Fashion Dare: Top off your style with a Hat
May 13, 2010

Once upon a time, you wouldn’t have dared to leave the house without your hat, but in more recent history the once great wardrobe staple has been reduced to an occasional trend of passing fancy, a bare necessity for noggin warmth or relegated to it’s weakest form, the baseball cap.
However, current runway collections and street style websites indicate the triumphant return of the hat and not just the chapeau du jour, but hats in general. So right now is the perfect time to bring a stylish topper into your wardrobe mix.

I am obsessed with hats. I am obsessed with trying them on and seeing how they look. I love fascinators too and those massive decorative head bands… I have a wedding to go to here in London later in the year… hats are appropriate attire, so maybe I’ll try it. x.
