Ruth Bader Ginsburg's Ever-So-Eccentric And Thoroughly Charming Style (PHOTOS, POLL)

When Ruth Bader Ginsburg rolled up at Wednesday's Sotomayor reception in a glamorous gold robe and the most charming lace gloves we've ever seen, we were hooked. We couldn't get enough of this woman's clothes.

So here we present Justice Ginsburg's most noteworthy style moments. Are her fashion statements hits or misses? You be the judge.

July 2003

With gal pal and fellow Supreme Court Justice (now retired) Sandra Day O'Connor outside Elysee Palace in Paris. Lace gloves were involved, of course.

Intelligence, courage, perseverance, integrity never go out of style. Justice Bader-Ginsburg has these qualities in spades.

What is WRONG with you people at HuffPo?

You just can't stop with the sexism?

Looking forward to your similarly dismissive and insulting polls on John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, and all the rest of the Supreme guys. I feel sure that will be posted at once, will it not?

The one of Justice Ginsberg with Justice Thomas guffawing is so deserving of a "Caption This."

She's charming for sure, but I wouldn't call her very eccentric.

Wow... I just love her style! I know that some don't like the tophat, but take a closer look... it's not just a simple hat. Very cool sense of style.

I hadn't known much about her style prior to this, but now I'm a fan. She is entirely appropriate for her age and her profession, while incorporating a personal and witty flair to her outfits. A new role model!

I love the way she dresses. We could use allot more women like her.

Why is she wearing the Ove' Glove in that first photo?
