Cammy- you are right, it is a shame that nobody wears them anymore. I will keep wearing mine with pride though!RHAMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08292662958722009147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8452890445510196669.post-9206409294932819202008-03-25T15:58:00.000-05:002008-03-25T15:58:00.000-05:00I wore a hat to Easter mass.

I made it to go with a black linen shirtwaist dress with a very transition-to-the-50's-but-in-the-40's look to it. <BR/><BR/>The hat is one of those ones that looks like a very wide, stiff headband. It's also black. I made Schiaparelli Pink roses out of wide grosgrain ribbon and then made green leaves out of felt with machine embroidered veins on them. <BR/><BR/>The flowers up the right side of the hat and stop just before the center. And, it has a Little Black Veil. My shoes were of the same hot pink color.<BR/><BR/>I love my hat! I wish other people would also wear hats to Easter services. It feels so festive a joyful to have one on.

I just came over from Jill's blog and wanted to say how much I enjoyed what you wrote here....yes, I think something must be done so the women will don those hats next year....but why wait till next Easter? Why not wear a hat to church at least once a month....after all, they need to practice...then they'll find out how great it makes them feel (like I did this Sunday for the first time since I was a youngster..back when hats and gloves were move common). <BR/><BR/>Oh, and I like "that thing on your head." It looks great on you.Sara at Come Away With Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07677354270954094291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8452890445510196669.post-79975632705241472232008-03-24T17:48:00.000-05:002008-03-24T17:48:00.000-05:00I wear a hat to church every Sunday, and a hat mos...I wear a hat to church every Sunday, and a hat most days to work (a little less in the summer than the winter). And I am inevitably showered with attention and praise for it. <BR/><BR/>I don't know why in the world a woman would avoid wearing hats. Older folks love them, priests and other clergy love them, little girls love them, gay men <I>really</I> love them, and they all fawn over me when I wear mine.<BR/><BR/>You can't buy that kind of boost to your self esteem. %\:-)PhantomMinuethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16569580986314165225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8452890445510196669.post-45931907811507791982008-03-24T17:34:00.000-05:002008-03-24T17:34:00.000-05:00I thought my church was bad!

Several people commented on my hat, and lamented that people don't wear them any more. I wanted to say, "Why don't you wear one?!!" but I just smiled.<BR/><BR/>Keep wearing your hats, and keep smiling!Cammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10521646006012971234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8452890445510196669.post-78050022460066049472008-03-24T13:55:00.000-05:002008-03-24T13:55:00.000-05:00Love your hat and your rant!I'm hosting a virtual ...Love your hat and your rant!<BR/><BR/>I'm hosting a virtual Easter bonnet parade on my blog today.
