Berets – you can only wear them if you’re Parisian or Cher from Clueless, right? Nu-uh. Having made its name as the ultimate it-girl accessory, this haute hat trend is having a fashion revival for AW17 – and we’re all over it. Need some convincing? Find out how to wear a beret like a total Insta babe with our style 411, and keep your head happy just like this.
Black Out
@cheraleelyle | Black Wool Beret, £12
If the thought of wearing a beret is *still* too much to handle, or you just wanna keep it simple, then a classic black number is the one for you. Make like fashion blogger Cheralee Lyle and team yours with a white slogan tee and light-wash denim for all the effortless cool.
Cut The Mustard
@theglitterygoose | Ochre Wool Beret, £12
Mustard yellow comes back with a bang every autumn/winter and this season is no exception. Get on the trend like blogger Emily Owen and style out an amber-coloured cutie with monochrome stripes and purple faux fur – ‘cause why the hell not? Dreamy pink hair optional.
Red Alert
@stilettobeatss | Red Wool Beret, £12
Wanna wear a beret and pretend you’re *actually* from Paris? Go for red like our style crush Emily Jenny Cholakian. Keep the look totes chic with a cushty black knit and gingham mini (extra points if it has frills), adding an extra hit of the stand-out hue with a structured bucket bag.
Pink About It
@lapetitenoob | Pink Wool Beret, £12
Millennial pink has still got us crushing hard this season – and Insta-babe Joëlle Anello knows it. Take tips from her sugar-sweet styling with a soft pink beret, worn with a polka-dot shirt and a swishy black mini for a look that’s v Blair Warldorf-worthy. Macarons, anyone?
Natural Order
@juliahengel | Nude Metallic Wool Beret, £15
Playing it low-key? Grab yourself a nude-hued beret like blogger babe Julia Hengel, wearing it over loose waves for a fuss-free finish. Throw on a long-line shirt, classic blue denim and heeled boots for weekend brunch vibes with an extra side of cool-girl chic. Sunday outfit = sorted.
