11 Celeb-Approved Reasons Why 2018 Is the Year of the Hat

11 Celeb-Approved Reasons Why 2018 Is the Year of the Hat


If we've learned anything from A-list events and street-style snaps so far, one thing is clear: 2018 is the year of the hat. Celebs and the style set alike have been wearing statement toppers of every variety since we said goodbye to 2017. Looking to master the trend for yourself? Worry not, because we searched high and low for this year's celeb-approved hat picks, including classic fedoras, trendy newsboys, and the French girl-approved berets. Scroll to see how celebs, including Beyonce and Chrissy Teigen, have made the accessories their own.
Beret Bey: Somehow Queen Bey looked even more glamorous than usual at this year's Grammy Awards. During her impromptu Insta shoot, the bombshell singer rocked a gorgeous Eugenia Kim beret before switching her headwear up for the main event. (Photo via @beyonce)
Hat Trick: We have major star eyes for Janelle Monae. Need proof? Just watch her new music video for “Make Me Feel” because it embodies all the funky stylishness the world needs right now. Her headwear throughout is absolutely on point, making us want to say yes to all the hats. We're especially feeling this pick that Monae rocked at a Pre-Grammy celebration. Pair yours with prints, crimson lips, and plenty of 'tude. (Photo via Jim Spellman/WireImage)

Good News: These Gatsby-style hats go by many names — bakerboy, newsboy, bandit cap — but whatever you call them, they don't disappoint. Take it from Kristen Bell and add a cap to your daily denim and sweater duo. (Photo via BG017/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images)

Tip of the Hat: If there's anything the KarJenner sisters are known for, it's drama — and style. Dress like a Kardashian (specifically a Khloe) and try a fedora that even Pharell would approve of. (Photo via BG022/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images)
