What hat with a PC?

[Highland Logan]

Looks like I'll Have to be getting an Argyle as well...And use sunscreen with the PC.

Sunscreen? The Prince Charlie is evening wear... I don't think you'll need much in the way of sunscreen.

. . . Unfortunately, many people in this country wear a hat indoors and think nothing of it.

I, too, think very little of it.

I know of only one anomaly in the application of the "no cover indoors" rule: a hotel lobby is not indoors. But this may be a custom that has died since the mid-20th century. (" . . . more honored in the breach than th' observance . . .")

All the Midwesterners in my family were raised (myself included) to always remove your hat indoors.

If you are looking for an example from a Scotsman then who else but Scotland's First Minister, Alex Salmond -

I'm just an ugly American... but that looks terrible to my eyes!

Personally, I'm with the native Scots here- no hat looks good with black tie attire. However, given the fact that in Denver, it get's rather cold and windy, it would be foolish to let fashion dictate to common sense. I'd say a Balmoral would be acceptable, but to beat the dead horse a little more... Eh, never mind.

Well said. Unfortunately, many people in this country wear a hat indoors and think nothing of it.

Yes. And they wear them everywhere! I go to my mother's church twice a month, and it never fails- there's someone wearing a hat- in services! And they say I'm a heathen...

But since I am follicley challenged(bald), I must needs wear a hat.

There's always this option:



Toupee: Perfect for all occasions!

Also, I believe it would be considered perfectly good form to wear a kippah or other head covering while attending a service at a synagogue (e.g., as a guest at a wedding)... though I also suppose it's not likely that such an occasion would warrant black tie.

That thing looks like some animal that tried to eat his head! ...or is it just me?

Outdoors was assumed, only heathens and the unschooled would wear a hat indoors.

And of course women

Yes, it is sad, but the new NASCAR culture that is challenging good manners of all sorts has set a new social norm of hats indoors in the US.

Sad, but true.
