If you know me then you know that pink is my favorite color. Wear it with a smooth or with a textured look to it. Either with this hat screams loud, funky and fun! I must admit I am in love with this messy bun hat as well. Shh. Don’t tell anyone but I have a fetish for hats, slouchy hats and beanies. I mean who doesn’t love hats/beanies??
