Oversized Fedora & Fun Fashion Friday Link Up!

December 3, 2015

In today’s look, I took a very simple outfit (sweater, jeans, booties) and automatically upped the style quotient by adding an oversized fedora.

I have a fedora in black and now burgundy too.  It’s great for covering bad hair, dirty hair, grey roots … you name it! And hey, it actually keeps my head warm too.

Here’s a few other dolls rocking the oversized fedora trend ….

    I'm not a hat person, but when you said "cover up gray hair" .. I thought – Oh, ya, I'm gonna get me a hat!

    Also love your wedge boots 🙂

A burgundy fedora…and now that I see how chic it looks with your neutral-toned sweater, jeans, and booties combo, I really REALLY want one of my own!! P.S. That delicious tricolour bag gets my attention every time, too!! XOXO

    I LOVE that ladies hats are making a comeback (I hope!) other than at church. That is one of the once commonplace fashions that never should have died. Your hat is gorgeous…and so are those wedge boots! Work it! Happy Friday!

  • Reply Tall girl December 7, 2015 at 1:45 pm

    I wear hats all year around, but more so in winter to keep my head warm and the rain off my hair, and love how the hat brings some pizzazz to an outfit. Hat hair is not so great, however. 😉 Thanks for hosting the linkup!

    What a fabulous hat! I didn't have the confidence to wear hats until quite recently but they can totally transform an outfit!
