Thanks in part to a little wedding between the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, hats are hot right now. Felt hats are a little throwback to the past, with all kinds of ways to dress them up for the present. Bonus points for Oregonians that aren’t always Girl Scout prepared: They can double as a hood and umbrella….

Royal Hat Retrospective

The Royal Wedding wasn’t just about the D&D of Cambridge. It was about hats, hats and more hats.

If I was Camilla Parker-Bowles, I would definitely stash a granola bar or two up in that brim. Weddings can go on a looong time.

Is the hat holding down her hair or is the hair holding up her hat? Some things we’ll never know.

That thing on Princess Beatrice’s head looks like a screaming emoticon with tears streaming down its face. Which, coincidentally, was the same face I was making while looking at it. :-0

When the Cabbage Patch doll emerges from the hat on the left it can climb into the banana boat hat on the right and sail away to safety.

I’m glad to see someone has found a purpose for recycling old woks. Environment first.

If Judy Jetson grew up to be a hat designer, this would be her catalog.

This hat may be proof that aliens do exist, their spaceships are very tiny and the government is covering up their existence by making their UFO’s into hats.

If the neck ruff gets any higher or that hat gets any lower she’s going to need some X-ray glasses.

I think she took a wrong turn en route to the Kentucky Derby. Hang a left at New York. LEFT!

Mother of the Bride wins on her width. Father of the Bride on his heigth. Yay for hat wars!

Hmmm, I actually kind of approve of the well matched outfits. No playful banter here!

Is it just me or if you stare very hard at the left hat and squint, do you kind of see an evil parrot?

I can never figure out to do with my walnut shells after I am done. Thanks for the idea!

When I look at this hat, I want a donut.

Craft tips: If you’ve forgotten a hat on the day of the big wedding, cut some tulle off the bottom of your slip and bobby pin it into a fashionable shape. Ta-Da!

The sea turtle she stole that shell from is very sad.

I think she may be wearing a Venus Fly Trap and he’s saying “Feed me Seymore!”

How is that staying on? Did Posh hot glue it to her forehead?!

So the Queen and the Mad Hatter were both invited to a clothing swap…….

The British do several things better than I can. These include (but are not limited to): making tea, playing soccer, waving, saying “holiday,” and wearing big ol’ crazy hats. Since I stayed up through the night to watch the actual Royal Wedding live (uh, it’s job related?), I had thought my sleep deprivation was instigating my hat giggling. Nope, turns out they really are that entertaining after a solid night of slumber too. Let’s head to the slide show for a full breakdown.

I learned many of my best life lessons by reading Laura Ingalls Little House on the Prairie series. It triggered my love of handmade clothing, adventure, and the importance of a good hat. And this soon-to-be-sunny season has the functional and fashionable item popping up in a big way. If you’re like me and feel you’re not really a “hat person,” the best motivation is to recall that there is no better eye cream and wrinkle fighter ever than a good sun hat. Plus, you can pretend to be Christie Brinkley in Billy Joel’s Uptown Girl music video, or Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman. The styles on the runway (think Marc Jacobs, Trina Turk, Missoni and Prada) range from retro-inspired floppy hats, futuristic sculptured pieces, and colorful brights. You can go from classic chic to trendy and funky and if you’re feeling very Ingalls-esque – the bonnet.
