Fashion Focus – 5 Ways To Wear A Hat

I have been wanting to start this feature for a while now but just haven’t had the time. I have finally got myself organised though thank goodness so today is the first in my Fashion Focus series. Each week I will look at a key piece in my wardrobe and show you different ways to wear it. It may be an accessory, an item of clothing or a pair of shoes- something key that can be styled various ways.

This week my focus is my new hat! I bought it last week on a whim after wanting to buy one for absolutely ages! I love hats and used to wear them all of the time when I was a teenager. However, as I have aged my confidence has plummeted and I felt too self conscious to wear one- even on holiday!

I am finally getting my confidence back again though so here are 5 different outfits that you can add a hat as a finishing touch!

DUNGAREES

These are also a new purchase, I absolutely adore them! I feel like I am about 5 years old and they just make me happy. I added my hat and instantly felt like a cool mumma!

BLACK DRESS

I know a LBD is an essential item but this is a ‘long LBD’ haha! I love it and if I could wear it every day I could! I love the slit up the side as it makes me feel a bit sexy! Adding the hat gives it a daytime look but you could quite easily dress it up with a belt to create an evening look couldn’t you?

JEANS & SHIRT

I love a crisp white shirt, always makes me feel smart. I have only just started wearing jeans after years of being a leggings girl. I know jeans are meant to be a casual item but actually I always feel quite glam in them, especially teamed up with some heels!

LEATHER JACKET 

Oh how I adore this jacket! I wear it every chance I get and I love how the hat just dresses it down a bit. I will be featuring the jacket in the coming weeks as it is so versatile!

DRESS & BOOTS

I look like I am off to a festival don’t I? If only I wasn’t afraid of mud haha! I haven’t worn these cowboy boots for years now but they had an airing today and I forgot how much I love them!

So there we have it, 5 ways to wear a hat. I wear mine all of the time now and it has actually given me more confidence every time I wear it!

Do you ever wear a hat?
