Hats for the Holidays! Day 3

A hat from Rochester NY! Ive posted this before when I was doing the Throwback Tuesday!

(pardon the terrible pictures...Ive been lazy and have been using the kindle camera)

I love the pom-poms....they make the hat special!

A lil piece of history on a hat! Makes you wonder the stories behind them....who wore them, why they wore them, and what made them pick this hat!

Hats for the Holidays! Day 2

Another black velvet hat! This time with feathers!

It even has its own hat pin! Always handy to have! ;~)

At one point, it had a netting over the face which wouldve been quite pretty!

Tis a very pretty chapeau! Perfect for dressing up for the holidays!
