With the onset of cold weather, light blouses were replaced by warm outerwear. Despite this, the fair half still wants to remain feminine.
A coat and a hat are those wardrobe items that have long and firmly entered our lives.
An ideal, win-win, warm option for cold autumn days. And correctly selected accessories will create a feminine, harmonious image.
We select according to style and style
The very first thing is a properly selected headdress. When choosing, follow the general rules for selecting according to your face type.
- Round face - berets, asymmetrical options that do not fit tightly to the head, hats with a visor are suitable.
- Knitted caps will smooth out a massive chin
- A deep-set high hat will help reduce a high forehead.
- An oval face will become more feminine and delicate with the help of a voluminous cap.
The girl’s height must be taken into account when selecting an accessory for her head.
Tall people are advised to pay attention to more massive, large hats. This advice also applies to overweight girls.
A few standard generally accepted rules
Owners of blond hair should give preference to dark colors, and girls with dark hair color should choose light or, conversely, bright shades of this accessory.
When creating an image with an autumn or winter coat, remember that the hat and scarf must be the same color.
Puffy, downy models do not need to be worn with voluminous knitted hats; this option is more suitable for wearing a sporty and classic fitted version.
The beret will be a universal solution for any style of coat.
Strict styles will be softened by bright hats with small pompoms, adding tenderness and playfulness to the image.
Classic ones look great with hats, but when you decide to create such a set, remember that brimmed hats are not suitable for everyone. Finding the perfect hat is difficult, but doable. You can choose your option.
Hat under a classic coat
Collarless coats have been in fashion for many years. Which headdress to wear with a classic look? In combination with a small hat, it will turn an everyday look into an elegant one; a beret will also serve as a winning option. A fur hat will soften the strict classic style, and together with a fur collar it will add completeness to the look.
Want a bold accent on your hair? Feel free to wear an unusual hat. It is important to remember that in this case no additional accessories are required so as not to create the impression of a Christmas tree.
Hat under an oversized coat
This universal style is firmly on the crest of fashion and has not lost its relevance for many years. Not surprisingly, its loose cut, which does not restrict movement, comfort and freedom of expression attracts women for many years to come.
Tips for choosing a headdress
First, it is important to understand how versatile it should be.
Perhaps you already have several hats and are just looking to add variety to your wardrobe. If so, then you immediately have more choice. However, if you need a headdress that will suit different styles, then I recommend a beanie hat. This model has long been liked by many fashionistas due to its versatility and ability to enhance the fashion level of the entire look. When purchasing, pay attention to its volume. Make sure that there is no tight fit on the head, it looks unsightly. Also, some will suit a larger knit, some with a collar, some without.
So, if you have large facial features and voluminous hair, then you should not choose a hat that is too small and fits tightly on your head. Choose a model that is more voluminous, and preferably with a turn-up. Women with smaller features should not choose a large hat and very large knitting; take a closer look at more neat beanie models.
Are you a lover of classic clothing style? Then wear a plain beret or hat with your coat. But just choose a current model so that the look with the coat does not look old and out of date. You can also add style to your look by wearing a leather or tweed cap.
Secondly, what should be taken into account when choosing a headdress for a coat is the color. The most universal colors are beige or milky, all shades of gray from light to almost black and black. The latter is the least universal, in my opinion, due to its contrast and sharpness. In general, of course, when deciding which hat to choose, always evaluate the image as a whole. If the set is made in soft pastel colors, then choose a suitable headdress, and vice versa. The main thing is that everything should be in harmony. A hat and a coat may not be in the same color scheme; be bold and play with a combination of two contrasting colors. This way you will definitely stand out and attract attention.
Below in the photo we will look at three looks to clearly show you which hat to wear with a coat. I suggest taking the two most universal colors of a women's coat, beige and gray. And, of course, I’ll show you a look with a blue coat, the most popular color of the coming season.
What hats go with coats
A hat is one of the best headwear for cold climates: it will protect your head in spring, autumn and winter from the chilly wind and frost. In order for a wardrobe item to look good, first of all, it is selected according to the type of face, but do not forget about fashion trends and the shape of the coat. Classic - knitted hat. Suitable for a classic coat, jacket, fur coat, both for autumn and winter. Thin, fine-knit beanie hats are more suitable for a youthful look. Choose medium-sized or thin knitted hats, as the fashion for overly large hats is gradually passing.
