If your mother is anything like mine, she probably used to yell at you all winter: “If you don’t put on a hat, you’re going to catch pneumonia!” I hated wearing my stocking hat when I was younger—all the cool girls had ear muffs or knit headbands. Oh, how the times have changed. Now, I’d wear any of the elegant hats below every day without complaint. When it starts to snow and I’m walking down the street wearing my ribbon-trimmed cloche, I’m going to feel like the most sophisticated girl in town.

One size doesn’t fit all, but these hats are really beautiful, even though they won’t fit my head.

I love them all, but when I wear hats like that people look at me like I’m a loon. Sigh!

I really love cloche hats, but I have a large head too. And I do feel very odd when I wear a hat, especially from the looks I get.
