Closet Essentials: The Floppy Hat

 I'm on vacation mode... gimme my hat! (and my fruity drink!)

Speckled Floppy Hat $12.80; Forever 21

The floppy hat trend is on full blast this season - and I find that it's one of the best ways to deal with the heat. I don't rock hats regularly, but I've found myself gravitating towards a cute floppy hat as my own personal cooling system. It's not just for resort wear any more - I'm seeing these retro, wide-brimmed 70's style hats being work as a non-poolside accessory everywhere.

Stripe Floppy $12.99; Tilly's

These hats can be worn with just about anything but I imagine mine being paired with a long floral maxi or a patterned tunic. My preference is for a solid color floppy or minimal design but I've seen colorful and patterned floppy's worn on point as well.

Here are some of my top picks:

Aqua Floppy Hat with Sash $40; Bloomingdale's

Barley Floppy Hat; Fat Face

Juicy Couture Stripe Floppy Paper Straw Hat $78; Nordstrom

Brixton Alana Hat $68; Urban Outfitters 

 

 

(

their "Pins & Needles Basic Straw Floppy Hat is a fave of mine too!)

 ASOS  and the Gap have a great selection too..


 Is a floppy hat in your summer rotation?What would you wear it with?
