The Most Bizarre Hats at the Royal Ascot Races

Life's a Beach
Model Danielle Lineker clearly understands the danger of too much sun exposure, so she chose this '70s-style floppy beach hat that conceals most of her head. Perhaps she didn't want the ladies who lunch to see her rolling her eyes as they walk past with bird's nests in their hair? Regardless, she wins the award for understated elegance in a sea of eccentricity. This photo was taken June 14, 2011.
