Why do berets go with everything?

Hi, my name is Lauren and I'm addicted to {wearing} berets. No, I'm not trying to be French...I just have a huge appreciation for (an apparently flat) hat. It all started in 2017 when I became enamored by the Dior leather beret that was shown in the fall runway show.

I tracked it down on Vestiare for a fraction of the retail price and so my obsession with berets began. I then discovered the denim veiled version on the site- so of course I added that one to my wardrobe as well. Then I must have subconsciously decided that I needed a beret for each day of the week. My favorites are a vintage sequin beret by Chanel, a wool Gucci beret, and my most recent tweed addition by Patou- chin strap included. (All of these I have found secondhand or on sale!)

I have come to the conclusion that a beret elevates ANY outfit. Take a cue from Zimmermann and wear one with a dress.

Pair a beret with your basic jeans and t shirt and now you've got yourself a look. Wear one with anything! I guarantee you, it will work. Or at least I think so!
