Horse racing event Royal Ascot is really all about the headgear.
How not to admire these young ladies for bringing a little geek into the proceedings by topping off their finery outfits with iGear-inspired hats?
Sure, they could use a little more work (or maybe some geeky friends with giant iPod making expertise) to make them look realistic, but the over all effect is a lot better than some of the children’s-birthday-party-centerpiece-ate-my-head toppers that some of the other women were wearing.
