Royal Hats 
The slouchy bow of Neil Grigg blue percher make me think of the Duchess of Sussex. The reversed-out pattern of Tiffany Arey‘s dramatic saucer is nifty — very unusual.
We saw a lot of lilies of the valley in the “most flowers” challenge, and I was wondering why we don’t see them on current royal hats. But here we are with Anne Tomlin‘s caged percher! I love the way they’re tied into a posy. The cage design is so attractive. This airy design would be a great alternative to the donut hats and bandeaus.
Great news from Bhutan! And how lovely that the Belgians are continuing to spread good cheer.
Thank you for featuring my blue grey fedora HatQueen. I am puzzled as to what to post in the present situation. Things are getting rather desperate in Italy now; we worry about friends and aquintances. And it looks af if more people will loose their incomes than their lives, which is also worrying.
Yet, it won’t do to get all depressed. Colour and beauty are always welcome I suppose.
I love the beautiful percher made by Anne Tomlin. She is a ardent student of nature and her handmade flowers are true works of art. Like Anne, I feel I am blessed to have a garden, especially in these times of self isolation.
I hope you are all well, HatQueen and fellow bloggers where ever you are!
I love what you said: color and beauty are always welcome.
The similarity between these outfits is uncanny Shanon, well spotted and remembered. Yes indeed, proof positive that HM’s ensemble is ‘timeless”!
I do love that HM doesn’t always dress in a “majestic” style – her outfit is fun and fresh, in a sort of early Princess Anne way.
I managed to find another hat event for Princess Alexandra! Unfortunately, we often miss photos from her engagements and I think she usually wears a hat.
Princess Alexandra was in Buckinghamshire on 20 Febraury:

Have we seen this hat before?
Yes, on November 30, 2014. I would imagine she’s worn it other times as well but, as you say, she’s not always photographed.
The lovely new hat designs are much appreciated, HQ.
Gosh, that dachsund face hat Queen Margrethe is making takes me back. In kindergarten, I and my classmates wore “birdface” hats on our heads, just like the one the queen wears at the end of the video, to do a “Bird Dance” performance at the end-of-school concert. We also wore little capes of coloured crepe paper to represent wings, which we flapped with our arms. I dare say we looked hilariously cute. I don’t suppose I had more than a “colouring-In” role in the making of my birdface hat and costume. Parents had to be VERY hands-on with craft in those days.
Queen Margrethe is the best! I love how even she got a little frustrated making her wonderful craft 🙂
I think the milliners who are posting their creations is what we need right now. I love the burst of color in the headpiece by Amy Fowler (wasn’t Sheldon’s girlfriend on Big Bang Theory Amy Farrah Fowler?? Coincidence or is she now a milliner instead of a neurobiologist?) 😉
I love the two blush leather halo bandeau headpieces with statement flowers by Australian milliner Cessiah Alice. Stunning!!!
In other fun events, look at this delightful photo of Queen Elizabeth

Now, see Rita Ora’s outfit from September 2019, which I think took inspiration from Her Majesty’s timeless outfit: https://hienalouca.com/2019/09/15/rita-ora-looks-sensational-in-leotard-and-matching-boots-as-she-takes-to-the-stage-in-paris/
