How about a headscarf rather than a hat? They can be tied in funky ways, and don't make you so hot.

Thanks

It is hard, but there must be loads of people in the same situation...I agree with what you say though, for the 'not too young not too old look' it's a nightmare! Maybe just put loads of sunblock on her head!

Thanks

big hat thread for someone else with head trouble here - may be some useful ideas.

Thanks

AnnabelCaramel · 03/04/2007 10:01

I think you need to invent something for the 'awkward buggers' and make millions!

Thanks

KittyLetteMeEatAnEasterEgg · 03/04/2007 10:02

OP posts:

Thanks

AnnabelCaramel · 03/04/2007 10:04

Don't be teary stay cheery, that will help your mum more. And if your eyes are blurred with tears you may end up buying a really bad hat! Good luck.

Thanks
