Straw cowgirl hats are a fashion staple every year, transcending seasons. They look great in the summer, with jean cut-offs at a weekend festival or for fall, worn snuggled against a bonfire or wrapped in woolen blankets. Worn with long flowing skirts for a romantic bohemian look or to add a casual touch to an elegant LBD (little black dress), the straw cowgirl hat is the bright and contemporary choice this summer.
Here are some ideas to make the most of the straw cowgirl hat.
Spring: Fresh and Floral
Spring is the best time to wear your straw cowgirl hat. It is a good time to wear light and airy clothes, such as a floral dress with a denim jacket and ankle boots. Here are some tips.
Floral dresses: Match a flirty floral dress to your hat. Straw’s natural texture looks great with floral patterns, for an unfussy, boho feel.
Denim Jackets: Light denim jacket adds a layer of warmth without missing out on the style, good for you to enjoy the ultra-mild spring.
Ankle Boots: Put on some ankle boots. These are a late ‘80s addition to the ‘I grew up on a ranch’ look, and they add just the right touch of grit to the straw cowgirl hat.
Summer: Cool and Casual
Summer is the time when your straw cowgirl hat can really strut its stuff. It adds a bit of color and excitement to your outfit, but, best of all, she can protect from harmful sun rays. How to do it:
Maxi dresses: Make sure its in a light fabric. The long length creates a sense of formality that contrasts with the informality of the hat, making it suitable for trips to the beach or summer festivals.
Shorts and Tank: This outfit is great for hot days. Wear some denim shorts with a little tank top.
Straw cowgirl hat: Wear this to the pool, too. Pair it with a sexy swimsuit and cover-up for a chic, sun-safe outfit.
Fall: Cozy and Chic
Fall is here, and just like the leaves, you can change your cowgirl hat style, too. Fall wardrobe is all about layering and adding in warm tones. Here’s how to transition your straw cowgirl hat out of summer:
Straw: If you are looking to dress up your straw hat, a plaid shirt might be the perfect match. Together, they will look like a classic, autumn-ready mix.
Sweater Dresses: Layer the knit on top of your summer dress (because nobody wants to lose that length this season), and look at how the two textures play together for depth.
Boots: cowgirl boots or high cowboy boots! Not only will they keep your legs warm, but they will also help maintain that cowgirl look.
Winter: Warm and Stylish
A straw cowgirl hat might seem too summery for your winter wardrobe, but with a few stylish tweaks, you will see that it can be a striking accessory come winter. Here’s how to pull it off.
Faux fur Coats: Faux fur coats go nicely and make you feel warm. The cuddly hair adds a hint of luxury, which goes nicely with the more rough and solid straw material.
Scarves: Wear one over your outfit to add another dimension – and warmth.
Dark Denim: Denim in a deep shade of blue contrasts with your hat for a wintry look.
Concluding Thoughts
When summer sets in, a straw cowgirl hat becomes the perfect complement to your summer wardrobe. However, it is actually a year-round statement piece that you can wear by playing with the outfits and matching them throughout the seasons. So, Cowgirl put on your straw hat and rock it all year long.
