I like the cloche/bucket shape, though I also do a less-structured wide brim in the summer. For cold weather when a brimmed wool hat won't do, I wear what I think Canadians call a tuques. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best/page/2#post-1085883 Fri, 15 Nov 2013 04:58:02 +0000 rachylou 1085883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do them all.

That's how big my head is.</p> <p>Tried on a few hats last week, between a wax gone wrong and dinner with bf. It was a hat shop that makes most of their own wares, and I was surprised at which styles worked on me. Plenty of them were big enough, too!</p> <p>Does anyone regularly wear structured/felt hats? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best/page/2#post-1085671 Fri, 15 Nov 2013 01:32:29 +0000 karymk 1085671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I look like deuce in baseball caps too, Alaskagirl.

Look at you all in your fab hats! </p> <p>The Garnet Hill cashmere beanie is my fave for soft, light, warm non-hair-crushing style.

That's it though, unfortunately. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best/page/2#post-1085181 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 18:39:34 +0000 Suz 1085181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Big head, high forehead, hard to fit at times. But I love cloche hats, newsboys, some tuques/ slouchy beanies, the kind of hat with ear flaps...pretty much anything except a baseball cap (looks awful) or fedora (love -- but can't find one that looks good on me...so far.)&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best/page/2#post-1085148 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 18:15:37 +0000 L'Abeille 1085148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love hats. They must have wide brims to fit my big features and wide shoulders: if I take a hat with a mid-size brim and put it on my head, the brim magically shrinks to an inch wide. So, fedoras and floppy hats, mostly. I can get away with a beret sometimes, if it is big and floppy and I can tuck in all my back hair, otherwise no.</p> <p>My hat style has been compromised by glasses and greying hair, which narrow the options/change what used to work; and by fewer opportunities to wear one, between singing in the church choir (I was always known for having a hat on in church, sadly no more) and by the darn sunroof in my car which makes the ceiling too low to drive comfortably wearing one.</p> <p>I often shop the mens dept to get hats to fit my big head. DD on the other hand at age 28 found a perfect fit in the toddler dept! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best/page/2#post-1085129 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 18:02:48 +0000 cciele 1085129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, MaryK! :)</p> <p>I also do well with hats of all different sorts. But my favorites are newsboy caps by far. Followed by the fedora. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best/page/2#post-1085087 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 17:35:14 +0000 deb 1085087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can wear all hats but I do not care for baseball caps. Even though I get many compliments when I am wearing one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best/page/2#post-1085073 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 17:28:59 +0000 bj1111 1085073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For sun? One of those wide brimmed doctor recommended hats. </p> <p>For fashion, none.</p> <p>For warmth, the hood on my down parka. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best/page/2#post-1085068 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 17:24:23 +0000 Alexandra 1085068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a very small round head so my best hats are a cloche and a turban-style hat (good ear coverage), and a medium-brimmed round-crown hat (little to no ear coverage). Minimal embellishment, tone-on-tone only, in all cases. Nothing floppy, the brim must hold its shape. Mine always come from a specialty shop because of the small size of my head (one-size-fits-all is huge on me).</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best/page/2#post-1085050 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 17:06:01 +0000 milehighstyle (Linda) 1085050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was never a hat person until about a year ago - now I can't get enough.&nbsp; I think when I had longer (chin length) hair the thickness and volume were just too much and hats wouldn't stay on.&nbsp; Now that I started wearing my hair very&nbsp;short they really work for me.&nbsp;They also help preserve my hair color. &nbsp;Fedora, cloche, cowboy, porkpie, and a floppy boho are in my rotation.&nbsp; I have baseball caps for&nbsp;dog walking&nbsp;but don't feel that those&nbsp;look as good on me as the others.&nbsp; Like others, my face shape benefits from some height. I also wear knit beenies and trapper hats in cold weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best/page/2#post-1085022 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 16:47:32 +0000 Marmee 1085022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like a snug beanie best, but most beanies are slouchy these days. &nbsp;I learned a trick where you tuck the middle of the back of the hat under the back band, and it snugs things up!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best/page/2#post-1085018 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 16:43:19 +0000 rae 1085018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, high five to Team Big Head!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best#post-1085012 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 16:39:04 +0000 Elizabeth P 1085012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL MaryK.</p> <p>I'm not a big hat person either, but I wish I was.&nbsp; I really struggle to like them on me, so as a result I rarely look.&nbsp; I have my fleece tuke, that's about it.&nbsp; Sounds like I need to investigate slouchy beanies... I need something that looks good, and that is warm, for our winters!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best#post-1085004 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 16:33:11 +0000 carambola 1085004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Waving at others with a big head and high forehead.

In colder weather knit wool or more shaped cloches are my go-tos.&nbsp;</p> <p>Because of that I have a fair amount of photos of me in hats -- WHERE ARE THE OTHERS'?! ;)</p> <p>I have to say I&nbsp;look pretty awesome in certain styles and downright horrendous in others, ha.&nbsp;So I don't stray too far from cloche, bucket-y, and styles that cover my forehead and let me add a scarf to mix things up...though I keep trying! These shapes also work well with my general style&nbsp;preferences.</p> <p>The last few years I've stuck to neutral shades for max versatility, but I'm thinking I can justify a colored hat for winter. Still thinking about a deep green one&nbsp;I passed up 2 years ago! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best#post-1084920 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 15:34:27 +0000 annagybe 1084920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love hats &amp; wear hats of all different styles. Newsboy, fedora, beanie, shearling Russian style with ear flaps, aviator shearling, big brimmed floppy hats &amp; baseball. I just have to find them large enough to fit my big noggin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best#post-1084898 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 15:16:32 +0000 Elly 1084898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love hats, both currently and when I had a pixie. I always leave some bits fairly long around my temples when my hair is short, and if you razor them the curl a bit and keep it looking feminine. I have problems finding hats small enough, but that doesn't mean I've given up. I have a wool cloche, I love beanies (but need to replace my current nice wool one since it is in shreds), and cowboy hat, plus several baseball caps. I am&nbsp; looking for an affordable straw fedora or panama for the summer. I find hats look best with short hair, a bob which adds thickness to my hair, or a ponytail, otherwise they spread my hair around and make it look thin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best#post-1084844 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 14:49:13 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1084844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like Zap, none. I look positively horrendous in a hat. With my short hair once a hat is on, I look completely bald. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best#post-1084819 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 14:34:38 +0000 Anonymous 1084819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>None </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best#post-1084810 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 14:27:39 +0000 Thistle 1084810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A warm one!&nbsp; With ties so the wind doesn't blow it off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-hat-suits-you-best#post-1084790 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 14:00:40 +0000 Claudia 1084790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Garnet Hill's slouchy cashmere beanies work best on me I think: don't mess up my hair and give me hat head, just enough&nbsp;slightly oversized and slouchy but not smurf or snowboarder long which I find cute on others but too juvenile on me. </p>
