Royal Hats 
I love the queen’s dress and jacket – but I expected a more eye-catching hat choice from this fashion-conscious royal. Those gorgeous boofy fur sleeves really call for something more statement-like up top. This hat is too ho-hum for me.
A beautiful hat for a new queen!
That is a style that could be worn today!
