Hat Heroine: Millie Mackintosh

Okay, we’ve accepted it, summer is well and truly over. We’ve picked out our favourite boots and coats for the coming months but there’s one vital accessory missing, the perfect hat. Often overlooked when it comes to getting ready, hats are both gorgeous and practical, and they hide a bad hair day better than Batiste.

For inspiration, we’re looking to Chelsea style maven Millie Mackintosh, a lady who is rarely seen without some fierce, felt headgear.
