T Snook-Hatters

To hat fans who haven't yet visited T Snooks you're missing a treat! It really is the perfect place to find a unique fascinator, (I overheard a woman saying she'd found nothing like them in London or PARIS!) or a dashing Panama for a summer wedding.
They are also the organisers of The Bridport Hat Festival, to which people come from far and wide bedecked in their favourite headpieces. Stupidly I didn't take any pictures of the amazing array, it was all a little overwhelming. But whilst visiting Snooks I spotted this familiar hat
I was pretty amazed as I have one almost identical to it, if not a little faded(!), bought for me by my lovely Mum, about 8 years ago.
On chatting to the lovely Monica I discovered that hers had originally been worn to a Royal Garden Party (wow). Sadly I don't have any Royal Garden Parties to attend, but I love it all the same.

Green and pleasant land

With so many wonderful places in the UK I sometimes wonder why we go so far away

Godshill Isle of White

Morris Dancers, mad but wonderful

The Solent

Golden Cap, Dorset

One man and his (huge) dog

Salisbury Cathedral

Enchanting Edinburgh, I don't think I'll ever get over how beautiful this city is

September...

...was a wonderfully busy month, as was October, consisting of:
a beautiful photo-shoot,
Lovely little trips around the UK,
Amazing design opportunities with some great couples,
A rather lovely hat coincidence,
and
LOTS of chocolate

I will explain all...
