Women’s Illustrated Guide To Wearing Hats And Glasses

< Interested in our hats and glasses guide for men instead? We have that too!

Although glasses and hats are a match made in heaven, not everyone feels like they know how to pull off the look. Sometimes wearing a hat and a funky pair of frames can be an overkill, making you look too ‘busy’. However, if done right, you can really pull off one of the coolest looks out there!

So how can you wear your hat and glasses together and pull off the look while keeping it looking effortless?

 

What hat style are you?

Before taking a closer look at how to wear hats and glasses, think about what kind of hat style represents you.

If you’re into that Boho floaty look, pick floppy wide brimmed hats, oversized fedoras and even slouchy berets. If you’re more of the preppy type, boaters, berets, small fedoras, and breton hats are excellent choices! And for those who love all things vintage, there’s nothing greater than structured wide-brimmed hats, cloches, fascinators, and small pill-box hats to make a statement.

If you don’t really know what hat styles are out there, here’s a winter/summer list for women!

Winter Women Hats

1. Bobble hats

The ultimate ski bunny’s accessory, bobble hats were huge in 2014 and making a comeback in 2023-2024 winter season! You’ll look super cute hitting the slopes in the Swiss Alps this year with the must-have hat.

While bobble hats are pretty versatile and can complement almost any style of eyewear frames, pick up a pair of larger frames sunnies or a classic old school retro square shape sunglasses . Oversized eyeglasses or sunglasses aren’t just for the beach.

Larger frames work fantastically well on the ski slopes blocking out those harmful UV rays and the harsh wintery weather conditions, not to mention you’ll look like ski royalty.
