I’ve had a few requests for good and unusual (i.e. not department stores) hats to go with Autumn wedding outfits. May I direct you directly to Bundle McLaren. She is very good and reasonably-priced. She once made me a hat that had a ship on it, for real. It was amazing.

This one just for every day AMIRITE?

YASSSSS
Or how about you? Do you have a good hat dealer? Please share xx
Hop on my insta for plenty of hat-inspiration. @rachelehawkins17 I have most of mine made for me by a great gal called Sophie Hunter. She is based in Ireland but is creative, speedy & v.reasonable. @sophiehuntermillinery
My pal @fionajohnsonhathire hires out some very stylish hats for those not wanting to buy! X
Me again.(hats are my thing..)
If you’ve left it to the last minute & need something wow-ish, Carol Kennelly’s creations are fabulous & she has a ‘buy it now’ section on her website..

..which has loads of choice from the sublime to the ridiculous.
I can’t believe I’m sharing my best secret but annastaub.com is brilliant for hats and fascinators. I always go to her for something before a wedding – and ascot! And she’s always cool – never chintzy or OTT.
http://bee-smith.co.uk/ makes fabulous creations. My friend wore a flamingo headpiece of hers to our wedding and I have a beautiful floral piece which goes with everything.
I agree bundle is fabulous. I have her galia hat for sale if anyone is interested….
