The blue one below was a gift also, but the black one belonged to my cousin's mom.




This is my great uncle's top hat. He had a much smaller head than me. :)

Don't know if you've noticed, but most of my hats are hanging from (or sitting on) candle holders. Got all those candleholders out of my way and works great too!



Be sure to visit My Romantic Home for Show and Tell Friday to see what treasures everyone is showing off.

I LOVE hats. And you have so many cute ones! My head is way too big for many that I find, though. :P

Isn't it a shame that more people don't wear hats. Your collection is terrific!

Your collection is lovely! I have a thing for hats too but I don't any quite this pretty. My son loves hats also. The other day he was wearing his great grandfather's hat, he looked so cute!
