No need to panic, the colder weather can be an ally…an ally to accessorize for! Of course, we’re talking about the ever-so-chic FUR HAT! A fur hat is not just an accessory, it is a statement piece in the making–a great sartorial ally.

These past few seasons we have grown accustomed to seeing young beauties in fox trapper hats(the sky is the limit when it comes to sizes, colors and proportions). Chic and sporty and so very warm, these fashionable fur hats work well for both men and women.

But, there is another look we’re starting to see around hot spots and chic parties. It’s the pillbox hat version, that “From Russia with Love” hat type that is as historical and romantic as it is chic and classic. Jacqueline Kennedy, thanks to Halston, has done more for the beatification of the shape as a fashion icon. This hat is definitely much dressier and somewhat more mature in look. Then again, it only takes a few pretty young things to be chronicled in the magazines to change public opinion.
