Retro and Vintage Weddings

Pillbox Hats?

as i was working on the birdcage veil last night, my mother was waxing nostalgic about her own wedding back in 1969.
she wore a little white satin pillbox hat and suggested i could even wear it with a little veil attached.
i found this informative article about hats,
http://www.favorideas.com/learn-about/wedding-attire/wedding-hats
i had no idea they were so chic.
giving me another option, like i need another one, i'm so indecisive already lol
BUT the dress is a sheath so a small hat would look very retro....choices,choices
anyone considering  hats?

  • I think it could really work with your dress. I found something on Style Me Pretty that might inspire you.

  • lol that is adorable! its exactly what i am looking for! thanks for the suggestion!
    i checked ebay and theres alot of cute hats on there...ebay will be the death of me, i swear. every cute vintagey thing that may or may not work for the wedding, i'm watching it lol
    my mom is going to *attempt* to find her wedding outfit today, but with all the stuff in her house, it might be a couple weeks.
    anyway i'm going to target today to get a comb and try sewing the veil to that in the meantime. nice to have some options.
    happy sunday, all!

  • I'm a big fan of hats. If my dress worked with one, I would consider it.
