Make Your Soring Hat a Spring Tonic
tkUNA nut.
TN spring a young woman's fancy lightly turns to though's of hats.
But the wisest of women direct their attention towards the
often troublesome matter of selecting headwear long before the
first daffodil pokes its head above the ground.
A hat can make or break your spring outfit. It must at onpe
suit your personality, tie in with the color of your ensemble, flatter
your features and enhance your general appearance.
Too often women are swept off their feet by a single virtue in a
hat For example, while the color may be a perfect match or con
trast, the shape of the hat may leave much to be desired.
Picture hats, for instance, are particularly complimentary to
A sheaf of sheer white net, knife pleated, streaks across this dra
matic spring creation. The demure pleated net is held in place by
a broad band of pink velvet ribbon
Golden straw leaves are strewn across the stiffened blonde mesh
of this spring picture hat. Shallow crowned and wide brimmed,
the hat sparkles with scattered rhinestones.
women with long slender faces but do little for naturally round
faces.
Hats with horizontal lines, like the one at lower left, are a boon
to unusually tall women but a liability for women who are short.
On the other hand, turban-type hats aid high heels in coming to
the rescue of women who wish they were a little taller.
In choosing the color of your spring hat, don’t trust your memory.
If you want the hat to match your outfit, take a swatch of material
with you on your hat-shopping trip.
And, above all, ask yourself how long you will truly look for
ward to wearing the hat. When you try it on, does it seem to give
an added lilt to your step?
Remember that altogether hats are the perennial butt of jokes by
the male of the specie, they are as much of a spring tonic as sulphur
and molasses. There is nothing like a hat to provide some relief
from a winter of dreary landscapes or a month of drab domestic
chores.
So when you buy a hat, take a deep breath of courage and take
a hat that will make you want to bold your head high.
