In recent years, hats have become a lesser worn accessory and have taken back seat to other items. But we think that the hat is coming back into fashion and there’s a style for every occasion.

As well as being practical this time of year, hats are also fun and can change an outfit from being good to being great! Here’s our low-down on how to add a hat to your outfit and what style of hat to wear when;

The woolly hat has to be the favourite this time of year but instead of going with a standard woolly hat, try a baggy

Baggy Beanie Hat

beanie. These are oversized knitted hats which slouch slightly off the back of the head. They give a more casual/cool look but can be worn dressed up too for effortlessly stylish appeal.

Trilbies are great for adding a funky twist to an ensemble but they must be combined with the right outfit to avoid the fancy dress look. Trilbies are best teamed with smart casuals such as slim fitting jeans and tailored tops/jackets.

The beret will add a little Parisienne chic to an outfit. Try a bright red or blue beret to add a punch of colour to a look.

Cowboy hats should be restricted to hen parties only, full stop.

The baseball cap in theory, should be left to the under 20’s unless it is worn in an appropriate place such as when leaving/going to the gym or other sporting event.

Trend alert for spring, flat caps. They may be associated primarily with the farmers but, the flat cap is slowly but surely creeping its way into the style stakes! They look great teamed with a classic trench and jeans. Ooh-arrr!

And finally the party hat, an absolute must have this season!! (available in most Christmas crackers!)
