Sophisticated women are not satisfied with just styling their outfits, they also need attractive accessories. Hats are essential accessories in the autumn and winter seasons because hats can not only help in styling but also keep you warm. Moreover, there are various styles of hats and we, Aung Crown – a custom hat manufacturer, will recommend winter bucket hats for women in the fall and winter seasons today.

Bucket hats are very fashionable yet versatile, they can be combined with different outfits ingeniously and can also make the face look smaller. What is more, by combining bucket hats with some casual outfits, the whole look is youthful, which is great for women just starting on their fashion journey.

How to Pick a Winter Hat?

The principle of choosing a bucket hat is quite simple, based mainly on personal complexion, hairstyle, and face shape. If women choose the right one, you can look stylish, vivacious, and youthful.

1.    Complexion

When it comes to choosing the right winter beanie, the complexion is important. In general, yellow or black complexions are suitable for dark colors, and white complexions for light colors.

Yellow & black complexions: recommended dark colors

Most Asian women have a yellow or yellow-black complexion. Therefore, it’s advisable to choose dark-colored bucket hats, as bright or light-colored hats can darken the complexion. Compared to light-colored bucket hats, dark-colored bucket hats are more suitable because black-colored bucket hats don’t accentuate your complexion and make the whole look discreet, fashionable yet versatile.

White complexion: recommended bright and colorful colors

Women who are white-complexion can boldly choose brightly colored bucket hats. Such highly saturated colors can make the complexion of fair-skinned women whiter, and brightly colored bucket hats can enhance the sense of styling, making the whole look more stylish. But please choose plain-colored outfits to match.

2.    Hairstyle

For women with short hairstyles, it’s recommended to choose plush bucket hats for the autumn and winter seasons. For women with long hair, choosing a wide-brimmed bucket hat for the autumn and winter seasons is also a good idea.

Short hair: recommended plush bucket hats

Cashmere is trendy this year, and so are plush bucket hats. Such a bucket hat has a sense of cuteness and reduces age, which makes it more suitable for women or girls with short hairstyles. Also, a plush bucket hat is warmer than other hats in autumn and winter.

Long hair: recommended wide-brimmed bucket hats

Women with long hair are more likely to wear wide-brimmed bucket hats. This is because wide-brimmed bucket hats can reduce the volume of long hair and won’t look too heavy. Plus, wearing a wide-brimmed bucket hat is pretty cool and handsome, and it’s easy to pull off a wide-brimmed bucket hat look on the go.

3.    Face shape

The last one is the face shape. In general, there are three common face shapes for women: round, square, and oval.

Round face: deep-crown and narrow-brimmed bucket hats

Round-faced women are more likely to wear deep-crowned, narrow-brimmed bucket hats. This is because round faces are plump, and shallow-crowned bucket hats don’t have a modifying effect on round-faced women. Deep-crown bucket hats can shorten the proportion of the head, which can make the face look less round.

Square face: rounded-top and wide-brimmed bucket hats

Generally speaking, square-faced women have pronounced cheekbones, so it’s a very good idea to wear a round-topped, wide-brimmed bucket hat. Why? Because the wide brim can weaken the high cheekbones and make the face look smaller. There is one thing to note, and that is the way you wear it. It’s better to wear your hair down when wearing a bucket hat, which can make your face look like a V-shape.

Oval face: no limiting in hat shapes – fashionable yet versatile

Oval-faced women can handle all types of bucket hats. Oval-faced women can also switch between different styles. If you are worried about going wrong, then please check out basic styles and basic colors that are simple, fashionable yet versatile.

How to Wear a Bucket Hat?

Once you have chosen a bucket hat based on the principles above, here are some examples of how to choose a style of bucket hat and combine it with clothing. Ready to go?

1.    Choose the right style

First of all, the choice of style is important. Here are 3 popular types of winter bucket hats: plush bucket hats, printed bucket hats, and solid-colored bucket hats.

Plush bucket hats

If you want to keep up with the trend, it’s a good idea to choose a bucket hat made from cashmere or rabbit hair. Plush fabrics can make the beanies warmer and more textured, making them look more sophisticated and more suitable for pairing with heavy winter outfits.

Printed bucket hats

Printed elements are one of the elements that have become popular from spring to autumn and winter. For women who love printed elements but are afraid to try out large printed outfits, they can start with printed bucket hats. Wearing such a bucket hat is quite cool, no matter whether you combine it with basic outfits or cool outfits, both look quite nice.

Solid-colored bucket hats

Plain bucket hats are simpler and more basic, making them fashionable yet versatile. If you find plain-colored bucket hats boring without any accents, then you can consider bucket hats made of special materials such as knitted fabrics, leather, velvet, etc. Such a bucket hat is vintage and modern, with curly hair and red lip make-up, you can instantly go back to the 1970s and 1980s and become a modern and vintage woman.

2.    Styling with proper outfits

 Besides choosing the right style of bucket hats, pairing outfits is also very important. Here are the three types of outfits for styling a winter bucket hat.

Cool sweatshirt

Black bucket hats are neutral with a sense of good looks. That’s why it’s super cool to wear a black bucket hat with an oversized black sweatshirt. The oversized design is more enveloping and can make the whole look slimmer. If you think black is too boring, you can choose colorful or brightly colored trousers as an eye-catcher. This look is super cool on the street.                                                                                                                                                                                          

Gentle sweaters

Bucket hats can also be soft and create a delicate look. The key is to choose light colors and narrow brims, then combine them with a white knit jumper for an instant soft and ladylike look. The bottom can be combined with denim trousers or skirts, which can lengthen the leg lines and make you look taller and slimmer.

Boyfriend shirts

Boyfriend style is also very popular this year. If you love this style, you can choose boyfriend-style shirts to go with bucket hats. For bucket hats, you can choose black and white patchwork, which is simple yet stylish. The boyfriend shirts can also be black and white patchwork, which can be used to match the bucket hats. The bottom can choose cargo pants, making you smooth and feminine.

This is the end of our introduction to how to choose a bucket hat and how to style it. We – Aung Crown – hope this can help you enhance your winter look with winter bucket hats – stylish and sophisticated.
