{what to wear} the floppy fedora

fedora
Top Row: {from left to right}: Sole Society Outback Wide Brim Hat $49.95 / Urban Outfitters Felt Floppy Hat $49
Center Row: Sole Society Wool Panama Hat $49.95
Bottom Row: Eugenia Kim Genie Florence Fedora $80 / Christys' Hats Kearny Floppy Hat $50


I've been in the throes of a love affair with floppy fedoras since Gossip Girl Season One when the perfectly undone Serena van der Woodsen {aka Blake Lively} paired an oversized burgundy one alongside a vintage ensemble the likes of which would make Almost Famous' Penny Lane swoon.

They're the simplest way to add a pop of effortless bohemia to your look du jour; and feel as essential to the fall season as the arrival of Pumpkin Spice Lattes at Starbucks and the changing colors of the autumn leaves.

I'm currently crushing on the Sole Society pieces for their affordable price points and low-key, easy breezy aesthetics {pair either with just about anything in your closet and you'll instantly feel like a rock star}. The oversized brims of the Urban Outfitters and Christys' Hats offerings are ideal for channeling that 1969 summer of love vibe {that I, for one, will forever dig}. And the Eugenia Kim? That peacock color is impossible to ignore, and will look so pretty styled with the rich plums, navies, caramels, and oxbloods of autumn.


Will you be rocking a floppy fedora this season?

Okay you are going to laugh, but I am DYING for one of these hats! They remind me of the Fourth Doctor from Doctor Who. I am determined to make Doctor Who chic and this post is very inspiring!

I need one for the autumn. I'm thinking a plum coloured one - this is one trend I'm dying to try out.

Adorable hats! I should get into wearing those again, too - though I feel they don't suit me so well :D
