Finding a Hat at Aurum Collections for your Face Shape


Hats are year-round fashion trend in Miami and Aurum Collections has hats that will fit your style. Everybody can look good in hats as long as you pick the right hat for your face shape.

Oval Face Shape
Women with an oval face shape can wear a variety of styles. Fedoras, wide-brimmed hats, berets and cloches will all look fabulous. Avoid wearing hats with crowns that are narrower than the cheekbones.

Heart Face Shape
Sun hats, fedoras and just about any other type of hat look great on women with heart-shaped faces.

Round Face Shape
Hats with a wide brim, such as sun hats and fedoras, reduce the circular look of a round face shape. Avoid hats with low crowns and small brims.

Oblong Face Shape
Hats with a medium or low crown can help hide the forehead of women with an oblong face shape. Wide-brimmed and square-shaped hats should be avoided as they tend to elongate a face.

Square Face Shape
Soften the pronounced angles of a square face shape with a wide-brimmed hat. Hats with curves will look best, but avoid square-shaped hats.

When shopping for a hat or jewelry in Miami, make Aurum Collections your source for one-of-a-kind or small batch luxury accessories

Trends: Color Blocking for Fall Miami Fashion


When the color-blocking hit the runways, Miami fashionistas were quick to embrace this style. Color blocking is a geometric fashion trend achieved by mixing and matching different blocks of color. Aurum Collections jewelry store in Miami has a variety of jewelry, bags and other fashion accessories so you try out this trend and strut your stuff in style.

Here are some quick tips to get the look:
  • People’s eyes will naturally go to the areas on your body with bright colors. Try pairing bold colors with neutral colors, such as black, white and beige. Neutral shades are great for minimizing the areas you want to downplay.
  • Choose colors that match your skin tone. Some bold colors look great on the hanger but might not look good with your skin tone. For example, lime green looks amazing on olive skin, but can be an overwhelming color for someone with pale skin and hair.
  • Use a color wheel to determine which colors coordinate with other colors.
  • Use accessories to color block. A bright sundress, which is perfect for Miami, can be paired with shoes and a purse in complementary colors.
  • Bold jewelry pieces, such as necklaces and bracelets, are must-haves for color blocking. Aurum Collections is known for it’s statement making jewelry, so stop by and check out the jewelry collections.
