We're all tired of the cold and snow which is why we've decided to look forward to spring and summer (instead of looking outside at the inclement weather)! New styles will soon be arriving in stores and online. These killer fashion hats are the perfect accessory to make your new spring threads stand out!
Below is a SNEAK PEAK at some of the latest styles to be popping up this spring. Check them out and be sure to stop back by the Lids Blog to see when all these new styles are available.
Linen 6 Panel Driver (Shown left in Olive)
Nothing says spring like linen! This lightweight driving cap can turn even the blandest outfit into a well-styled look. Perfectly preppy but easy to pull off with any outfit.
Trilby 10 (Shown right in Black)
The trilby is by no means a new style; however, we've updated the Trilby 08 to be more in line with changing trends. The Trilby 10 features a shorter brim and lower crown. The update makes it very wearable!
PL Straw Fedora w/Grosgrain Band (shown left in Natural)
Straw hats are an excellent compliment to your summer look--throw on some shades and a pair of comfy sandals and you'll be paparazzi ready! This straw fedora, much like the trilby, has also been updated with a shorter brim and lower crown. The grosgrain band adds a playful touch and a punch of color.
PL Patterned 6 Panel Driver 10 (shown right in Brown)
Tonal patterns are great for spring. This brown plaid driver has enough texture and pattern to make it interesting, but not overbearing. This driving cap (or ivy cap) is very versatile--the neutral color and classic silhouette make it must have item to add to your collection.
Remember, these are SNEAK PEAKS, but all of the hats shown today will be arriving in stores and online soon...very soon! Check back often to find out when you can get your hands on these fabulous fashion hats. Be sure to leave us your comments and ideas for future styles on the Lids Blog, Facebook or Twitter.

The US Open Tennis Championships have been a hot spot for celebrities recently. With so many photographers around, celebs have been working hard to look fashionable without being too overdone. The celebrities in attendance have been sporting all the latest fashion looks...including fashion hats! Here are just a few of the celebs that were rockin' hats and lookin' good.
Actress Nicole Kidman and hubby/musician Keith Urban look on while enjoying some tennis action. Kidman is seen wearing a fedora with oversized sunglasses. Looking casual and sophisticated, like Nicole, is easy with fedoras and trilbys.
(Right) Seann Williams Scott, best known as Stifler from the 1999 movie American Pie, was seen sporting a military style hat at the US Open. This military hat has just enough style to take a look from boring basics to effortlessly trendy. Scott has amped up his look by adding a simple military cap to his plaid shirt and jeans.
Lids Readers, do you have a favorite fashion hat or fashion style that you like to wear? Whose look do you like best: Nicole, Sean or Tony's? Celebrity fashion always seems to infiltrate "everyday wear" for us "normal people," but this is one look we can wrap our head's around!
I was given the nickname "First Lady of the Hat Game" (First Lady for short) by one of our sales reps because I was the first female buyer here at HW & L! I am responsible for buying all of our blank and private label hats. A few years back we decided to really focus on building our private label program and it has grown each year since. It has been successful not only because of its competitive price points, but mainly because it offers our customers something a little different...fashion sihouettes! We have a great selection of fedoras, ivys, and militarys which are really driving the category right now. This is partly because celebrities such as Brad Pitt are rarely seen not wearing some sort of fashion headwear...even his son Knox is into them!
