Why leave the books at home in the bookcase when they can serve as stylish and practical hats, protecting you from the sun and rain while giving you the chance to impress people?

Imagine all your friends saying, "She must be smart. She's wearing a Shakespeare hat."

(I wonder if I could learn a foreign language through osmosis by wearing a French dictionary on my head.)

These models were showing off the bookish look during India Fashion Week, and there's no doubt it will be the rage by the spring of next year, so start checking your bookshelves for something sharp right now.

And, remember. It's a fashion faux pas to wear a paperback after Labor Day. Fall and winter are for hardcovers.
