While shopping this weekend with fellow blogger royalty, Miss Talynhc, we came to the conclusion that women simply do not wear enough hats. Most guys, my husband included, have a serious collection of baseball hats. Sure, lovely ladies will wear a beanie here or there to stay warm in the winter, but hats as fashion statements are completely under-appreciated and lacking from far too many women's wardrobes. To fill the void, I have volunteered myself for a trend-setting experiment, which I plan to put into effect in the months to come. My secret weapon? The fedora.I initially disregarded this style, shrugging it off to the Britneys and K-Feds of the world. Recently, however, I realized the error of my ways. In my view, the Fedora is the cowboy hat of the classy and fabulous. Not to say that a cowboy hat itself isn't classy and fabulous, but it's surely no coincidence that F is for fabulous--and also for Fedora.
In my online perusing, I have grown partial to Tory Burch's Panama Straw Fedora Hat, but there are a range of options out there. In fact, if you're not sure this style will work for you, you can score one at Target and take it for a test drive drive at only a fraction of the price. To add an extra element of fabulousity, make an outfit out of it--pair your new hat with cropped skinny pants, a classic cardi, and a string of pearls.
As an added bonus, the American Cancer Society recommends wearing a hat to protect yourself from the damaging rays of the sun in an effort to reduce the risk of skin cancer. Healthy and haute?--yes, please. If F is for Fedora, then G is for go get yours now!
