With the royal nuptials turning trendy heads around the world, hats are making their lovely way back into fashion. Lots of style and splash make the hats of the new millennium fun to wear. Wear any one of these hats and feel beautiful.
Artsy Statements
Check out vintage and crafty purveyors of millenary delights. Etsy has some great little finds that will have you wishing you had a royal wedding to go to. Look for grand fluffs of lace or netting embellished with crystals or faux jewels.
Floral Finery
Hats aren’t embellished with flowers anymore. Today’s hat is a flower; a corsage for your hair. Large dangling bunches of tropical flowers in hot pink, coral, or red hold a chignon in place beautifully. Or try a fascinator with a large ribbon or fabric flower to provide balance; just be sure the colors are next to each other on the color wheel.
Straw Hat Re-Invented
Think of a straw hat on a small scale and you can envision how this demure hat has changed. Lovely in fresh but understated spring colors, this hat sits perched atop your head, not hanging over it. The big change is in the design elements. Gone are sweet strings of flowers and thread and dangling ribbons. Straw hats sport organic and innovative accessories that draw the eye up. Check out ASOS for a lovely shell pink chapeau.
Hats demand lovely locks to look their best. Guarantee perfect hair by remembering the following steps:
- Use an anti flake, high on shine shampoo and conditioner. Don’t overdue the shine products, though. A nice, healthy head of hair is what you are shooting for, not a shining lake of locks.
- The cut should be fresh and suit your facial structure. Wearing your hair up? Control flyaways.
- Make sure color is fresh. If you haven’t been to the colorist lately, make an appointment and freshen up dull hair color.
Now put on your hat and turn some heads.
