Of Hats, Masks and Style


Style is a message of who you are. It is in how you dress, how you talk, how you carry yourself. A lot of it is on your face. And yes, wearing a mask makes your message muffled. Literally!


Well, luckily someone created hats! And luckily it’s November - perfect time to wear this wonderful and versatile accessory! A person wearing a mask is well protected. A person wearing a hat and a mask can be strong, surprising, adventurous, mysterious, fun and.. yes, well-protected too.

A hat is like the title to your message, written in bold letters.


Excited to get a hat? Hats can be pricey and often cannot be returned, so here are 4 simple questions to making a good choice:


1. Begin with the Message.

Remember, hat is like a catchy title to your message. Focus on how you want to feel and what you want others to see. Your message can be about adventure, about being cosy, about expressed masculinity or intriguing feminine energy. Whatever the message- title it well!


2. Determine the outfit you’ll wear it with.

Hats like shoes need to be appropriate for the occasion and the outfit. A hat that suits everything in your wardrobe may not suit anything really well.


3. Find balance in the shape.

A hat shouldbalance your figure, head-shape and your outfit. Gene rally, the crown width should be at least the same width as your face. And the brim needs to balance your figure.


4. Color is king.


If you don’t have full color analysis done, spend time to find out if you are a cool or warm color person. As a simple rule - if your skin has golden undertone, warm colors will suite you well. If you look great in crispy white - you likely prefer cool colors.


One last advice? Have fun and choose your hat with enthusiasm! If you feel the energy wearing it, you will radiate that energy, mask or no mask regardless.