Hats with pompoms and ears look interesting. Knitted turban hats quickly came into fashion.
Thin cashmere products look very neat on the head. The choice in favor of them is made by women who wear clothes in a strict style. They look harmonious with both a fitted coat and straight-cut clothes.
Hats that keep their shape can visually lengthen the height and shape of the face. A cap is an elegant autumn option for a coat; naval-style caps are especially popular now.
Hats with small brims are back in trend, but wide-brimmed ones have lost their relevance for now. Surprisingly, the Panama hat is gaining popularity as an autumn headdress. A beret is a feminine attire for autumn for a classic and romantic look.
The balaclava is a trendy form of hat and scarf, but it doesn’t suit everyone. A good balaclava is slightly voluminous, similar to a scarf. Narrow, tight-fitting to the head, crushes the hairstyle and disrupts the balance between the shoulders and head. Therefore, it looks better with straight models and worse with oversized models.
A fur hat is relevant in the cold winter. Avoid an abundance of unnecessary details; the best choice is a laconic design.
A hat, beret or cap that matches the tone of the coat looks impeccable and stylish. The most suitable tones for any shade of green are gray, black, brown and burgundy. But you can try other modifications:
- a win-win option for a brightly colored or emerald coat would be raspberry or purple;
- light green goes well with pale pink and soft lilac;
- khaki will complement black, beige, brown.
It's not just the color that matters. We present to your attention the most successful combinations of styles.
Classic coat
A classic look in clothing is relevant always and everywhere, and most importantly it will suit any woman. An elegant hat combined with a classic-cut coat will turn its owner into a real lady. A classic coat will always look good with berets. This combination is suitable for both young ladies and mature ladies.
A formal coat will be decorated with a stylish fur hat, even better if the hat is complemented by a fur collar or boa made of the same fur. With a coat of a classic style, you can safely wear a bright and original hat with an interesting and unusual decoration, in this case the emphasis will be placed on the headdress.
Hooded
A coat with a hood can be combined with a hat with a visor. At the same time, it can be a tight-fitting knitted one, or a voluminous large knitted one, or it can be made in the form of a cap or baseball cap. A combination of a coat with a hood and a playful hat with ears will look interesting.
Stylists suggest trying a risky option for the most daring fashionistas - a coat with a hood combined with a Western-style hat.
Oversized
Practical and stylish outerwear allows fashionistas to fantasize and choose original combinations with coats:
- Men's cut hats with small brims are an extravagant look.
- Fur is a winning option for a warm coat.
- Caps and berets do not overload the image and go well together.
- The models are plain with small pom-poms.
An oversized coat should not be complemented with too flashy accessories; there is a risk of creating an inharmonious image.
Presence of fur collar
The presence of such an element implies wear in the winter season. Let's consider possible combinations:
- Mink. Massive accessories should be immediately excluded. It is better to choose thin knitwear with an insulated lining.
- Arctic fox. Stylists advise eliminating headwear altogether so as not to overload your appearance.
- Sable. It always looks impressive and goes chic with any hats.
- Astrakhan. It is better to choose bright stoles and scarves that can be tied on your head. A coat with fur and a hat will be a difficult combination in this case.
- With a black outfit decorated with a collar, you should tie a scarf.
- If the hood is decorated with fur trim, you should never wear thick, insulated materials on your head.
- The winter trend is a boa, which can be combined flirtatiously with hats.
How to choose accessories for a coat
Handbag
Follow the rule - a short and narrow top goes with large bags and vice versa, with a long, voluminous jacket or coat, the handbag should be small.
A universal choice is a bag or briefcase. Laconic, comfortable to wear as a handle, on a shoulder strap. The medium-sized bag will go with any jacket and coat.
Stylists say that everyone should have this option. The colors in the search for complementing the image depend on the shade of the outerwear; the elements should set off and at the same time complement each other. To the dark color of the top, you can add a bright red, green or coffee-colored bag.
