11 Sun Hats You'll Want to Style Your Whole Summer Look Around

Every beach season it’s the exact same scenario. My new swimsuit has been ordered and arrived. (Check that off the list!) Same for a perfectly coordinated cover-up and brand-new sunnies. My favorite leather flip-flops have been patiently waiting inside my favorite raffia beach bag since last summer.

Everything appears to be sorted for a season of seaside glamour ... until, that is, I head out on my debut beach escape, realize I’ve totally forgotten a sun hat again, and end up paying twice-retail for a hat-of-desperation (like this “Flap Cap” beauty) from a shoreside vendor.

Not this year, though, thanks to the array of wide-brimmed hats ahead that have me solidly ahead of the game. I’ll be wearing them with my shore ensembles for sure — but each and every one will work equally well with a breezy summertime dress or a shorts-and-a-tee pairing.
