Royal Hats 
Hat-wise this was a fantastic week. I think so many people worked to put their best foot forward and many thanks to all those behind the scenes in every capacity to make Royal Ascot a success!
Additionally, I liked Rosemary Mehta’s cerulean cocktail hat with feathers:

. . . and this beautiful Dillon Wallwork portrait hat on Pauline Vassiliades:
It is lovely to see the Duke of Kent at Royal Ascot. He must have attended almost as many Ascot meetings as Her Majesty.
The lady in the first carriage with the Duke, Mrs Dudgeon I think, is in a beautiful, blue, wide brimmed hat which is lovely with her floral dress.
Charlotte Hawkins and Rosie Tapner both look lovely again.
