After a year of being stuck indoors, fashionistas are itching to get out and flaunt their lockdown purchases. And with the weather getting warmer, we expect to see many heads topped with stylish and bold hair accessories.

If you feel as though your hat collection is in dire need of an upgrade, then look no further...we’ve got you covered.

The Bucket

We are now seeing the classic ‘bucket hat’ return but with more playful textures and fabrics. From denim to canvas, with extended brims and even frayed edges this go-to summer topper will certainly be a popular choice this year.

The Straw Hat

The straw hat will always remain a fan favourite - a chic accessory that comes in all shapes and sizes. For an on-the-go look, why not try out a short brimmed ‘prairie style’ with a relaxed fit? Or if you’re a sun lover but conscious of skin care, maybe opt for a more elongated shape that offers you maximum protection.

The Wide Brim

Wide brims are great for when you’re on the go and the best way to elevate any outfit. Whether it’s a slightly hungover Sunday brunch or an afternoon shopping trip, this cult-classic will always be your best friend.

The Graphic Scarf

Even though it’s not quite a hat, the hair scarf is certainly on trend. From stylish retro prints to eye-popping colours, these silky scarfs are adding new dimensions to everyone’s outfits. Paired with a pair of sunglasses, this makes for the ultimate chic look.

The Beret

Now, it’s not quite a summer hat but it’ll always have a place in our hearts. The beret is yet another iconic example of French fashion at its absolute finest. And this year, we are seeing bold, monochrome styles making their debut.

We at Katherine Elizabeth are always available to talk hats. So now the doors to our flagship store at the Oxo Tower are open for business, why not pop in for a browse and a natter. We’ve missed you!
