From beanies to bowlers to berets, hats aren't just to keep your head warm. This fall, hats are chic, essential accessories in every woman's wardrobe. If you've never been a hat person, now's the perfect season to change. When shopping for a hat, try it on and look in the mirror from all angles to find the best style and fit for you. Try one of these trendy hat styles this fall.
1 Knit cap
At the Nicole Miller show at Fall 2010 New York Fashion Week, every
runway model was wearing a basic black wool knit cap. And though you
might not be willing to wear a beanie with your business suit or
cocktail dress, you can take some inspiration from the show. Knit caps
are easy to wear and affordable (you can pick one up from Old Navy or
Gap for about $5). They're a terrific way to keep your head warm and
can hide frizzy, flyaway hair. Perfect for casual wear, a knit hat goes
great with your favorite jeans and sweater this fall.
2 Colorful cloche
The cloche is a bell-shaped, fitted hat that was originally popular in
the 20s but has re-emerged in recent years as a popular choice for
women. For fall, look for cloches in bold colors and soft fabrics. The
cloche is often accented with ribbons, feathers, crystals and other
feminine embellishments. Wear it casually or or as a nice complement to
more dressy attire.
