#5 Boater Hats

So everyone knows by now that boater hats are all the rage this spring. I wasn't sure at first how I felt about them at first, but I have to admit they are growing on me.
There's something just so jaunty, perky, and devil may care about these slightly askant sassy little hats. I think I actually prefer the more simple straw ones to these glitzy Marc Jacobs numbers. I love this one from the ever lovely Rhiannon and Clever Nettle had an excellent post with lovely photographs and great advice on finding the perfect boater that has been making the rounds lately. There's something almost Huckleberry Finn-esque about these hats that makes you want to play hooky and sail away on a raft!
And of course, my favorite boater of all time: the absolutely perfect in every way, Mary Poppins!
