You may not know this about me but I love a good hat! Rancher hats have been gaining popularity so I decided to jump on the trend to check it out for myself 😉 I ended up getting this creamy tan color and could not be more in love with it! It seriously goes with everything. I loved it so much that I ended up getting a pink one too haha!! This style hat has a classically masculine shape but there are definitely a few ways to style a rancher hat in a feminine way. Read on to see how!

How to Style a Rancher Hat in a Feminine Way

When I think of how to style a rancher hat in a feminine way, a few things come to mind. There are a handful of ways to create a feminine look that I’ve listed below (and you don’t even have to be as girly as I am). Look for one or more of these elements when putting together your outfit!
Wear Light Colors
First things first, choose light colors. This is best for spring and summer but can work for other seasons as well. Also, you don’t have to only wear light colors but I think it looks best when trying to create a feminine look 🙂
For neutrals, look for:
- Cream
- White
- Light Grey
For colors, look for:
- Light blue
- Mint Green
- Blush Pink
- Light Yellow
- Light Tangerine
- Lilac
- Pretty much any light pastel!
Choose Light Fabrics
When it comes to fabrics, lighter is always better! Think – breezy, airy, twirly, etc. Personally, I think that classically feminine fabrics look best when paired with a masculine element such as a rancher hat. And the fabric does not have to be just one color, prints work well too (especially florals).
Look for fabrics like:
- Tulle
- Lace
- Chiffon
- Linen
- Cotton
- Silk
- Knits
- Swiss Dot
- Organza
Look for Romantic Details
Romantic details definitely scream feminine! And they might be my favorite element to look for in clothing. Although you could absolutely wear a simple cream tulle skirt or blush pink lace dress, the addition of the romantic details un-mistakenly creates an unapologetically feminine look.
Look for details like:
- Ruffles
- Embroidery
- Bows
- Pearls
- Lace Trim
- Embellishments
- Buttons
- Puff Sleeves
Create a Feminine Silhouette
You all know I’m a dress girl so I LOVE creating a feminine silhouette! I tend to wear dresses or skirt and top combos that come in at the waist to create a flattering, feminine look. You can also opt for a looser fit house dress for a more relaxed look and if you’re just not a dress kind of girl, try jeans with a feminine top (peplum or peasant tops are perfect for this!).
I hope you loved these tips on how to style a rancher hat in a feminine way!
