Beauty of Hats

Normally I'm not the hat wearing type, but I can't resist the beauty of these minimalistic and sculptural hats by Rike Feurstein Berlin. Her unique look references classic shapes from the 40s and 60s, which adds a new twist to elegant class and retro appeal. The new summer collection is also worth checking out. Hmm...maybe I could become a hat person? Yet, these are so pretty I might be tempted to keep them safely displayed on a dresser!

Are you a hat wearer? Got a favorite style?

i don't wear hats but that's not because i don't love them, i do i do! It's just that i never seem to have time to wear one for long enough...if this makes sense...

I wish, I wish I looked relatively decent in hats. I think it's the shape of my head or something... but I always look dumb. I mean, that's really it, I look ridiculous in hats. BUT, if I could these fabulous hats would be the bomb! I love the smooth lines and bright colors!

That top hat is really pretty. I mean, the hat up at top, not a "top hat". Oh boy. I wear baseball hats when my hair's not looking cute. And I wear hats in the winter. I also have a beret I wear on occasion.

I don't wear hats - my head's too big and I'm tall and stick thin, I'd look ridiculous!
I do love hats though and these are stunning..:)

I can't wear hats because I have an abnormally large head. If you do not have an abnormally large head, I think you should become a hat person!


I love the firs tone.

Not a hat wearer. But sometimes, I just have to cut lose and do it. My hubby loves me in hats. I guess I should do it more.

These are so cute and fun.

Cindy said...

i love the hats and the strong colors. i'm burnt out from wearing hats non-stop as a kid. i'm hat hair averse, now ;).

Beautious!! I bought a peach of a hat the other week and it has yet to make its debut on my head (I couldn't resist it)...I love hats, but on everyone else but me!

Angela said...

Leigh said...

Julie @ Belle Maison said...

i've never been a hat person but i'd re-consider after viewing these lovelies!

Chris said...

I LOVE hats, but 90% of them look totally dorky on me. The ones I can wear, I really cherish. And I admire those who can wear whatever hat they want and look wonderful. I really like these though, especially that black one.

LOVE!LOVE!LOVE!
I love hats, and go through phases where i wear them all the time and then again not so often. Must have inherited it from my grandmother,she was a hatdesigner.
Nr3 is my fave in your collection, am looking for a summer trilby around here at the moment... off to look at the new summer collection now for inspiration :)

Sarah Von Bargen said...

That top one is fantastic! And it looks like it might even be big enough to fit my giant dinosaur-esqe head!

kat said...

Michelle Parks McCourt said...

Now that first hat is super cool..I wonder why people dont wear hats here...its super duper hot!!

*L said...

I'm not a hat wearer, but I'd like to be. Houston, Texas doesn't afford much weather to don hats. The ones you posted are sexy!

Victoria said...

I love hats, (too bad I look so horrible in them!) These are true beauties!

Robin said...

I love hats. I collect vintage hats. I love wearing enormous black hats (think Audry Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffanys), I'll wear a cloche on bad-hair days, and my very favorite is my leopard-skin pillbox hat ( that's a Bob Dylan song title, and I make new friends all the time when they recognize the joke).

Needless to say, my boys are often embarassed to be seen with me in public.

get zapped said...

I love hats, too! The colors and shapes are so cool. And they may even keep one warm. Thanks!

georgia b. said...

may i please have the black, blue and gold?? it is stunning.

i can't pick a favorite hat style, for i adore them all!

MinervaO said...

Cloche hats are pretty universally flattering. They even look good on my big ol' head.

You should check out http://www.pinkhammillinery.com/. Absolutely gorgeous hats.

Courtney said...

That top hat is fabulous! I love hats, but I only actually wear them sometimes.

Banana-head Pancake said...
