In the previous Know your Hats post... I had let you in a short snippet of the popular hats we fashionistas can use to accessorise on a sunny day out!
And recently our weather has been so unkind that I had people ask me.. 'Where can I get these hats!"... To be honest with you.. I don't get my hats from Malaysia.. Most of my pretty hats are from Vietnam not only cos they are cheap.. They have a wide variety to choose from! Benh thanh Market (with much bargaining) sells fedoras at USD7 and straw hats at USD12 onwards.. If you're not into the bargaining activity Non Som sells straw hats at a set price of VND200k = RM28
Coming back closer to home... Where can we find hats to buy in Malaysia?

A little bit up-market but you really get what you pay for! =P The straw hats are not only stylish, they are also conviniently foldable =)
So which of the 3 you ask is Jojo's Fav? Accessorize wins hands down for their straw hats! Although pricey.. its adjustable flaps frames your facey nicely giving you the chic summer-y look.
However if you're looking for Fedoras.. Deeper and Harder has a plethora of colours, shapes and size! =) and like I said before, the little cute Hat Attack cart has a good range of berets to choose from.. especially the knited ones!
But if you really want a good deal... take a trip down to Melaka town!

Selling all kinds of hats from fedora to straw hats, Melaka, the Historical City (2 hours away from KL city) ... sells hats as cheap as RM5 all the way to RM20 for tourists feeling the afternoon Heat! Take a walk down Jonker Street and you won't be short of Hats to buy! May require some bargaining, but Hey.. it's a real steal!
