Normally, Fashionable Reader, I avoid all things riding and horse related in this blog. Because people who ride horses troll. I know, right? But yeah, they do. [Gives horse-related chip-on-her-shoulder scabber who came trotting over here via a google search the royal stink eye.]
Anywhoo, but I took a photo of this wonderful hat at the Degas exhibit and I couldn't resist sharing so I'm gonna take the risk.

I'm gonna pretty much leave it at that. Victorian riding hats are cool. I love how they are inspired by menswear.
Retro Rack is also on facebook where I post additional images and fashion thoughts.

I very much like that hat - but ones with long veils are much more fun; they give wonderful anonymity.