An unusual combination of olive with orange, lavender with a purple addition. If you choose a variegated color, priority in choosing details is given to the dominant shade of the top.
Scarves
A small but no less important accessory. It will help to revive an overly strict look, and it can be worn on the head and neck. When looking for a scarf, consider your hair and skin color. A classic style coat requires stoles or scarves. Which scarf to wear with other coat styles? They are friends with both knitted thin scarves and knitted ones. The main rule is that scarves must be long and voluminous. Which scarf will suit different coat styles?
A plain top looks harmonious with patterned scarves.
The motley one is combined with a one-color scarf. The bright leopard print is still relevant today.
Belt
You can emphasize the waist in a coat without a belt with a wide black belt made of matte leather. It is self-sufficient and at the same time goes well with both a bag and a scarf. For an evening out, you can tie the belt with a belt with lace design; it will add elegance to the silhouette and add luxury to your appearance.
Boots
Short versions of the coat are worn with boots no lower than knee-high, length above the knee is allowed. The top, below the knee length, is recommended to be worn with ankle boots. Black leather boots with heels have remained favorites of fashion designers and women all over the world for many years. The next most popular look is gray faux suede boots complete with a sandy upper.
Gloves
The fashionable three-quarter sleeve is worn with long gloves, while the standard sleeve length is worn with short contrasting options. Fashionable color combinations of gloves - burgundy, steel, blood red brown. Remember, they must match the overall color scheme and do not need to be combined with shoes. Matching the same tone is only permissible with a clutch.
How to choose the right hat by color?
If you have already decided on a specific style of headdress, choosing it in color to match your women's fashionable coat will not be difficult at all. The easiest way to do this is to use a color wheel. According to it, you can choose models either in a contrasting color (for example, a blue hat under a coral coat), or close to the tone of your outerwear. However, remember: if you opt for a bright option, you will need to complement it with a matching scarf to make your look harmonious.
If you are choosing a product for a model of a combined color, for example, a green coat with a blue check, you should choose a headdress that matches one of the shades of the fabric (or at least close to it). The same goes for the scarf. Also, if you don’t know what kind of hat to wear with a coat of this color, look for a model with the same exact pattern as the one on it. Such combinations always look incredibly stylish.
Hats and scarves in neutral colors, for example, beige, gray, as well as brown and black, will be universal for various types of outerwear. Such models will look equally good with a red coat, and with outerwear of complex colors, having 2-3 contrasting tones, and even with products with ethnic patterns, fashionable this season. You can't go wrong with these types of hats.
Outfit with a blue coat and beret
Let's start with it. The image uses several trends at once: fashionable color and leather dress. By the way, the leather trend is entering its most active phase this spring, continuing the autumn-winter trend. There is now a huge variety of different models and colors in stores. And if you want to add something leather to your wardrobe, now is the time to go to the store. You can choose genuine or eco leather, your choice. But let's return to our image.
Blue color goes well with all brown colors. To add a little brightness to our set, I suggest wearing an orange beret. If you want more calm in this look, replace the orange color with beige or milky. The leather dress has a loose silhouette, so I suggest highlighting the waist with an accent belt. By the way, pay attention to belts; now stores also offer them to us in large quantities.
They are quite inexpensive, but they can greatly transform an outfit, and often it is the belt that completes the look. Let's add high boots with stable heels with a snake pattern, as well as a black bag with a modern shape. A scarf in beige and brown tones perfectly completes the resulting set.
Gray
A gray coat can be worn for walks, business meetings, to work or on a date. A gray coat of a simple cut without excess decorative details can adapt to any style of clothing.
This trendy cut coat will look good with a black voluminous hat with a large pompom. It will also go well with simple and voluminous gray knitted hats, leather baseball caps and hats with brims in black, crimson, dark green or gray in a tone darker than the coat.
Mustard
A mustard or red coat will look great with a beige hat or a black hat with a small brim. A cropped coat with a modern cut can be combined with a knitted hat with a regular or fur pompom.
A mustard coat goes well with a blue or green knitted hat or beanie.
