Smile Loved the Queen's Hats...

When I visited England in 2004 and saw the news pictures about The Queen's latest visit to the US, I just LOOOOOVVVVEDDDD her hats. In 2004, Kensington Palace had a display of her hats from the 1970-1980... It was extraordinary!

The Washington Post has some pictures:

Lovely Hats

One of those hats probably costs more than I spend on clothes yearly.

Those hats are lovely but very expensive. Still, one can dream right?

I think her taste in hats has improved over the years! Is that possible? You go, EII.

Oh, I know those hats cost a pretty hefty amount. For the "average" hats from Church Lady they are like $200+. I'm sure hers are in the thousands!

I love hats! I did a little hat modeling when I was in school, and somehow, it stuck. Her Majesty does wear them well, as did Diana & Sarah. They just add that finishing touch to a fine outfit!



BTW, the last few I've bought were from the UK, and the average cost was probably around $40 + s/h. Having a good friend in England helps!
