Leave it to Portland Monthly to have Portland's style covered, and the hats they used in June's Prêt-à-Portland have these outfits covered perfectly. The dresses are darling, the bags are perfect for strolling, but the hats make the outfits outstanding!

"After months of eager anticipation, summer’s sun-dappled mornings, balmy afternoons, and seemingly endless hours of daylight are finally upon us. It’s almost like June is whispering, Slow down, kick off your shoes, and take the afternoon off.

Pulling on a sundress or romper is an effortless way to give in to the call. These one-piece classics have always defined easy, warm-weather style, needing only a few well-chosen accessories to shine. This year, they’re more versatile than ever, thanks to the tailored details and office-appropriate hemlines that allow them to move from a meeting on Friday to sangria on Saturday; just add strappy sandals and a wide-brimmed hat."

-from the June issue of Portland Monthly

Just flipping through the magazines...and so many hats to be seen!!! The above photo is of MTV's Whitney Port who says, "For me, accessories make an outfit. I don't think I typically have 'hattitude,' but this beachy one works." Here's another one of her sporting a 'hat at the beach' look...



...I love how casual the outfit looks, and I think it's the hat that pulls the outfit together. Hats seems to be very popular at the beach or on vacation, at least according to the photos I found in June's issue of Marie Claire...




I'm seeing a trend with the light colored fedoras and dsitressed caps...of which we have plenty here in the shop. We just got a great shipment of men's and women's fedoras, in a rainbow of colors...blues, creams, browns, greys, even pink! Made in straws and cotton blends, they are sure to keep you cool under the hot summer sun...which will hopefully be out for good soon! Here's another little darling I found in June's Cosmopolitan...



Love it! Stop in to Bonnet on the next sunny day to try out some of the latest styles! See you soon!

Summer styles are in from Seeberger! Seeberger, a family run company based in Germany, has been making hats sine 1890, and is now in its fourth generation. Their hats are a favorite in our shop because of their quality and unique styles. If you need a simple braided straw hat, they've got it...and if you need a colorful hat for your vacation, they've got that too! You can find their hats in Harper's Bazaar, Vogue Italia, and right here in Portland, at Bonnet! These styles and more are available now!

My newest favorite...this darling little thing from Betmar! Does this hat not beg to be taken on a picnic? Or taken to the park to watch the little ones run around and play? The quintessential straw hat gets updated with ribbons weaved through it and fun fraying for a casual touch. It comes in three color combos...shown above is the red/blue, but it also comes in pink/brown and blue/green. Check out these other sunny options fresh in the store:




Hope to see you soon! Looks like another great weekend coming up...so where's your sunhat?

Just in...These adorable Cowboy hats in adult and child sizes! I just love the burnt sienna borwn, and the tan one is a bit tea stained for some extra character! The chin strap is great, because you can just let it hang on your back if you need to take it off for a breif moment. But who would want to take it off? It offers great coverage, and there's nothing better than a good, classic cowboy hat! Come in and get one for yourself or treat the little cowboy or cowgirl in your life!
