Some Personality from the Netherworld

Today I bring you small hats from the Netherworld courtesy of the Shadow Fairy Queen.  These hats are dark, but lovely.  Think gothic or dark steampunk.




I'm such a little devil.

Red's Ribbons

I know we normally deal with more traditional hat than fascinators, but when Red's Ribbons sent me some pic I just had to indulge. These hats and fascinators are made with recycled material and shiny new things. :-)
Yes, there is a dinosaur in there!

So cute!

I love the gypsy feel this has.
Bling.



Who doesn't love sparkly?

Everybody Loves a Clown



I'll be honest, clowns terrify me.  Thank you Tim Curry and Stephen King for making it worse.  But I digress.  The pill box above is from SWEETHEARTSINNER CREATIONS.  I chose this because he isn't wearing a typical tiny clown hat.  I think the fact that the small hat is more of a "normal" style makes it more amusing.

You Like Hats? I'm Mad About Hats!



Today we are taking a little trip to Wonderland courtesy of the Sai-Sai Shoppe.  I am a HUGE fan of Alice in Wonderland, so I am loving this eye candy.  These beauties are perfect for a convention, Halloween, or your own tea party.  I'd go with a themed birthday and give the "Queen of the Day" the small crown.

A beautiful crown fit for a Queen.

Dogs with tiny hats are really starting to catch on.

Hello Mr. Octopuss

A friend posted this on my Facebook wall.  She included the message, "He even has a dog named Weenie that's actually a hotdog. BUT LOOK AT HIS HAT."

Puss in Small Hat

Steampunk Cat

If you read this site regularly, then today's entry is probably no surprise.  For those fairly new I will explain.  Here at THW we are more than just people wearing tiny hats, we are all things relating to undersized hats.  This pretty work of art featuring the kitty with a small hat is simply called "Steampunk Cat".  The artist, Carrie Hawks, specializes in fantasy felines.  If you are a big cat lover, like me, please check out Tigerpixie Art Studio for this and more.

Extravagance

La Femme Rouge*
While simple hats can be nice, sometimes you want a little extravagance.  And sometimes you want a lot of extravagance, which you can find at La Coco Rouge.  These hats display sophistication with a bit of a wild flare.  The detail in some of the hats, like the Dark Heart, is truly beautiful.  Perfect for any tiny hat enthusiast.

Couture Designs


If you are into burlesque, gothic, or just like feathers then I have the hats for you.  Couture Designs by Ice Green Eyes has unique hats for those looking for a darker style.  The best way to describe these beauties is feathers and tulle.  For a real treat scroll all the way down to the bridal hat.


Lovely Bridal Mini.

More Pictures from SheVaCon






Made by Cathy Harmon
Conventions are a great place to see tiny hats.  You have all the big fashion groups in one place- Steampunk, Gothic Lolita, and Anime Cosplay.  If you have any tiny hat pics from a convention please share!

The Truly Teeny Tiny Hat

Tiny Mad Hatter
After searching far and wide I think I may have found some of the tiniest top hats ever.  Cruzz Art has a lovely selection of tiny hats for every taste.  To give you an idea just how small these hats are, Ball Jointed Dolls and Barbies can wear them.  I find them to be a joy to look at.  The Amazing Teeny Tiny Cupcake Hat is my favorite!


I love that it is pink with cupcakes!
Perfect for a spot of tea.
Very colorful and bright.
This one looks bridal to me.

Man's Best Friend

I was sent this awesome picture of awesome:

Even man's best friend dresses up for a convention!

That is right!  A dog in a tiny hat!  Now I know this isn't the first time we've had a dog wearing a tiny hat, but it hopefully won't be the last either. There is just something wonderful about a dog in a tiny hat.

Toki sporting an awesome hat.

Live From New York

Miley Cyrus on SNL
The sketch was about a cruise lounge singer who insults the audience in song.  I couldn't take my eyes of the tiny captain's hat she wore.  :-)

Gold and Feathers

Lovely use of peacock feathers.

I am not normally one for gold, but this is a beaut.
Friday's finds come from All Chained Up.  It may seem like your typical Neo Victorian/Steampunk shop on Etsy, but that just means you aren't looking close enough.  How many shops can you get earrings that compliment your tiny hat?  Not many, and I would know.

Remember, if you buy a tiny hat from any of the shops that have been featured please send us pics.  We would love to see you show off your new tiny hat!

A Tiny Bit of Class

Tiny Top Hat Headband

Weensy Top Hat Headband.

Today's hats come from Stinkberry Fairy's Emporium of Odd on Etsy.  These are simple, classy hats that could be work for any occasion.  I really like the Weensy Top Hat because it looks like it was made to be paired with a matching skirt and some dark tights.  But maybe that is just me.  The shop also has some rather cute "sock dolls".  Maybe they will sell some wearing tiny hats?  For more information on these hats, please visit Stinkberry Fairy's Emporium of Odd.  You won't regret it.
