Style Challenge: How to Wear a Visor
Not quite a hat---though hardly a headband---the visor has always been a fave of ours. Pucci is showing a darling print visor that ties in back and Burberry offers a checked one at Saks.com that screams, "My backhand will reduce you to a pile of pudding!" 
With temperatures rocketing to triple digits lately, The Stylephile would like to encourage readers to stay cool and avoid sun damage. Impossible, you whine. Not with a visor, we retort. The best way to wear a visor, by the way, is to pair it with a high ponytail. A low ponytail looks dowdy; hair down defeats the purpose of wearing the visor in the first place. (The band in back should always be beneath the ponytail -- it's like a push-up bra for your hair and will hold the updo in place.) Lastly, the way not to wear a visor is to advertise a rental car company on the brim, as Tatum O'Neal once did back in 1980.
