We all know the expression “hats off,” meaning to salute someone or something. I want to take my hat off to the fact that hats can be fun and trendy, and most of all, hide the fact I didn’t have time to do my hair this morning! Besides church and work (for the most part) hats can be a great way to disguise a bad hair day!
Originally, hats were made for protection, and as time went on they became status symbols of authority. Then hats became a form of expression. There is a saying, ”If you want to get ahead and get noticed, get a hat!” Below are eight personal style words to match your personal style with a great hat option.
