Do you wear floppy hats or sassy fedoras during the summer? I used to be terrified of hats but ever since last summer, I embraced them and now I can't get enough of them. Last week I went to buy a new one with the intention to walk out of the store with a floppy wide brim beauty, but I ended up with a really great Panama. How? Well the lady in the shop told me a little secret to buying hats. She said: "Never assume which hat you will end up with. Try them all and the one that feels the most you is the winner".
Actually, it felt very freeing to hear that since none of the wide brim hats looked how I imagined, but as soon as she handed me the Panama hat, I knew it was for me.
Here are a few different styles that might just be perfect for you.
1. Fedora.
2. Woven Fedora.
3. Panama hat.
4. Wide brim hat.
5. Trilby hat.
Have you ever just gone to a hat shop and let the hat choose you? Which one tickles your fancy? xo

Hats don't suit me but it's maybe because I choose the wrong style. You made me very happy with this post Diana. Jill

What a great collection of hats! Love 'em all X
I'm a huge fan of the floppy hats for summer...My problem is the color. I like plain and every where I go the hats have tassels & jewels & too much!! Finding a lovely, natural woven hat is tough!
I have a cute red one from Ted Baker that Jorge bought me at Heathrow on the way to New York last autumn, but I haven't worn it in ages. Now I'm inspired to pull it out of the closet!
I love summer hats. they are the best, and definitely my favorite. so many cute looks!
Chic on the Cheap
I have bespoke hats for the various seasons.
I used to be afraid of hats too and thought I looked terrible in them, but the combination of needing some sun protection and finding some ones that looked cute on change my mind. I picked up a panama hat last summer. Hat twins! :) I love it. Great tips. xo, Katie
It would look great on you, Jillian:)
