STYLE ADVICE: Millinery Magnet

It’s true that hats can be bold and sometimes hard to style, but more than anything, they spark interest and can make or break an outfit. Berets, caps, panamas, and even pillbox style hats can all be utilized when spicing up an everyday outfit. It’s always fun to experiment with different looks, colors, and textures. With an endless amount of hats being offered, I encourage you to drop into your closest vintage boutique or local flea market to find the perfect piece for you!

This Fashionista is a pro when it comes to eccentric hats and finds that it not only adds a quirky flare to her outfits but can be a form of expression. For her outfit, she wore a textured and patterned blue dress. The dark turquoise color makes her blue eyes pop and her porcelain skin glow. Her vintage hat showcases beautifully handmade flowers and the brim falls directly above her eye brows, making it a comfortable fit that she can wear all day. In an effort to not overwhelm the inclusion of the hat, this Fashionista opts for simple and dainty jewelry, wearing two rings and a thin charmed bracelet. For one final, yet subtle pop of fun, she wore socks with polka dots just barely peeking out from her simple black booties. When picking out her outfit, she wanted to look put together but still include her bright and outgoing personality.

This Fashionista is a great example of how easy it can be to put an outfit together featuring a hat, without being too overwhelming on the eyes. Step out of your comfort zone and try something new this month.
