Hats

cahabo · Kate Spade

I don't wear hats. I don't think they look good on me. I've never worn them, so maybe it's just that I'm not used to them. There are a lot of hats I've seen that I think look cute and look great on people though.

monica · Kenneth Cole

i have lots - maybe too many

- a few ivy kangol caps that i wear in the summer - i think the style is called ventair - i usually rock it w/ a really casual outfit

- tweed ivy - wear in the fall/winter w/ sweaters and scarves

- fedora - this is my fun hat - i usually wear it at night

- knit scull caps - wear in the winter w/ my layered look

- beret - w/ my long ladylike coats

- military inspired cap in black wool - i usually wear w/ my thermals

ha - i'm sure that you weren't asking for anything that detailed :)

i usually wear hats w/ certain outfits (as you can see above) but i definitely think that they add a lot to a blah outfit. i find most of them at h&m, urban, street vendors, etc.

I think I look awful in most hats (I have a small head), but on other people I think they are really cute. Lilykind has worn some in her TS posts and they always look great on her.

Kelly · Hermes

I love the idea of hats. I wish we still lived in an age where they were everyday wear. However, my hair has serious volume problems, and I look awful without volume. So hats don't work for me - I look bad when the hats cram all my hair flat down on my head, and when I take the hats off I've lost any styling I worked so hard to get. So I don't wear them.

I love hats, but they're hard for me to wear because I have a small head, and I also can't wear them to work. I have one from Gap that I looooove. It's this style but in a knitted material:

I wear it with everything I possibly can.

I also have this one; My family hates it, but I like it.

My sister also has one like this that is adorable. She wears it with dressier stuff:

Grace · Dooney & Bourke

I really like hats but I don't wear any. Two reasons: I have a small head and I can never find one that fits right and I have short hair and I'm not sure that it looks right with no hair showing.

squishy · Coach

i really love hats, but i have an obscenely oversized noggin (doesn't help that i have enough hair for two people) and can't fit in most stuff. i have a few baseball caps i adore, though.

shopgirl82 · Chanel

i bought a cute one from anthro that i can't stop wearing. it's kinda plaid. pink/green/brown in this shape. i can't find a pic of it now...

I like them in theory. I really like the eugenia kim hat that is posted on the front of stylediary right now, but I'm not sure I like it as much as it costs on shopbop!

Farrah · Marc Jacobs

I love hats, but don't buy as many as I would like to because I love my hair too. In college I was in a Tennessee Williams play called Summer and Smoke; I wore the most beautiful hats and gloves with my costumes. Ahhh, I miss getting dressed up in fun period clothing.

I think I personally own maybe TWO or three hats, and I don't wear them that often. I love how they look on other folks, but me - not so much.

I do get compliments when I do wear one, so maybe I'll try them out more often. Maybe.

Suasoria · Chanel

I like hats, but I have a big ethnic nose so I don't usually wear baseball caps or other hats with bills. It could be my imagination, but these seem to draw attention to the schnozz.

I wear symmetrical hats like berets and cloches, and hats with brims that are the same width all around, like a bowler in the winter or a couple of straw hats in the summer.

Head size isn't usually the issue, the problem is that manufacturers don't scale every part down like they should for smaller sizes.