Burgundy
Burgundy color is perceived as very solid and sophisticated. It is most often chosen by women in adulthood. In most cases, this color needs to be diluted with a lighter one. For example, a beige or gray hat will look good with a burgundy coat.
The combination of a burgundy coat with a black or dark blue hat will look very conservative, and a green hat can add notes of joy and optimism to the image.
Hats for green and pink coats
It is quite difficult to choose a hat to match a green coat - you need to take into account its shade, as well as your color type. Even if the color of the headdress is in harmony with the shade of the outerwear, the outfit will not decorate you if the color scheme does not suit you.
For girls with a “winter” or “summer” color type, cool shades of green are suitable - choose a raincoat of emerald, dark green, mint, or turquoise.
The headdress can be snow-white or slightly blue; cold red shades, brown gray-brown tones (if you have blond hair), as well as soft pink and pale blue colors are suitable.
Cool green goes well with any shade of blue - the darker your coat, the darker your hat should be.
If your color type is “spring” or “autumn”, choose outerwear in a warm shade - grass, verdepom, yellow-green, olive, dark pistachio.
The color of the hat for such a coat should also be warm - yellow, beige, brown and red-brown shades look great.
Try a leopard-print hat and pair your outfit with a brown dress and matching ankle boots.
Surely, you have already guessed which hat to choose for a coat of a light pink shade; a light blue color will best play the role of a companion.
For many ladies, this combination seems banal and simple, in which case try on a lilac headdress or a bright fuchsia hat. To make the look practical and attractive, use the contrast of pink and black.
Gray is perfect - this combination will help create an elegant, classic outfit.
For bold street looks, choose purple beanies or red earflaps. A light pink coat with a bright pink hat and matching gloves looks great.
A milky white hat will go perfectly with a winter coat in pink, but the outfit will turn out to be soiled.
Hats for a bright red coat
Not every girl will decide to wear a bright red coat, but if you are confident in your appearance and are not afraid to attract the gaze of passers-by, you can safely choose a hat in a contrasting shade.
Use the color block technique, in which the outfit is made up of several large solid blocks of contrasting colors.
Hats for red coats can be green, in which case choose yellow trousers or a dress.
If only red and green are present in the outfit, such a combination will involuntarily evoke Christmas associations, the image will seem folkloric.
A blue beret and a red cloak are a great solution for a nautical style; complement the outfit with a snow-white scarf and themed embroidery on the bag.
Of course, a black hat goes perfectly with a red outerwear, add black ankle boots with a heel, black leggings and a pleated plaid skirt.
Do you want to know which hat goes with a red coat in a youth or street style?
Choose a black or dark gray sock hat or oversized beret.
For young girls, white hats and white accessories can be recommended as a casual outfit, and for older women, add-ons in beige colors.
Bright looks are also welcome - pick up a pink snood and fuchsia-colored boots - an excellent choice for girls with natural golden-brown hair color.
A purple hat will also go well with a red coat - limit yourself to this color scheme and do not add large black, brown or white details.
What to wear with a light-colored coat
The universal light color is firmly in the same place in popularity along with black. Wide possibilities for combining accessories. FROM black to all shades of coral and orange.
The combination of beige and chocolate in accessories will make your look more expensive. The constant rule that is used when purchasing a hat to match any color of outerwear allows for a difference of three tones from the top.
How to choose a hat style?
Gone are the days when you paid attention to the compatibility of things according to the season: you couldn’t wear sandals with a woolen dress, and you couldn’t wear a warm fur hat with an autumn coat. Nowadays you won’t surprise anyone with slippers and a down jacket, the main thing is that you feel comfortable! Therefore, anything is possible: a warm hat with an autumn coat or a thin hat with a fur coat.
But still, hats, berets, caps and baseball caps are an option for autumn. And for warmer weather, it is wiser to choose a warm knitted hat or fur headdress.
Speaking of fur options. You will look extravagant in them. Such a hat is quite noticeable, so it inevitably becomes the heart of the image. In this case, you need to pay special attention to ensuring that the style of the coat is current. Otherwise, you risk turning from an extravagant fashionista into an aunt from the USSR. And there's nothing wrong with that either, especially if you like retro style
