If you know me, or if you’ve ever looked this blog, you may have noticed I don’t mention hats much. There’s a good reason for this: I don’t understand hats. It sounds silly, like how do you not understand an accessory that has been around since the dawn of man, but I really don’t. Head coverings completely baffle me – even scarves. I’m like what? Huh? How do you wrap this thing around my hair? How does it not slip off the hair? Why does this fedora/newsboy cap/floppy straw hat not look good on me? Is it my head? It is the shape? Is it my fat? Is it my hair? Is it the hat itself? What is it??
But hats are one of things I can’t help but reach for at Target. (And only Target for some reason.) I have yet to find a single hat that works on me. They either look ridiculous like my head is misshapen or the brim is too narrow for my ginormous forehead. (I don’t have a ginormous forehead either. The hat just makes it look so!)
I don’t know.
But just for you guys, I actually took photos of me in hats this past weekend.
I don't even know what kind of hat this is. I just like the neutral color.
I was trying to be Woo! Girl here, a la How I Met Your Mother.
You want to know the funny thing? I like the hat selection in the men’s side the most. Women’s hats are always so… patterned. I like patterns on my clothes, not my head!
What about you? What are your favorite hats to wear? What do you look for in a hat? Are you as hat-handicapped as I am?
