ALL IN THE DETAILS: All That In A Wool Hat

If you’re ever feeling blue, take a cue from this Fashionista and try a wool hat on for size. It’s the perfect thing to spice up your look and can be worn with just about anything. Wear a floppy hat with a bohemian look to enhance the ’70s vibe, or rock a floppy hat with grunge attire to add to the dark mystery of your persona. The best part of a floppy hat is that you really only need one in your wardrobe. A floppy hat can be found in just about every style lookbook out there and will certainly match whatever style you’re feeling on any given day, even if it’s Hamptons-chic one day and ’70s flower child the next.

Besides taking your look up a notch, a large hat does wonders for a bad hair day (not that this Fashionista’s locks are lacking!). Anyone can stuff their unwashed hair into a beanie or force particularly unruly strands into a top knot, but a floppy hat can be worn even on good hair days. No one will know whether you’re rocking your hat out of necessity or just for fun. Besides, they’ll be too distracted by your rad look to care!

How To: While a floppy wool hat is incredibly versatile, this Fashionista demonstrates an interesting way to wear it, which is with a monochromatic outfit. If you’re new to the floppy hat game, stick with a color that’s easier to wear, like navy or black. If you’re looking for a style challenge, check out a floppy hat in a wild color or pattern. Don’t forget to add pattern and texture to your outfit as well to complete the look.
