Nice gesture. I wonder what $131,000 represents as a percentage of the royal family's fortune. ;)

Yep. I think Beatrice did herself some favours there, Grace. That was an excellent gesture.

Did love the graphic with it sticking to Spock's back though. Pity I can't watch that episode again tonight since I don't have a video player any more.

It's funny, because hats worn like that are called a "fascinator" and like it or not, that hat certainly has generated plenty of fascination!

LOL! You could wear the hat to a pretzel eating contest or a bow tying contest. There are all kinds of options there.

I think this girl needs a good set of braces rather than an ugly hat!!

Love this: :D

You have a choice of only one I can send to you.
The Hattus Ridiculosis is already gone, I've claimed that for myself.
So what I require from you Kirsten, is your address, and also an indication of whether you want the tapeworms alive or dead on delivery. ;):D

She's wearing it upside down. All the luck is running out!

It looks like a fancy towel-hanging ring in an old lady's bathroom.

Looks more like a toilet seat and lid with a bow wrapped on it. :D

A couple of links y'all might like. I enjoyed reading them.

The Hat's Face Book page (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Princess-Beatrices-ridiculous-Royal-Wedding-hat/203705509669392?sk=wall&filter=1)
After reading the above, I'm not sure the HAT-gate will diminish any time soon. It makes for an interesting vehicle for venting your frustrations.

A brief history at Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascinator) Nice short history


oohlalaplume (http://www.oohlalaplume.com/history-of-fascinators.html) Much longer history (still one page) of Fascinators

The Ampersand Article (http://arts.nationalpost.com/2011/04/24/the-rich-history-and-modern-rediscovery-of-the-fascinator/) Interesting article

Nice !!!! I love it.
I think tho, that it could be enhanced a bit more with a beer bottle, or maybe a half eaten Big Mac. Just to sort of give it a bit of character.
Is that my Mrs ??? With a hat like that on ??? She should be so lucky :D:D

That is one busy hat. :eek: You would really have to have really good posture to keep it altogether and it really has that recycled look. :cool:

A beer bottle and a half eaten Big Mac. LOVE IT!!!! Don't laugh! I MADE that hat!!

Sort of like "Trailer Trash Shabby Chique" (?) ???

Yes, she SHOULD be so lucky!!

As you can see Donna. The hat I like has an element of usefulness in it.
A faucet spanner, assorted dicount vouchers, and a cup. In fact, the only thing missing is the TV remote. But my next design will include one of those :p:D:p

They are very easy to make. Just strap a party plate on ya head, cover it in glue, and dip your head into trash can.
Viola !!!! Instant trend setter hat. ;)
