It seems that hats are coming back, and that the traditional rules of when to remove the hat are being eroded or ignored by the young hipsters who say "the hat is part of my look".

Well, I don't much care if someone takes his hat off indoors; the only situations about which I feel strongly are the National Anthem (anyone's) and churches (unless it is a synagogue and I see others wearing hats).

For reference, here are the traditional hat etiquette rules, per Emily Post

My hat, pictured above, is a utilitarian thing, not a fashionable thing, so I might look for a stylish hat.

What kind? Fedora, porkpie, bowler, trilby, driving cap, panama, etc?

Post pics of yourself in your favorite hat!

I'd like to get some inspiration.
