Fashion Friday - Hats.

Today's the day: Fashion Friday. I'm joining Kori at Blonde Episodes today with a fabulous post on hats. I really strive to accessorize my outfits. And what a better way to do this than with a hat. Besides a scarf, a hat is the next best thing. Most of these pictures are "me" in my favorite hats. And of course a few at the end that I'd love the fashion fairy to drop off at my place.
Have a wonderful Friday! I plan on devoting at least 10 hours (hopefully more) in my design studio. I hope to take a few offers off to lay in the sun with Bernie and catch a movie with Mom, Super 8. Don't forget to stop by Blonde Episodes and link-up and visit the entries.

This was a fun little break with Bern, in Barcelona (and Italy).
Yes, I wore an NYPD hat (small American flag on the back) while in Europe.  Yes, I really did.
It's one of my favorite hats; I've had it since 9-11 (it was bought several months later at Disney in California). 
And I consider it a good luck charm of sorts.
At the Trevi Fountain in Rome flipping a coin over my shoulder -- so that I'll go back one day to Rome. 
This hat was bought at a hat shop in Rome for warmth.  And I love the brim.  Love it!

Sorry, I couldn't resist including Bern's flip too.

I believe this was in the Vatican or the Borghese Gallery...I can't remember. 
Bern let me know if you can remember. 
Or if one of you notice let me know.
LOVE this hat!  I bought it right off the shop owner's head...well, it was at The Believe Boutique.  Really, she was modeling it.  I love the jeweled flower.  This hat looks absolutely fabulous with a long sleeve white t-shirt and little to now makeup.  The hat just "pops".  Love it!  Don't you?
I just had to include my graduation picture from last year.  It was several years late at the age of 34 but, I accomplished it!  Graduated with my BA in Psychology.  Yay me!  It's still an amazing feeling.
{My little sister, Mel and I}
Yes, that's me in my fabulous Victoria Secret Santa Hat and matching shirt.  I look fabulous!  Too funny, I know.
 But, I have to look the part of the "official" present giver-outer.  Yes, that's me.
 I'm 34 and I still pass out the presents.  Love it! 
And it's a bit comical that I'm holding a Starbucks Iced Venti Green Tea -- priceless. 
Mel, I hope you don't mind that you made the blog today...

Since I've moved to Arizona I always wear a visor at the pool or the beach.  The exception is when I wear my floppy straw cowboy hat when it's 120 degrees outside and I'm in the pool up to my chin.  My ASU visor is a signature HP item.

I dont' own a fedora but, I think I need one...don't you?



Words don't describe these two fascinators:  simple stated - I love them! 
PS - I'll being creating one or two for my Blondie's Shop (my etsy shop). 

Fashion Fairy:  pretty please, with sugar on top, please deliver this to my closet. 
Pretty please.  Thanks.  Oh, and a maraschino cherry too!
