Primark had some ace hats last year...I got mine for a single english pound!

It is however very margo, but then so am I I liked it! It's big, round, black, but it did have a wired brim so not at all floppy!

DD says it's like the hat in Friends ... so now everybody wants to be under the hat...

No suggestions but I feel your pain - have been on a few fruitless hat shopping trips and may end up resorting to a children's cap with neck protecting flap!

There has to be something better out there!

maybe a fedora is the way forward...could it work on a disgruntled, sweaty yet somehow chic late thirtysomething matron i wonder

I started a post about Sunhats about a week ago and someone posted a nice one on their I'm tempted by

I love hats. Fedoras are my favourite, and yes of course it will work, it will serve to enhance that chic vibe.

fedoras are not sunhats!

A sun hat has to be margo-esque...it's the law
