Hat's off to the unique apparel being donned at the 2012 Republican National Convention. Between talk of who the mysterious, unannounced GOP speaker will be, Twitter has been abuzz with talk about the unique things that people are wearing at the RNC.

Wonder if we'll see the hats worn at the RNC at the next Kentucky Derby? Quite fetching.— Melani Robinson (@Melani_Robinson) August 30, 2012

My vote: RNC has the best hats pins and Wacky sunglasses— Ms. Brooks (@TheREAL_MBrooks) August 30, 2012

Among a sea of cowboy hats, there are also hard hats, sequins and plenty of other patriotic duds. Mashable reporter Alex Fitzpatrick is on the ground at the Tampa Convention Center, where all of the action is happening.

Some are going as far as incorporating social media into their outfit. Out of all the crazy attire, we tip our hat (sorry) to the woman from Kansas who not only coordinated her sequin vest to match her bear -- it also has a Facebook Page, which features updates and photos of where the stuffed animal is at the convention.
