Royal Wedding, Royal Hats!

Friday, April 29, 2011
Everyone's going crazy about the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton! Since no fashion blog is complete without covering the wedding of the century, it is highly likely that we would end up looking at the same pictures over and over. However, we may have different stories to tell!

When I was going through the live updates of the wedding in office, along with thoroughly enjoying looking at the lovely dresses the VIP guests were wearing I was also thinking how they could bring about novelty in almost every single thing they were donning including the hats! Let's take a look here.
