Hats on the Today show

I noticed this morning that Matt Lauer on NBC's Today show was wearing a black or navy blue fedora this morning while standing outside in the cold. He looked quite good in it, and indeed he is usually quite well-dressed. His cohost commented about it, and he said something about needing to keep his head warm in the 20-degree temperatures, especially given his thinning hair.

His other cohost, Al Roker, often wears a hat while he's outside announcing the weather, but this was the first time I've seen Lauer in a hat. I wonder if this indicates hats are becoming more acceptable, since prominent media types tend not to dress flamboyantly. Or perhaps Lauer is just an unusually stylish member of his profession. Maybe he will even help lead the way in getting hats more and more into popular society?

I certainly hope that this means fashion is on the up and up. I too notices Roker wearing a brown fed just the other day.

Matt Lauer's Hat

Matt Lauer wore a Borsalino Como purchased from Mitchell's of Westport Ct.
Just about allof Matt and Al Roker's wardrobe is from there.

Forget about his hat, how about his dress.
