We know that summer’s miles away, and I’m guessing that we’re not all huge horse racing fans anyway, but we read a news piece in Grazia this week that sparked an idea for a blog post.

Apparently Ascot, the world famous horse race meeting that is a staple of the British Summertime is banning the wearing of fascinators! The fascinator seemed to be hitting it’s peak of popularity following the Royal Wedding last April, with Kate Middleton boosting awareness of these feathery pieces that perch on the side of people’s heads. But Ascot say no!

They’re tightening up the dress code across much of Ascot this year so it’s hats only (well, not hats only, but you know what I mean)! So with that in mind we wanted to look at some of today’s most stylish hat wearers…

As always, we’d love to hear from you on our Facebook page so if we’ve missed someone out, make sure you tell us. And feel free to post pics of you or your favourite people in hats too xx
