    A fascinator's not a hat, it's an alice band with feathers stuck on it. Should be reserved for school girls and premiership footballers. It's not a proper HAT!

    She should take a leaf out of QE's book. Now there's a lady who know's a thing or two about hats!

    I did see a lady in a tartan skirt. She was sitting on the front row. The tartan sort of reminded me of the Chattan tartan.

    I too was looking for kilted gentlemen. The Brits do know how to put on a great show. The uniforms on the men and the hats on the ladies were spectacular. I did expect to see kilts on some of the participants and was disappointed.

    That's 'cause he's not a premiership footballer anymore.

    Best part for me was seeing the St.Andrews Cross leading the spectators to Buckingham Palace for the viewing of the kiss. Hats off to the person whom so proudly carried it

    Except the the person who brought Fascinators back into fashion was Kate herself I beleive she wore one to an event, but I cannot remember what event that was, it was on one of the fashion networks prior to the wedding. ::
