If your hat is conservative and elegant, like a fascinator, choose something sleek and classy to pair it with. However, don't overthink it too much. Trust your instincts and have fun.

Today I am taking a break from the series of articles I usually write, to bring you a subject I have thought about for a long time. I only started paying attention to wrestling in my teen years, so the "Attitude Era" was what I considered wrestling. I won't go into what made the era special, because that would be insulting to your intelligence, everyone knows what made the era successful, and why some fans still pine for it.
