  1. The Shandana de la Riviere is a stunner! The watercolor transforms that boater into a work of art! Just beautiful!

    I’ve been reading about Princess Mako and her upcoming wedding. She has been through so much over the years, and I hope she has a fulfilling, happy and peaceful marriage. I’ll miss seeing her at Imperial functions.

  2. Lots of lovely hats! And not a percher in sight… now the next thing to disappear will be the bandeau, and I will be happy. Teambrim#
