It’s so good this type of stuff is laid on for the ladies. What do they have to complain about again? Something, probably.
The second one should be complaining to the puma that attacked her outfit

Where middle income Irish pretend to be home counties landed gentry.
And fail.
Mr. T.s obsession with class continues unabated.
The entire country is obsessed with it.
Judging by how much you refer to it, you more than most.
He just really loves the film School Ties.
Frightful, ghastly development.
Christ, state of yer man. He looks like toad of toad hall fcuked the paddy from one direction.
He’s got his country disco shoes on. He’ll go down well on Harcourt Street tonight.
It looks like someone superimposed the head onto his body.
Why are they called hats?
Shouldn’t they be called ‘sculptures on bobby pins’ …because, let’s face it, they’re not hats anymore…. accept the little girls one at the end, the rest is just bits-of-things-that-can-sometimes-look-good-when-done-right.
Funny you should ask – they’re actually called fascinators.
Fastened Fascinators
….sounds a bit DBSM to me :)
Nice to see the hats fitting the heads, and the hair styled to suit both hats and faces.
Dublin showing much better than Galway, in this instance.
Poor architecture, poor planning, poor dress sense…

Like school in July….
Who wants to be a milliner?

OMG WIMMIN WEARING THINGS WE DON’T LIKE, TO THE PITCHFORKS!!
They keep bored young Foxrock women in pocket money.
All those calves, and not a mart in sight !

Yikes.
When the revolution comes…
We all get hats like this?!! Amazing!
Haha!
+Hehe
…they’ll know how to ride horses while we all murder each other for bicycle tubes. The richest and poorest of society will benefit and the unfortunate squeezed middle will fail to cope.
What’s with all the pastels?
Amateurs.
Have they no jobs to be going to, Joe?
Laughable ostentation and self-aggrandisement, but whatever floats the peoples boats…
