I made IT!!! This is the very last day of the A to Z Challenge. I must admit there were times when I thought I could not post...Q and U were hard. Oh and X that was a killer! I want to thank all new followers that have joined up. I hope you come back often. Thank you all!!!
Today...I ask a question about hats. I'm sure most of you have seen part or all (like me) of the royal wedding. and yada yada yada Kate was beautiful yada yada yada so was William. .......though....WHAT WAS UP WITH THOSE HATS!.......people, some of those hats were hideous. That being said....I LOVED THEM!!!!! why don't we have that tradition here?
I think it would be so fun to don a crazy, wacky, zany hat and parade around as if its the most gorgeous thing in the world! So...Saturday's question is... which one of these hats would you have chosen to wear if you had been invited to the royal wedding? Remember hats were a must.
A butterfly hat?

A subtle demure hat that says I'M HERE I'M HERE I'M HERE!!!!
A....oh geeze I just don't know what to say about this one. It is a pretty color?Maybe if the whole front part was smaller? OR GONE!
Huge flowered turban...no worries about a hair style!
Another huge flower on side of pink flower pot.

Perfect for Florida weddings hat
I would wear any one of these. They look like alot of fun!
Well that's it for now. I had a blast and this past month was certainly a challenge... and now I'm going to take a little rest. See you all Monday! Have a great weekend! Blessings, Joanne
You did great with the challenge! I never would have thought of zany! I would wear the UFO hat, because no one could see my face. The hat may be goofy, but no one would know who was wearing it! Gosh, you and I even have some of the same pictures!! How cool is that? Great minds think alike!!
ReplyDeleteUFO HAT totally!
ReplyDeleteI wish we wore more hats! Out of those hats, I would choose the butterfly. Honestly, I've seen a lot more attractive hats than those! On second thought, maybe I would go for the flamingo!
ReplyDeleteYay, congrats on finishing the A-Z challenge.
ReplyDeleteI agree, I would love to have this hat tradition here.
I think Princess Beatrice definitely made a statement with her hideous hat.
loved this i had another blogger friend that posted about hats to there are some interesting ones out there. love the last one hey no judging i live FL and that hat is perfect
ReplyDeleteI think I would go hatless. LOL They are none of them pretty. There were really some huge hats in the wedding yesterday.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on completing the A-Z Challange!! :) I am glad I found you through this challenge and I am looking forward to reading many more great posts in the future.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I actually love that butterfly hat but what was she thinking with that hat yesterday? All I could think of was deer horns.... YiKes!
What a great timely post, I love those crazy hats!
I am so proud of you for taking and completing the A-Z Challenge. I think every single post was great! A to Z you rock! A to Z you rocked the alphabet!
ReplyDeleteJust as your UFO hat demonstrated, hats can become an UnFortunate Obsession. Rational thought flies out the window if one just must make a statement! On the other hand, hats can bring great class and style to the well dressed woman.
Great post! I love hats! The butterfly hat, and the UFO hat are my favorites. Glad I found you through A to Z!
ReplyDeleteI wish more people wore hats, both men and women. It's a struggle to get my BW to wear a hat; I'm successful 20-30% of the time. Your blog is fun to read, I loved the hats, even the whimsical ones.
ReplyDeleteI think Lady Gaga inspired the Royal Wedding attire.... =)
ReplyDeleteI swear the bow one is on backwards .. lol
ReplyDeleteReally my dear you find the BEST pictures :)
Those were amaaaazing hats. I wish I could afford one, but I know they cost major bucks/pounds/Euros. I loved them all, no matter how ridiculous. congratulations on surviving the A-Z. See you around the bend.
ReplyDelete@ Ginny~Yeah the grey one would be good, though no one could occupy three seats on all sides of of the hat it's so wide!
ReplyDelete@ Ma~ Yes that seems to be the most "normal"
@ Darlene~ Interesting choice. It is really light an airy looking
@ Lena~ you are right about tha! I mean what was she thinking? and what was the designer thinking?
@ Becca~ LOL the floriday one would be the talk of the wedding. I would so totally wear it!!!
@ Beth~Oh Oh no hat for you? you're a rebel!! LOL
@ Snakesmom~ Deer horns!!!LOL that is a perfect description!!!
@ Retired English Teacher~ you're so right. I love hats I wish "normal" looking ones would came back in style
@ Tyrean Martinson~ great choices and welcome to my little blog
@ anthony stemke~even though some of the hats were horrible I still liked looking at them
@ Larissa~ I think you might be right about that one!
@ Alexis AKA MOM~Oh my gosh I think it is backwards!!! who in the world looks at that in the mirror and says "yep...Perfect!!"
@ Susan Kane~ I think I might look into how much those hats cost. Thanks.
Zaney is a good word. God bless you as you relax. Geoff.
ReplyDeleteFun post! Wouldn't it be great if hats were worn at weddings here!
ReplyDeleteHats were a must? Wow. I'd have to go with the most humble looking one - the blue one. I like the color.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on finishing the A-Z Challenge! Woohoo! I'm so glad we've connected through it and I look forward to more of your fun posts.
