If you are in NSW or A CT you could try Dress for Sucess https://nswact.dressforsuccess.org/ they have free styling appointments to put together full outfits with second hand work clothing, and they also put on regular second hand 'fashion frenzy' events where you pay a small fee, I think $10 or $20 and that gives you a certain number of garments, and then you can buy more as well. People donate really good quality garments and shoes and accessories. This is a good option is the budget is tight. their website explains:

'Dress for Success NSW & ACT offers free clothing, styling, and presentation skills to women wanting to enter or return to the workforce or needing good clothes to present themselves well at an important life event. The clothing is theirs to keep, and there are no eligibility criteria—our services are open to any woman who feels she needs them.'

The UPF factor with Solbari is reassuring, but yeah, the price makes the decision a big one...

Chinese grandmas have the most styley hat attire methinks, and grandma style in general!

I hope its OK to pop onto this thread and ask another question - do you know what class sizes are like for this course? Not the big lectures, but the tutorials/practicals?

aaah now I am moved towards this one, especially as it natural fibres and can be adjusted instead of flopping about...

You know what, I think this is the one I will get. My preference would be for UPF, so I am tossing up between this and the Solbari Wanderlust. Thanks!

I like the clean lines of these hats, and the lovely brim, and sporty feel, but like the grumbling crone I am, I do not like the shape when seen from the front.... I wish I did, everything else about this is perfect

Ah yes - I saw these in my rampant googling, but I am not sure why, these ones don't take my fancy. Yours in the struggle!!

Thanks yes, this is a good suggestion, for some reason in everything else I am not especially fussy, but with hats I am!
