Inspiration please

I´m having trouble finding the perfect hat pattern for a friend of mine.

 

Do you have any websites I could go to, to get some inspiration for assescoires that are "in fashion" right now?

the DROPS website seems to be very fashionable; I'm sorry, I don't seem to have saved or bookmarked the link.

Crochet pattern Central (CPC as it's often referred to) has a ton of patterns with pictures. It's not a fashion site, per se, just a pattern site, but it's got a ton of stuff, worth looking through http://www.crochetpatterncentral.com

 

This site has a huge collection of pattern links...some are dead, some don't have pictures, but the site is HUGE;there's bound to be something in there somewhere.

Beyond that, I'm afraid I'm not much help. Sorry.

Yes, thanks. I´ve already checked crochetpatterncentral, and many of drops (garnstudio) patterns.

But I would like to see what kind of hats and other assescoires that´s in style this autumn and winter. It doesn´t have to be a pattern site, I´ll just need some inspiration to get started

have you looked at the magazine covers in checkout aisles? Or People magazine? They aren't "fashion" mags really, but they show some of what people are currently wearing. Or maybe via a site like msn.com...sometimes on their homepage they have sub-headings having to do with fashion/accessories. along the top bar they have a "shopping link" Today, in the top left they have (it rotates between three "headlines" a side heading on "get the look for less" probably not accessories, but who knows?

maybe that can give you some inspiration? Might be too early for hats in some of the fashion sites?

[Daydreamer-girl]

Yes, maybe it´s still a bit early. Hmm...I´ll see if I stumble upon anything interesting
