If you love a bit of equestrian flair, you will love the Dee Dee Classic hat.

The Dee Dee design is created in the Hattingdon classic hat silhouette in a gorgeous hunting green.

Vivian added a stirrup inspired motif in white on the front at the base of the hat’s crown. Wonderful! Did someone just say tally ho?

See you back here soon. Happy Classic Hat Monday.

This week’s Classic Hat Monday features a fabulous look. Vivian named the design Viveca.

The Viveca classic hat features a black dome and rich red brim. The hatband and nosebobs are a rich golden yellow decorated with an animal pattern made of alternating letter V’s in white.

This look is so popular, a big favorite and deservedly so.

Happy Classic Hat Monday!

Blog updates

For those of you who stop by regularly, you must have thought us schizophrenic. We have been chopping and changing things here for such a long time. Alas! We believe we have finally gotten it together. How?

Hattingdon creator Vivian Grant recently went on a really cool course on the use of color — what it means and what it does — how to use it in the right way etc. She came away refocused and ready to go. The look of the blog now is the result of that.

“Finally, I have Hattingdon’s blog in good shape but still with many of the things that I like,” she says. “The course taught me to pause, take a step back, think about it for awhile, then decide. My previous approach had become the old ‘throw it against the wall and see if it sticks’ method”.

Another of the things Vivian learned was that her favorite color is orange. There is a really good reason for that. Bourne Creative (cool name, huh?) writes:

“Orange is associated with meanings of joy, warmth, heat, sunshine, enthusiasm, creativity, success, encouragement, change, determination, health, stimulation, happiness, fun, enjoyment, balance, sexuality, freedom, expression, and fascination. Orange is the color of joy and creativity.”

Perfect! More about the color orange here »

Thank you for staying with us! Warm regards. Hattingdon Horses.
