Your Essential Guide to Summer Hats

Discover the must-have hats for sunny days, from statement pieces to classic straw styles. Stay chic and sun-safe with these top picks.

Your Essential Guide to Summer Hats

Hats often don't get the credit they deserve. They're a fantastic accessory, shield your eyes from the sun, and prevent your forehead from tanning a different shade than the rest of your face. What's not to adore? Summer is the ideal season to bring out your most stylish straw hats. I usually stick to one favorite style each summer, but this year I've been switching between several. So, I've rounded up some of my current top hat picks to share with you! Scroll down to see my summer hat selection:

The Statement Hat

Isn't this hat amazing? It may not be the most practical option, but it looks incredibly stylish! I actually borrowed it from Hannah (you might have spotted it in her recent post). It looks fantastic when worn and is basically designed for the beach… Amalfi Coast, anyone?

The Visor

When you think of visors, you probably picture a tourist with a map and dad sneakers… right? Well, that's outdated! I found this visor and I'm completely obsessed. It's like a wide-brim hat and a visor had a super chic offspring. This one is especially great for travel because you don't have to stress about it getting crushed!

The Classic

You can never go wrong with a timeless flat-top straw hat. This one is super sleek and minimal. If it seems too plain, I'd tie a pretty printed scarf around it or even a sparkly brooch if you're feeling fancy. If you look in the mirror this summer and feel something is missing—I guarantee it's probably a hat! ALSO—I often get questions about hat sizing. I have a fairly big head, so I usually go with a size medium!

Which hat is your favorite? Let me know in the comments below! Have a wonderful day, everyone!
