Hats, do you wear them?





 If so, Do you own a Louise Green Hat?




Louise Green  Millinery of Los Angeles has crowned heads since 1987

This is my Louise Green cap. It's probably an early design. 





This is my Louise Green Garden Hat.   It used to be my "good" Hat, about 30 years ago.  I took it off from my head only moments ago.  It is the coolest and most comfortable hat I own...that is what happens to a Good Old Hat. 

Have a great week my dear Blogging Friends

    Gina, I am not much of a hat person (unless I am out in a monsoon or blizzard) but these hats are works of art! I love your gardening hat. I am going to keep this milliner in mind. You just never know when you get in the mood for a pretty new hat. xo,

    Alas, such wonderful hats do not make me into a better vision, but I do own a boater with a blue and maroon striped band. But now I'm just jealous!

    I'm not much of a hat person but that would change if I could have hats like these. Such wonderful creations! I do so love your garden hat.

    Lovely hats. I wear sunhats but nothing else. Saw a lot of fantastic hats at the royal weddings lately. Have a nice week.

    Hello Mark, Does a boat go with your Boater? I bet you look pretty nifty in your stripes. Have a great 4th of July.

    Hello Bren and welcome to my blog. Hats are so practical, aren't they, not only for bad hair days.

    Hello Bernie, My old hat has has been retrieved from a lake, has been to Europe numerous times and has kept the sun off my face for many years. It's still my favorite.

    Hello Ingmarie, Love your macro photos. The Brits know how to wear fantastic hats, don't they. In fact, Louise Green is from England.

    Hi Keetha, I noticed that on Greene's website that they had a few straw designs. Nothing better than a good ole Panama hat to keep the sun from burning your face.

    Oh, they are lovely!!! I can appreciate them as works of art, but I'm afraid the only hats I ever wear are baseball caps... :)

    Wow, I love these, Gina! I would love to wear mine more. I have some good ones and have recently gained access to some vintage Schiaparellis. Now I need a new little black dress! xo – g
