Cartoon Horses with Hat-titude
Delores is one of the earliest hats Vivian designed and created for Hattingdon. The hat now comes in three colors — classic black, luscious pink and just added — a gorgeous lilac.
Oh yeah. Take a look.
She looks absolutely smashing in these hats.
Thank you for spending time with us. We hope it gave you a “hatful of smiles”.

Welcome to another Classic Hat Monday.
The Stacey classic hat design is one of those looks that can be worn for just about any occasion. The three linked squares in pure white across the front of the dome is a wonderfully classy look.
Black and white together always make a crisp, clean fashion statement. We hope you enjoy it.

TODAY Hattingdon is wearing a cheeseburger hat. Yes, you read that right — a cheeseburger hat. Bet you did not expect Vivian to do that!
While ruminating on a name, Vivian decided to take a look into the history of the cheeseburger for inspiration. Wow. It was a lot more than anyone expected. See “So who did it?” at the end of the post.
Vivian decided to use the name of the man for inspiration who many believe made the first ever cheeseburger in 1934 in Louisville, Kentucky — Charles Kaelin. Result? Named her Kaylen.
A Quick Bite into the History of the Cheeseburger, by The Dairy Alliance, reports the following:
We have Lionel Sternberger to thank for his invention, or so the legend goes. Much like the hamburger, it’s impossible to know for sure who created America’s first cheeseburger.
Lionel was 16 years old in 1926, flipping burgers at his dad’s restaurant, the Rite Spot, in Pasadena, California. Out of boredom, the teenager slapped a slice of American cheese onto a hamburger frying on the griddle. His dad approved of the creation, and so the cheeseburger was born—though they called it the “cheese hamburger.”
The first sandwich to actually be called a cheeseburger was created in Louisville, Kentucky. Charles Kaelin invented the cheeseburger in 1934 to bring extra flavor to his hamburger offering. But he didn’t trademark it. Nope, that honor instead went to Louis Ballast of Humpty Dumpty Drive-In in Denver, who trademarked the name “cheeseburger” in 1935.
There is much more to this story with a host of variations over many generations concerning who did what — and what it actually was that they did. Then we have this.
The answer to who invented the hamburger is almost as challenging as the cheeseburger. Think we are kidding? Check out the links below. See you again soon.

Just for you, Hattingdon is modeling a delightful new hat created by Vivian in a charming array of colours. The hat is very feminine, with a touch of the Tudor period, and highly fashionable. Let’s see them shall all . . . shall we? We named the hat “Colette”.
We hope you enjoyed these hats, and they gave you a “Hatful of Smiles.”
Love, Hattingdon.
