How To Choose Hats That Will Accentuate Any Outfit

By Roger Hayes


If you are thinking about experimenting with fashion, you may already be considering how to accessorize your wardrobe. While many people think of accessories as scarves, bags and other minor items, they may not consider how hats can add to or take away from an outfit. If you would like to choose a hat to wear with your outfit, here are some tips on how you can accessorize with headgear properly.

While it seems that in many areas the popularity of headgear tends to wax and wane, in some parts of the world and some social circles they have always remained an important part of a person's outfit. In upper class British society, for example, it is very common for women to wear fancy headgear (often known as fascinators) to weddings and certain sporting events. It is not uncommon for women and men to spend hundreds of dollars on their headgear choices.

One thing to consider is how formal your outfit will be. If you are getting very dressed up, you will need to choose a piece that is equally fancy. For men, this may mean a bowler, a top hat or (depending on your surroundings) a well-made Stetson or other western style topper. For women, there are a range of different toppers that can be paired with a very formal outfit.

Some models are more functional than decorative. If you are going to be in a place with warm, sunny weather, you may want to consider a style that has a wide brim. Options that are woven from grass or straw can be light and airy and keep you from getting overheated.

If you will be participating in a sport or activity, you may want to look for something that will help improve your performance. The right headgear can help pull heat and moisture away from your head. A ball cap can be a great choice as it will shade your eyes and help you see more easily and more clearly. It can also be a great accessory if you are attending a sporting event or if you are wearing an outfit that has an athletic theme to it.

You should also consider the time of year when you are adding a cap or other topper to your outfit. Some are lined or made from heavier material that will work better in cooler weather. The same option may not look as good in warmer weather.

Just remember to look for options that are well made as some of these can be quite expensive and you will want to make sure that your investment will last. It is also important to find out how to look after your choice properly so that it will look as good as possible for as long as possible.

Although it can be a great idea to try various styles on you may have better luck if you check online. Just make sure you read reviews before you buy to make sure that you are dealing with a reputable company so that you know you are getting a quality fashion accessory.
