I am currently looking to buy a hat (for research purposes). I went to a number of shops this morning and can report that there are precisely 0 smart-casual hats out there this season. If you want scruffy-casual hats you're fine, likewise if you're looking for wedding/funeral/Royal Ascot hats, but a smartish everyday item for the person like me who hardly ever wears them unless they're woolly with bobbles is proving annoyingly elusive. Whilst I'd be comfortable enough with scruffy-casual, they'd be wrong for the occasion. Whilst wedding/funeral/Royal Ascot would be perfect for the occasion, I'd feel really really uncomfortable, plus I'd never wear it ever again so rather resent the expense. Very irritating. But at least if that's the biggest of my problems then I suppose I'm not doing so badly in the scheme of things.
