My Dirty Hair Fix

Creature of comfort that I am, I was delighted when I got an invitation to a blogger dinner at Eli's Tavern in my old stomping grounds of Milford. What can I say, I love knowing how to navigate without the aid of Google, knowing where to park, and where the good photo spots are. Naturally I immediately contacted Meg to meetup for outfit photos beforehand.

The only slight problem was that it happened to be on the night of the week when my evening plans typically include a workout at the gym followed by washing my hair. In my efforts to get my hair washing down to once a week, day seven is generally spent with a messy bun, avoiding public outings if possible. (Not ideal, I know, but even with my new favorite dry shampoo, OGX Teatree Mint, not much helps by that point.)

Enter the hat. The best accessory of all, with the power to hide the oiliest of scalps, while gaining numerous compliments. It's kind of my secret weapon, and now you know.

I have another secret, and it's for anyone presently thinking "oh, but I'm not a hat person", and I want you to know that you are. It's possible you haven't found the right hat yet. Perhaps you've gone into Target and tried on hats and laughed as they flopped around on your head, confirming that you are not a hat person. However one size fits all hats are the worst. While some can be adjusted slightly with a foam strip under the sweat band, it's best to find a hat that fits properly from the start. This J.Crew Panama hat comes in three sizes, and I also love my Brixton Joanna hat, which comes in four sizes and a dozen colors. I currently have it in navy and it's all I can do to not get another color!

Are you willing to try and become a hat person this summer, or are you already as hat obsessed as I?
