What style hat suits you best? There are many fun hat styles to choose from and with the colder weather upon us, hats help us to stay warm. Hats are timeless, stylish and ageless which is why we wanted to feature hats part of this months Ageless Ensemble. You can wear a hat at any age!
A great hat sends a positive vibe. It can be something magical, after all remember how Frosty the Snowman came to life? Hats shouldn’t be worn just to hide bad hair. They are a fabulous fashion statement. Hat’s communicate without words, not just a style, but also an attitude. Below are some styles that Brittany and I both like.
Beret
Berets are so chic. I’d wear a beret with leggings (love these) a long shirt (like this one), and a leather jacket or a wool cape. It may take a minute or two to place it properly. Channel your inner French girl with the je ne sais quoi.
Fur Hat
Fur Hats always remind me of the movie Dr. Zhivago. You can dress them up or down. You can wear fur hats with casual pants, dresses, or cashmere coats. The ones with flaps (trapper hats) tend to be a lot more casual. Those aren’t quite for me, but I do think they are cute.
Cable Knit Beanie Hat
I would choose to wear a beanie hat for a cozy look with jeans and a flannel. Beanies look great when paired with a matching scarf. To me they are a more comfortable casual relaxed style. You can wear beanie hats pulled close to your head or a little loose at the top. Brittany’s wearing her beanie below with a slouchy sweater and leggings
Fedora
Fedoras give off a trendier and more relaxed look. I would wear a fedora hat with jeans and an oversized sweater, robe coat, or a print dress. I think the felt fedora hats are a great look with a bomber jackets or a long wool midi coats. To me they give that 70’s hippie vibe. Remember Barbara Streisand’s fashion in A Star is Born?
Newsboy Hat
Newsboy or Baker boy hats are classy and vintage and can be worn several ways. The style looks great with buttoned down shirts, sweaters, vests, and blazers. Newsboy hats are my go-to right now. I actually have a few in different colors.
While you’re shopping this season, head out to your favorite department store and try on a few styles. Make sure that the fabric of your hat matches the contrast and color of your outerwear. Hats are the one accessory that set you apart from the crowd. Just make sure you keep your other accessories simple and understated. I am convinced that wearing a hat can change your day. A great styled hat will highlight a hidden feature in your personality.
Cheers!
