"Last week, I asked you gals, &amp;quot;Are you a hat person?&amp;quot; and a few of you admitted that, well, you weren&amp;#39;t quite sure! It turns out the hat issue leaves more than a few of us scratching our heads. So I turned to the fabulous milliner Eugenia Kim for some answers.\nPinterestFacebookEugenia&amp;#39;s rules are smart and very simple:\n\nChoose a hat that fits both your head (duh) and your personal style. If you&amp;#39;re a skinny-jeans-neon-shoes-studded-belt-Wayfarers-wearing hipster, chances are you&amp;#39;re not going to want to wear a wide-brim floppy velvet hat. Like anything else, a hat should be an expression of who you are, not who celebrities or magazines or anyone else thinks you should be.\n\n\nFedoras are universally flattering. If you have no idea where to start, this is a good place! The fedora comes in materials that work in all seasons (straw for summer, tweed for winter, anything in between) and for all face sizes and shapes. Simon Doonan, the creative director of Barneys New York, once told me the same thing about cowboy hats--that they work on every woman. Seriously.\n\n\nIf you&amp;#39;ve got a small or narrow face, choose a short brim. You want a hat to draw attention to your pretty face, not overwhelm or obscure it. If your face is especially tiny (like mine!), skip the brim entirely and go for a knit beret or a cloche.\n\n\nMind the bill of your hat. A driver or newsboy cap can look sophisticated if the bill &amp;quot;is aerodynamic, like ours,&amp;quot; Eugenia says. &amp;quot;Wide bills just wind up looking like a duck.&amp;quot;\n\nA few of you also asked about the wheres and whens of wearing hats, and I&amp;#39;ve got a few simple rules for that, as well: Hats are not appropriate for work, unless your office is extremely casual/fashion forward. If you want your hat to be part of your outfit, wear that outfit somewhere hats are acceptable--Sunday brunch, to the airport, out shopping, over to a friend&amp;#39;s house. Think about it the way you think about a wool winter scarf. They can be really cute with a blazer and totally acceptable indoors, but you wouldn&amp;#39;t sit down to a board meeting with one on, would you?\nVisit Eugenia&amp;#39;s website now to find out more about her and her passion for hats (true story: her career got started because of a bad haircut!) and then shop some of my favorite hats:\nSo tell me gals, will you try a hat out this spring? Do any of Eugenia&amp;#39;s rules make you more willing to take on this trend? And what&amp;#39;s your favorite way to wear a hat?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
