Now that summer’s here, my weekend uniform really only entails three items: a dress, flip-flops, and—most importantly—a hat.
For one, who wants to spend time doing their hair on a summer Saturday? But even better, a hat makes any outfit look instantly and effortlessly cool.
So, when people tell me that they’re not sure they can pull hats off, or when and where they could wear them, I say: Absolutely you can, and anywhere and everywhere. Get some inspiration from the fabulous style bloggers below, then check out the cutest hats of the season.
The Flat-Brimmed Fedora
The fedora is a classic. Throw it on with shorts and a tank for a day of shopping, or with a summer dress for brunch or a bridal shower. If it’s white or another neutral color, you can wear it with literally anything in your closet.

The Floppy Hat
Big, floppy, sun-blocking hats are fabulous for a pool day, but they work just as well when you’re out and about. Try one in a fun color or stripes for lunch date with your girlfriends.

The Straw Hat
Nothing feels like the loungey days of summer quite like a straw hat. Cowboy, fedora, or flat-brimmed, you can wear it shopping, to the beach, or for a casual dinner—just keep the rest of your outfit sleek and simple.
