Best Winter Hats to Wear with a Mask
Get suited up for winter with the right masks and hats. There are plenty of women’s hats that you can wear with a mask this winter, whether you prefer a casual style or something dressy. Keep reading for tips on choosing masks, hats, and other cold-weather essentials.
Choosing a Face Mask
There are multiple options when it comes to choosing a face mask. You’ll find fitted styles made from cotton and treated with an antimicrobial finish, along with cotton/polyester blends that provide the best qualities of each material. Double-layered cotton masks in pretty prints are another option to consider. All these mask materials are machine-washable for easy cleaning, and they come in multipacks so you’ll always have one to wear.
When it comes to what kind of hat to wear, the possibilities are virtually unlimited. Here are our picks for the best winter hats to wear with masks:
Fleece Beanie
Accessorize any winter outfit with a fleece beanie. Whether you’re wearing women’s jeans and a sweatshirt or a dressier outfit — such as slacks and a cashmere sweater — a fleece beanie is a stylish way to stay warm. If you want a hat that goes with everything, choose a brushed fleece beanie in a classic color such as black or navy.
There are also fleece beanies in bold colors and prints, such as leopard. For an optimum fit, look for a beanie with darts at the crown. An antistatic finish is also a good feature to have in a beanie, as it prevents the accumulation of lint and static electricity.
Chenille Beanie
There’s just something cozy about the fuzzy softness of chenille. Wear your mask and other winter apparel with a chenille beanie adorned with a fluffy pom-pom for a look that’s perfect for outdoor fun. For maximum warmth, choose a chenille beanie with a sherpa lining. These hats come in an array of styles, including stripes and solid colors. They work with all kinds of winter clothes, from trendy high-rise jeans to women’s loungewear. A chenille sweater paired with a beanie in the same material imparts a cute, coordinated look to any outfit, whether you pair it with leggings, jeans, or a skirt.
CashTouch Beanie
Another option for winter hats that comes in a beanie style is CashTouch. This material looks and feels like cashmere, except it’s crafted from a polyester blend. CashTouch beanies are ribbed all over for a polished look, and the fibers are yarn-dyed for lasting vibrancy. A touch of spandex provides a slip-resistant fit that’s never too tight.
CashTouch beanies come in a rainbow of colors to coordinate with your outfits. Match a fuchsia sweater with a beanie in the same hue to brighten any winter day or opt for a women’s wool sweater in a neutral tone such as heather gray for a look that’s classic yet on-trend.
CashTouch Cloche Hat
For an upscale accessory that goes well with formal outerwear, there’s the CashTouch cloche hat. The outside is luxe CashTouch fabric, while the inside is lined with Thermaskin™. This innovative material warms the fabric while you’re wearing it, and it has antistatic properties to prevent static electricity and lint. Women’s wool coats go well with cloche hats, especially if you choose complementary or matching colors. Impart an upscale touch to your hat by having it monogrammed with initials.
You can also wear a cloche hat with a casual outfit for a fashion-forward touch. For example, pair skinny jeans, calf-high boots, and a women’s tunic top with a cloche hat, or wear one with jeggings and a chunky knit sweater. There’s really no wrong way to wear this classic women’s hat.
Trapper Hat
If you need headwear for the frostiest temperatures, opt for a faux-fur-lined trapper hat. This type of hat provides plenty of coverage because it comes down over the ears. When putting on a trapper hat, you’ll probably want to put on your mask first. Some trapper hats are enhanced with PrimaLoft insulation, which can also be found inside down-alternative coats. The exterior of these hats is water-resistant, so you can wear them in the snow or rain without your head getting wet.
Trapper hats go with most anything. You can wear them with your snow-day clothes, such as an insulated parka and fleece-lined women’s sweatpants. For a look that’s expertly coordinated, match the faux-fur lining of your trapper hat with outerwear with the same kind of trim.
Other Winter Accessories
All these hats can be worn with any type of mask. When shopping for a hat, you may also want to pick up other winter accessories, such as women’s scarves and gloves. Snow boots are another must-have for the winter season. Women’s thermals are another good idea for winter, especially if you plan on doing any outdoor activities.
