Hats are a useful and necessary article
of clothing. Hats protect our heads from the weather when it's cold and
windy, and they provide shade for us in the beating sun. I SUPPOSE that
, at one time, the whole idea for Head Wear was the "usefullness" of
the thing. Today though, HATS...have become a way of sending
a message about who you are..or maybe even how you are feeling on a
given day. A hat can say "I am romantic and
mysterious" or..."I am all BUSINESS"..or even.."I am playful and
silly." By the same token...Hats can tell us of a
persons trade..." He is a Construction Worker in his
Hardhat."...or " She is a Chef in her Chef's Hat"....or.."He
must be a Cowboy in that big ole Ten Gallon Cowboy Hat."
There are times that it
is
important to wear a Hat as you MUST be recognised for that particular
position in life or work. Such as a Navy Sailor that
wears a regular Sailors Cap...Whereas his Captain will wear a different
type of hat all together. When we have a Renaissance Queen
and Ladies all attending court..How will we know which is Queen without
the proper Headgear? The Queen is likely to be wearing a
Crown or a Bejeweled and Gold
Circlet to show her station. While the Ladies in
attendence would probably be properly attired in a French Hood, Headband Fall, or Silk Veil. (the renaissance headgear
just
mentioned can be found at The Tudor Shoppe under "Hats & Headwear" on their
menu). just click on the hat for more details ~from CostumeKingdom.com   Hats are so cool but
there
are just SO MANY !! I
have come
across a GREAT place for "HATS". It is a HAT STORE, believe
it or not, and it has hats for every day wear...and hats for
those strange moods we sometimes find
ourselves in. MOODS that say " I feel like being somebody ELSE
today."....or maybe just "I feel like being SILLY today so maybe I'll
put on my "SILLY HAT for all to see!"".
Since the whole IDEA of my site is "Costumes" I will try to stick to
hats that are in that category...OR...HATS that are out of
the ordinary to the point where I cannot help myself
and I MUST show them to you. (I will also post some hats from
this store on pages fitting their
theme. i.e. "Christmas Jester Hat" on
Christmas/Holiday Pages. Here are some GREAT HATS as brought to you by The Village Hat Shop:

you can access just by clicking the link. Remember that most of the costume stores that I post on these pages carry hats also, so while you're browsing one of them looking for your costume, check out their "Hat" department. You may find just the thing you need to TOP OFF your costume. <>Below are some
