Three Stylish Ways To Rock A Baseball Cap

A fierce focus of debate, yet one of the most polarizing accessories in history, is the baseball cap. Many believe that slapping one on your head promotes your appearance to one that is contemporary and stylish. Others, however, believe that it is a fashion faux pas of unparalleled magnitude. The latter is mistaken!

In today's fashion world, from celebrity entertainers to politicians to fashionistas, numerous individuals have figured out how to not only rock a baseball cap but cement its place as a haute couture accessory.

So, the question of rocking a baseball cap becomes less "how to" and more "how do you want to?" Because, truth be told, there are numerous manners in which to fashionably don the many styles of baseball caps in existence today. Since you’ve expressed interest, however, here are a few ideas.

New York Is Always in Style

There can be little doubt that New York is America's home of fashion. So, any cap with a New York logo starts things off quite nicely. Build your outfit around the hat or use it to accessorize an already stunning outfit. The choice is yours.

If it's a little chilly out, use a solid, fitted cap. As the weather gets warmer, a mesh back on your hat will help your head breathe, keeping you cooler. Remember that when going with a fitted hat, you must know your size before purchasing it. If you've got one of those heads that's just too hard to fit, the snapback style was created with you in mind.

Wear your hat to a Yankees game, Jets game, or some other sporting event. Take it with you and be prepared for the windy streets. Or wear it just because you love to.

A Touch of Luxury

Fabrics such as corduroy, wool, and suede are perfect options for kicking your outfit (and headwear) up a notch. To wear with it, choose classic wardrobe staples such as slim fit chinos and a lightweight jacket.

Remember, in this day and age, it is not out of the question to wear a baseball cap with a suit. Far from it, in fact. A crisp pair of sneakers, a plain T-shirt, and unobstructed blazer – all paired with the right baseball cap – make you look less like a teenager and more like a professional.

Promoting Your Street Cred

We are not referring to any gang affiliation here, and you're not trying to look like the latest and greatest rapper. This is simply a look that comes from the streets. The marriage between streetwear and high fashion is alive, well, and thriving, still. Saunter into the pub tonight with some cropped jeans or trousers, a logo T-shirt or hoodie, and a dad hat or five panel cap.

Added Fashion Notes

There are a few burning debates still taking place where hats are concerned.

• Should your everyday guy or gal on the street wear the brim of their hat off to one side? Please, please do not wear the brim of the hat off to the side.
• Should the stickers on a hat stay there or be removed? If there are stickers on the hat, please remove them.
• Should the brim of the hat be left flat or curved (bent)? This depends and who you are or who you're trying to be. It's a matter of taste, more or less. The good news is that if you bend it, you can always work it straight again; and if you like it straight (for now), you can always bend it later.

Where to Find That Rockin’ Baseball Cap

Whether it's camouflage for a bad hair day or to expertly top off a flashy outfit, why and how you wear your baseball cap is entirely up to you. It isn't that hard to rock the look. It's harder, in fact, not to.
