Megan ByrneHats? YES!

Having already expressed my abhorrence of the fascinator, it is now time to express my approval for a well chosen hat. Think of Rose de Witt Bukater's grand entrance in the film Titanic? Poised. Classy. Iconic. Memorable.
At Britain's Royal Ascot, arguably the most famous racing event in the world, hats are compulsory for both men and women in the royal enclosure. Say no more. If you want to be polished, sophisticated, and fit to move in royal circles, wear a hat.
If you have made the wise decision to forgo the fascinator and wear a hat to the Melbourne Cup or Oaks Day, Melbourne Milliner Louise Macdonald has a fantastic spring 08 collection ready to go:

Louise also has excellent credentials to back her creations. Her career as a milliner began after a series of evening classes she took while living in London, which were lead by Rose Cory, milliner to the Queen Mother.
Since then Louise has created hats for several BBC productions including Pride and Prejudice, Persuasion and The House of Elliot, and her creations have been worn by actresses such as Emma Thompson, Minnie Driver, and Helena Bonham-Carter.
