I’ve just been looking through a roundup of photos from this year’s Royal Ascot. My favourite quirky hat has to be this one because of its wit (referring to the MP expenses scandal in the UK). Like everyone else, I’m disgusted at the behaviour of some of the politicians here so it was nice to see a photo related to this that actually made me smile.

Also included are Royal Enclosure ‘no nos’ (in this case, wearing strapless dresses…and I bet this lady constantly had to remind herself not to lean forward too far) ….

….and then there is a ‘what were you thinking’ moment captured for the world to see. Just too embarrassing, although I have to say I find the man’s attempts to save her blushes quite sweet.

There is a good selection of photos over at The Daily Telegraph.

I would love to have seen all the hats. I’m at a loss at ladies and no undies. Won’t be when they get my age.
LOL…I don’t get it either Bonnie!
How do you know that she does not have underwear on? She could easily have a thong on to reduce panty lines.
Hi Thad, Of course she could be wearing a thong, except that there would be no VPL under that floaty dress. Whether scantily clad or pantless, it’s definitely a ‘woops’ moment.
Ha! those are some great photos.
The whole spool of photos over at The Telegraph is great. There are some truly weird and wonderful hats.
