Accessory Alert: Its Chaplin's Bowler Hat'

Charlie Invented, we inherited! the bowler Hat's was a male accessory before women incorporated it their looks but to differentiate it from the men they usually wore it with the flaps pulled down. as time went on, ladies decide to wear it in the same manner men did and it has been a fashion statement that has poped in and out of fashion over the years. It is making a Comeback again ....... into my closet!

Loving my latest purchase and the joy of summer slowly creeping up on us (NZ), i figure i share some style tips on how you can keep the bowler hat in your Everyday Look.
