While sizing up my winter accessories this fall, I realized all of my winter hats -- namely, my beanies -- were horribly out of date. That is, they were too fitted (like skull caps) and also the wrong colors for the coat I'd purchased last season.

After a half a day's search through SoHo, I alighted upon a gray knit hat at Club Monaco. It was soft, not itchy, just the right shade of grey and -- most importantly of all -- was roomy enough in the back to look contemporary (a la the many beanies worn by Cara Delevingne). I like the delicate cable knit detailing as well.

It's held up perfectly well this winter, and I even find myself wearing it indoors (hey, hat hair!). If you're thinking of getting one yourself, I'll point out that the hat also comes in cream, black and a lighter gray shade Club Monaco calls "iceberg."

Club Monaco Savannah hat, $69.50, available at Club Monaco.
