Hello there. We have such a cute Hattingdon for you today. It is a ‘travel in outer space’ inspired ballcap in the most gorgeous blue. Take a look. Isn’t she sweet?

Skye Ballcap.

The color is inspired by the “big blue marble” of earth as seen from outer space. It features an adorable rocket circling around a planet surrounded with dots and stars.

We renamed the design Skye after a sweet girl who dreams of being an astronaut herself some day.

First woman in Space

Do you know who the first woman to go into space is?

VALENTINA Side by Side
Valentina Tereshkova, Cosmonaut

“Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman to go to space in 1963, very early in crewed space exploration, and it would be almost twenty years before another flew (Svetlana Savitskaya).” Tereshkova remains the youngest woman to have flown in space under the international definition of 100 km altitude, and the youngest woman to fly in Earth orbit.” Read more »

You see, we are more than just pretty hats. Wink!

The disappearance and surprising reappearance of this hat is a mystery. We are still trying to figure it out. It looks to be one of Vivian’s earlier creations, doesn’t it?

The color combination is luscious— vibrant purple, hot pink and a wonderful sort of “olive” or khaki. Purple nosebobs complete the look.

We love a good mystery. If we ever figure out how she got “lost” and then found, we will be sure to let you know.

P.S. We updated the ears.

Warm regards, Hattingdon Horses

Oooooh, baby, it’s cold outside where we are. How about you? Right now we are at 16°F, and that is with the sun shining. Imagine if it were overcast.

Chilly weather has put us in the mood to post a winter hat, and we have a super cute one. Look.

Hannah wears a tassled winter cap in stripes of burnt orange, royal purple and olive green stripes. Purple earmuffs completes the look. Charming!

Stay safe and warm. Visit awhile. Take a look around. We have dozens and dozens of hats, designed to give you “a hatful of smiles”.

See you again soon. Hattingdon & Co.
