A fascinator is a headpiece. \u00a0A delicate, slightly-to-very frivolous head decoration worn almost exclusively by women. A fascinator may be worn instead of a hat to occasions where hats were traditionally worn\u2014such as weddings\u2014or as an evening accessory. I became obsessed with fascinators a few weeks ago. \u00a0I needed a hat for a luncheon I was attending and I decided that I wanted one of the cute little numbers Kate Middleton is so fond of donning. If I told someone I was looking for a fascinator they looked at me a bit dazed and confused, but if I told them I wanted a hat like Kate Middleton&#8217;s they new exactly what I was talking about. \u00a0Not bad for someone under the age of 30 (she&#8217;s 29) who&#8217;s been dressing herself without the aid of stylists and haute couture designers thus far. I&#8217;m thinking we might have a style icon in our midst. \u00a0Only time will tell, but in a short period of time we&#8217;ve become fascinated with her fascinators!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #4b0082;\">Want your own fascinator, but you&#8217;re not working with a budget fit for a Queen?
