​​​N.B. As recounted in Read My Pins, “hats, like jewelry, can be expressive.” From her teenage years in Colorado, Albright developed a fondness for Stetsons. She rekindled this affection when traveling as Secretary of State, both because she liked the look and because as she said “I had more bad hair days than I could count.” ​​
