Beanie Babes

If you can't tell by now, I'm a big fan of hats. During the tragic middle school fashion stage of my life I loved beanies. I totally had one from PacSun that was striped and had a knit monkey face on the side.. oh 2003 how I don't miss you! In my defense they were having a 'moment' thanks to the then-popular punk trend started by Ms. Avril Lavigne, but I digress.

This fall I feel like I've seen beanies everywhere. They're all over Pinterest and the blogosphere, and this new take on an old style looks surprisingly chic! These knit hats add a dose of hipster cool to any outfit and I'm loving the way these ladies have styled them. Take a look-

How do you feel about the beanie trend? Is this something we should leave in the past? How would you style this quirky cap? Can't wait to hear your thoughts!
