If you’re like me, you love to create. And if you’re really like me, you love when you can combine creativity with fashion. That’s why I’ve always had a soft spot for Fleastyle.

I’ve been a regular at Fleastyle for years, and it’s always been a treat. But today? Today was extra special. I finally got the chance to experience their Hat Bar, and I’ve gotta say, it did not disappoint.

Now, if you’re new to the world of hats or haven’t heard of the Hat Bar, let me give you the rundown. First of all, I’m kind of obsessed with hats. Seriously, I wear one almost every day. A great hat can totally elevate an outfit, and I love how versatile they are. But what really excites me about Fleastyle is how you can make your hat truly your own.

The Hat Bar is stocked with all sorts of fun accessories — from ribbons and feathers to playing cards and jewels. You can make your hat as simple or as extra as you want, which is exactly what I was looking for.

Choosing a hat was the hardest part because there are so many great options! After some serious deliberation, I went with a turquoise blue Stetson with stars cut out of the brim. It had been on my mind since my last visit to the Fort Worth location, so I was pretty excited to finally take it home.

The real fun came next: customizing the hat. I worked with Kristin, the hat stylist, who helped me pick out some playful ribbons, feathers, and even a couple of cards to add to the design. She’s a true artist and put everything together in the most perfect way.

If you’re in Dallas or Fort Worth (or even just visiting), I can’t recommend Fleastyle enough. Whether you’re stopping by for the Hat Bar experience or just to browse, the vibe is always welcoming, creative, and full of surprises.

And if you can’t make it to the store, you can still book a virtual hat appointment — because who doesn’t want a custom hat experience from the comfort of home?
