Trapper Keeper
Bundling up does not mean losing your sense of style. Nor does a week of unusually balmy New York weather require you to ditch all your winter accessories. You're completely justified in pulling out that new, fabulous hat and rocking it now with a leather bomber... and later with a heavy puffer (over a heavy sweater).
The new trapper hats work for men and women, offering a rustic type of vintage appeal that feels somehow modern, too. Browse your favorite vintage shop for something one-of-a-kind in real fur, and if you find it, go for it. If not, these retailers will have you trapped in late-fall style. Bonus: girls can borrow their boyfriend's trapper hat and wear it slightly large for added appeal.
GAP
With more locations throughout the city than one person can ever hope to visit, the Gap is that American throwback that never goes out of style and never disappoints. Women's faux fur trapper hat in caramel or gray; gap.com for stores and shopping, $39.95.
DIESEL
A little bit of European flair makes this street style spot a great choice for weekend wear.

FRENCH CONNECTION
Always refined and classic but with a cozy/girly edge, French Connection offers up this ski-slope-ready acrylic trapper with sweet blue print reminiscent of the sweater your grandma knit you many winters ago. But much cooler.
