A hat a day keeps the shower away

hats are gr8- a short story

Here is the thing, I need a new hat. And hats are great, especially when you have fine hair and for me, I feel like my hair is MEH unless it is freshly showered. So it’s either going up or it’s going in a hat.

I will be sharing some hat options (both vintage/used and not) today and it will be fun!! I think hats are such a great way to add some oooomph and fun to an otherwise everyday outfit. It does take some trial and error finding the right hat for your head shape so it’s always best to try it on if you can. Unless you are one of those people that looks great in every hat which in that case, you biotch.

I have a bigger head (huuuge brain) so it’s a bit harder for me to find a hat that I like the fit of. Which is why I have been wearing THIS hat that I purchased from eBay for $12 every day of my life as seen below.

If you’re gonna buy a yankees or “LA” hat (per above pink collage), I would highly suggest getting it vintage or used as it will look cooler/better.

I do have an Adidas one I wear time to time, a Cherry LA one which is great but the shape is more trucker hat. The options are endless! I’ll share two tiers of options below- brand spankin new and vintage/used.

Eliou $60, Peace & Quiet $55, Ralph Lauren black $50, Sky High yellow $30, Ralph Lauren Navy $50, J. Crew baseball hat $34, Ralph Lauren red $50, Brut Paris $58, Frame x Ritz Paris $148, Ralph Lauren cream $58, Assembly New York green $58, Idea London $60, Carhartt heart $29, Ralph Lauren blue $50, Online Ceramics $40

The Sky High hat is currently in my cart and I already own the Idea London hat. I love the color options that Ralph Lauren offers, will share a few used/vintage versions below. Also, Online Ceramics has GREAT drops, was so sad to miss out on this Alice Coltrane one. They sell out quick.

Here are are vintage/used/RealReal options:

Ralph Lauren NY green $90, Online Ceramics Maryland $65, Yankees navy $18.95, Super Model yellow $56, Polo Sport black $75, Online Ceramics Cactus Utopia $110, Vintage Adidas Soccer black $40, Yankees white $6, Palm Angels $105, Ralph Lauren Kids $26, Bally red $105, Yankees tan $22, Online Ceramics ladybug $67, Online Ceramics x North Face $120, Filson black $60

This little juice hat is cute and if you want a plain tan hat, there is a Frankie Shop one for $60 on The RealReal.

Also, your local museum probably has some good ones. Concert merch hats are great. Book club hats. And of course, your local vintage/thrift stores!

Thanks for reading as always.
