Stylish Hats for the Winter
Everyday Hats
The winter’s here again, and it’s time to wrap yourself up warm and prepare for the cold weather ahead. The best place to start is at the top, by choosing the perfect hat; one which you can not only wear everyday, but will also keep you protected from the falling temperatures. These days there are loads of hats to choose from, which you can team up with almost any style of outfit. Since fur is very fashionable this season, the knitted fur or faux fur trapper hat are ideal choices for the winter months. These hats are designed in a style which is extremely well insulated, and will cover your whole head. They also have side ear flaps for added protection, making them a great choice if you are out hill walking on a frosty day, or partaking in outdoor sports. They are usually accessorised with side plaits and/or pom poms.
The classic beret hat is a style which is also very trendy this season, and has many different designs. The knit beret hat comes in variations including the cable knit beret; a small, thick woollen hat, guaranteed to keep you warm and snug during the cold months. There is also the lightweight knit beret, which is made from thinner wool and is basically a lighter style of the cable knit beret hat. Crochet beret hats are another fluctuation of this style, and, as bows are very trendy just now, you can’t go wrong with a bow detail beret hat.
Other casual, everyday styles of hats include the crochet beanie, which covers the whole head to keep you well insulated and comfortable, but is also extremely fashionable this season.
The military and baker boy hats are a great option if the style you are looking for is for a more formal occasion, such as for work or for a night out. These styles will keep you looking smart and sophisticated, and right on trend for this season.
Occasion Hats
If you have a forthcoming special occasion, such as a wedding, you may be considering wearing a hat, but not quite sure which styles are in trend at the moment. Feathered hats are always a popular trend at weddings, and most styles tend to have some kind of feather detail to them. They are also very fashionable at the moment. The types of design of occasion hats which are good current choices, include down brim, wide brim and slanted brim styles. Bows are a firm favourite on the catwalk at the moment, so hats with bow detail are a great choice for an occasion, such as a winter wedding.
Some people find hats a bit overpowering and fussy, so a great alternative is a fascinator. Fascinators are simple headpieces which are attached to the hair, and are ideal for special occasions. As with the hats, fascinators can be found in a variety of trendy styles, including those with mesh and looped detail. Feather, flower, bows and bead are other alternative, glamorous designs.
