How to Wear a Trilby

Trilbies used to be all about the boys. They were the preserve of private investigators in movies, and gentlemen on the street. However, thanks to stars like Cameron Diaz and others, who love this stylish hat, it's now perfectly acceptable for girls to sport them too. Here are a few ideas on how to pull it off. First, consider color. A white, grey or black trilby will go with everything, but one in a startling color, like pink, or a fabric like denim will add instant interest to your outfit. Then there's the outfit. Use a trilby to add a boho touch to a long, seventies style maxi dress ensemble, or enhance the masculine edge of a sharp white suit (cleavage baring blouse essential for feminine appeal.) Wear your trilby with attitude, and at a slight angle, and you can turn it into your hottest accessory, no matter what the outfit!
