Hat Nostalgia

Do you long for the days when men were men and women were ladies? In those old days it seemed like everyone wore a hat. Oh! What heady days! In this blog I will discuss my nostalgia for hat wearing especially by women. The high point in my view was the 1930s. My goal will be to stimulate hat wearing by women - let's bring it back! Who says we cannot change fashion by creating our own movement? Show your personality ladies - put those hats on. Personally I wear a hat every day please join me!
