Karen's Kouture Korner - The Royal Wedding

So, I'm kind of an Anglophile... I love Monty Python, Rowan Atkinson, Doctor Who, English comedy, Top Gear, and a ton of other things from the British Isles.  I watched Princess Diana marry.  I watched Princess Diana buried.  I watched Prince Edward marry and today I watched Prince William marry.  


I will admit that I am grateful for cable and satellite TV.  In 1981 we didn't have cable or a VCR, so that meant that you had to get up early and watch something because a.) you wouldn't see it ever again and b.) you couldn't record it and watch it later.  Today, I slept through the live version and have been watching it as I do my chores and such.


A couple of comments before we get to the meat of this post...


- I loved the trees in the Abbey... it was so lovely to see them walk through a row of young trees.
- I thought the dress was very nice and simple and clean
- The music was so well chosen.  A John Rutter piece (natch!), some great boys choir numbers, and beautiful instrumental numbers.
- Speaking of music, perhaps my love of Monty Python ruined one of the hymns... all I could see in my mind was a half naked Eric Idle playing guitar and singing "Jerusalem."  Sorry!


So... 


What was up with those "hats?"  I'm kinda traditional but I do enjoy some funk in my fashion.  Here we go!

The tiny blue Indian would like his tiny blue canoe back...

Looks like a dead beetle on a dead branch.
And by dead branch, I mean Posh herself.

Stylish yet with a little flair.

Simple and understated.  I like the veil.

One or the other!  Either the bow OR the brim, not both!!!
