Bold colors are popular for Spring/Summer 2012, and this eye-catching kelly green was spotted on multiple runways. Perfect on its own or paired with high contrast black, this hue reminds us of spring and the tropics. Think grass, plant leaves and drinks with little umbrellas for the hottest look this spring.

Try pairing a simple neutral tone straw sun hat with a boldly colored outfit or a colorful topper with white and khaki for an equally chic style.

The Muppets are back . . . and sporting some fine hats in the new 2011 film simply titled: The Muppets. Are you a fan of Fozzy’s pork pie? Or maybe Janice’s cloche, Mr. Teeth’s top hat or Zoot’s flat cap . . . ?

Fozzy the Bear, fan of comedy and studebakers, has always been a man of fashion. From his signature polka dot scarf to the ever present brown pork pie, he’s a bear who knows how to dress.

If you’re looking for a dainty and more feminine look, try a simple cloche like Janice. She may be all about flower power and love, but she also knows how to pull out the fierce fashion guns!

Dr. Teeth is a mad scientist with music but a mad genius with his sense of style! If you want to look smooth, try a top hat . . . and don’t forget the feathers!

And if you’re more the quiet type, sitting in the corner watching life unfold around you . . . take a lesson from Zoot. This introverted sax player knows a thing or two about his look . . . and flat caps fit the bill.

It’s common knowledge that Johnny Depp is a hat-a-holic, but it also seems that his characters love them just as much! In The Rum Diary, more gorgeous hats grace his regal crown in the form of straw fedoras and planter hats. Set in the 1950s when hats were still a fashion necessity rather than simple accessory, Depp plays an American journalist in Puerto Rico.
