Spring is the time to transition your wardrobe to lighter pieces and brighter colours. Changing temperatures throughout the day warrant layering clothes and picking versatile breathable fabrics like cotton and linen. You can pack away your winter hats. Instead, accessorize with lightweight hats that will keep your head warm in the cool mornings and evenings. Choose your hats and scarves to bridge between the seasons.
I was inspired by the flush of spring flowers emerging this time of year. Whether it be yellow daffodils, red tulips, or pink cherry tree blossoms, the gardens are alive with colour and called me to include them in my hat designs.
Though rare in nature, flowers in shades of blue – china blue, deep blue, and lilac – are common in spring. It’s lovely to see clumps of bluebells, forget-me-nots and grape hyacinths growing along footpaths. Blue is a very popular and flexible colour for women’s, men’s and children’s hats.
