Fedoras have that undeniably old school vibe about them. No matter what outfit you’re wearing, a fedora conjures up memories of Marlon Brando, Frank Sinatra and the rest of the Rat Pack. The new school crowd (i.e. our generation) have taken the classic hat to new heights. Women now don fedoras along with their Gucci clutches, Tiffany earrings and Manolos. The women above have this look down to a science and if you need more inspiration check out Erykah and this other Rihanna pic.

To mix it up, add a different headscarf around the brim to create the illusion of a completely new hat. You could also add brooches, gems and dare I say it, feathers (?!) to personalize it. If you’re worried about looking too pretentious in a fedora don’t worry, confidence is key! Keep your head up and strut with style – you know you’ve got it ;)
