What kind? Fedora, porkpie, bowler, trilby, driving cap, panama, etc?

Post pics of yourself in your favorite hat!

I'd like to get some inspiration.

The kind of hat to get really depends on what looks good on you... Go to a legitimate hat store (not the hat department of a department store) and often the folks who work there can recommend styles that will work for you. I, for example, cannot pull off a baseball hat to save my life; the shaped of my head, my hairstyle, etc conspire to make me look like a doofus wearing one. I tend toward hats with a fairly full brim, typically in a fedora style, and I like a pinched crown. I also look good in a driving cap style of hat. If I try to pull off a porkpie or one of this short brim hipster styles I look ridiculous... The look just doesn't work on my head/with my face.
