Circa 1938, I bet she is thinking "Dont I look good wearing this hat that you do not have but I know you must desire?"
1939 LIFE Isn't this 1930's top hat gorgeous, the moment I saw it, I was immediately reminded of the stunning creations from Topsy Turvy Designs. 
1939 LIFE Isn't this 1930's top hat gorgeous, the moment I saw it, I was immediately reminded of the stunning creations from Topsy Turvy Designs. 1939 LIFE Unique bird hat designed by John Frederics. When I saw this hat my first thought was I bet Solanah (a wonderful blogger, vintage seller and vintage fashionista whom you probably all also adore) would love it, and wouldn't fit perfect in her blog The Bird Hat
1947, I am dumbfounded on how this lovely little hat is attached to her head, either a ton of pins or maybe a magnet installed in to her skull....probably not but wouldnt it be kind of handy for sewing needles.

I love reading your blog. It helps bring me away from my work hum-drum. The only downside is that I want to continually shop!
ReplyDeleteThose are envy-creating chapeaus!
Love them all! I was so madly in love with vintage hats this winter that they were my total inspiration for my designs!

I feel the art of hats has gone out the window for ladies :0/ makes me a little sad. These are all glorious!
ReplyDeletewow, these hats are absolutely astounding. i love the light that the eyelet hat throws against her face. and 'triple A girl'? so funny :)
ReplyDeletePerfect! That last one is mine!
ReplyDeletePS: I Love the handbag in that first pic!
Vintage Angel- Awww thank you so much sweetie!
ReplyDeleteLinn Ekholm- Well thank you for visiting and dont be shy!
Graciebird- I am also in love with that barrel bag!
Thank you everyone for your comments xxoxo ♥
Those hats are stunning!
ReplyDeleteOh these are amazing...I really wish that it was more socially acceptable now to wear hats and gloves every day. Sigh...but I still wear mine and accept the strange looks:)
ReplyDeleteThey are all beautiful ... that first gal does look a mite smug .. she might hit us with her desirable handbag!
ReplyDeleteI definitely believe women should wear hats again !! I am pro-hats !! Thanks for posting these wonderful pictures !!
ReplyDeleteStrikingly gorgeous hats, I am especially fond of the top hat. For reasons I'm really not certain of, I madly adore the stylish, unique look of a woman sporting one of these traditionally male chapeaus.
ReplyDeleteBig hugs & many happy Thursday wishes,
♥ Jessica
Hey Darla. Thanks for the comments you left on my blog. I appreciate it. I hope you will stop by again. I love hearing from people. I really like your blog. I'll definitely be back again when I have more time. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteKelley Anne- I so agree with you, but I just think of it as people are staring because they think you look adorable and of a kind. Which we are!
ReplyDeleteMoonspinner- I could see it now. She hits us with her hard barrel purse and runs away so we wont steal her hat.
Frollein von Sofa- Yay for Pro Hats, we should start a movement!
Jessica Cangiano- Same here I yet to own one, but I really adore them. And thank you for the big hugs and wishes!
Keith- Of course, I love all the photos you post. Thank you!
I noticed the handbag in the first photo too - is it made from a large piece of bamboo? That's what it looks like to me. Anyway, I really like it!
ReplyDeleteI love hats, too. I'm Pro Hat! Maybe someone could create a little blog button (I can't do that sort of thing) for us to put on our sites to spread the word!
These are all amazing, but I must say the eyelet hat is the one I would most want to wear!
Great idea, I will try to whip something up after we get settled into are new house and I have internet at home, right now I only have internet at work and I do not have photoshop on my work computer.
ReplyDeleteyay for being pro hats!
I also adore the eyelet hat the shadow it leaves is amazing.
"1947, I am dumbfounded on how this lovely little hat is attached to her head, either a ton of pins or maybe a magnet installed in to her skull....probably not but wouldn't it be kind of handy for sewing needles."
ReplyDeleteMy official guess is a ribbon (maybe even elastic), sort of like a headband, with the hat set off to one side, and the ribbon secured to her hair. ;)
I love all of these so much, where are they now I wonder?
ReplyDeleteOooo those are some truly fantastic hats!
