This week, several millinery designs caught my eye (see the comments for more):

  1. Kudos to Atelier Mela for their recreation of the hat in the Louis Anquetin painting. Their patron really committed to the look!

    The Hat Shop creation complements the embroidered jacket beautifully.

    Lots of pink and orange this week, which is a visual treat for those of us still waiting for spring. The Vivien Sheriff is a knockout!
