Fedoras

Summer is here, and the ultra chic pair of sunglasses that you’re donning isn’t the only thing shielding you from the sun’s rays.  The “It” accessory of this summer season is a chic fedora!

It doesn’t surprise me that fedoras are trending right now. Hats in every shape, style and size are the ultimate add-on to any outfit this summer. You can turn the simplest outfit from boringly bland to oh-so-chic by simply donning a fedora. It’s really ingenuous actually.  A well-chosen hat can make a 180-degree difference on your outfit by adding a bit of drama to your look.

Katie Holmes is proof that sporting a casual outfit does not have to be boring. InStyle caught her on the beach in this blazer, tank and cut-off ensemble that she added some spice to by wearing a simple straw hat.

It’s called a bad hair day and every girl has them, unfortunately whether you’ve woken up with hair so alive even the greatest of lion tamers couldn’t handle it, gotten caught in the rain or lost a fight with the wind. Not only are fedoras super cute and chic, they’re also perfect for hiding unruly manes. StyleBistro caught Katie coming off a windy boat ride wearing a trendy open-knit sweater with wedges and a fedora.

Fedoras are not solely reserved for women this summer. Men are taking part in this trend as well. And if I might add, a man wearing a properly placed fedora looks very dapper.

StyleBistro also caught Tom Cruise wearing a matching fedora during his boat outing with Katie Holmes. I’d add that the hat heightens his woven/short outfit combo.

JustJared caught the Vampire Diaries star, Ian Somerhalder, at Coachella this April looking casually cool in the desert heat. His fedora adds extra style to his no-fuss tank and jeans outfit.
