How come ?

I love hats, especially big flashy ones, try them on look in the counter mirror and I am just so gorgeous. Then I look in the full length mirror and a table lamp is reflected back! Unless I grow a lot fancy hats are not for me.

I have one of those fur type things for cold weather, I think they suit most people.

harrigran me too!

I quite like hats, both summer and winter, but I don't like 'hat hair' so I either have to go without the hat or keep it on all day.

I am not concerned with clothes but have to wear them, 1. I would be arrested . 2. It can get very cold half way up a Welsh mountain

I have always worn wraps, shawls, scarfs, pull on woolly / cotton hats in winter and floppy straw hats in summer - and clothes too . Suppose I am not a dress up person but a fling it on it will do person

I like to wear a hat in winter. I get awful earache if I'm out in the wind so I bought a beanie hat with an integrated earband, but it makes me look like a clootie dumpling if it get it down as far as my ears - they must be unusually low!

The only head warming gear that looks halfway decent on me is that favoured by our own dear Queen, the headscarf. Not much warmth in it though.

The Benny Hill comment struck a chord with me. Hats and scarves just make me look (even more) like a fat scare crow! Some people just have it and some don't. I don't.

I have a shelf full of scarves and pashminas which never see the light of day. I am short with no neck and they just bunch up and look comical. "In my next life " I am coming back tall and slender,

I love to wear hats, and do! Don't go in for the big fancy ones, just the 'cap' type, but I think perhaps my favourite will have to go this year, either it has stretched, or I have shrunk, because it now slips down over my eyes. Not a pretty sight, love shawls too.

I can't wear hats, despite being attracted to a great many that I thought would suit me. I try them on, look in the mirror and then throw them down in disgust. I am the ruin of a good hat! DD bought me a beautiful scarf last year and I love to wear it, but it is very long and no matter what I try and do with it, it seems to have a mind of its own! I am still doing battle with it, though!

I try to wear scarves and shawls but end up looking more like a fishwife than an elegant model.

Happens to me all the time. Huge gap between what I imagine a garment will look like on me and what the mirror shows me.

I'm sure you're much better looking than Benny Hill though.
