Kentucky Derby, More Hats

Usually when I am talking about hats, my passion into the making, design and technique are paramount, but really when it all comes down to it, I just love hats. The important thing to remember, no matter how silly or funny we may think something looks, as in someone being crafty with drink cups or fluffy horses. They are respecting 'Wearing of The Hat'. This is what awareness for 'Hats and Millinery' is all about.
I love looking at the amazing creations from Milliners and Hatters all over the world, but really in allot of situations, not everyone can just walk in and purchase an item for one day.
Sometimes when wearing a hat, people will start to compliment you on your head wear, talk about you wearing a hat and what a difference it makes to an outfit. Some people I know, do just wear a hat to work on Friday and they love it and all around them.
When looking at the fun photos, not all will be made by brilliant Milliners or Hatters, but let us smile and embrace that they are standing out for all the right reasons in our eyes.
If we all embrace the love of the craft and all feel it is normal to wear a Hat, we will have allot more Milliners, Hatter, Suppliers in business. It is all a matter of keeping the wheel moving. Next time you step out the door, wear a hat, be it a baseball cap, beanie, beret or Couture, you will feel better in a Hat!
