use your head






nasty gal $43.48



 Its all about using your head this season to aid in beating the   heat and the sun of the hot summer weather and pool side parties.

Although some of you think that hats should be a thing of the past, they can prove to be your best friend this summer if you give them a chance. They will save you from unforeseen sunburn, heat stroke, and possible sun poisoning.

When choosing your summer hat... or hats, you want to consider your face shape, and of course your personality! You never want to undermine who you are as an individual or cover up that sunny disposition.

Big brimmed and floppy are always a stylish and flirty way to show your feminine side while remaining classy, elegant and most important protected. These chic styles have been around for many years, and I personally predict them to be around for many more. They are perfect for days at the beach, walking the strip, or even early dinner dates. This super cute striped big brim is from ASOS.com and can be bought at $47.64. Although that is on the higher end of the market, you can find some really beautiful ones at your local Winners for approximately half the price.

If it is something a little smaller you are looking for, a straw fedora might be the hat for you. These hats  come is many different styles, colours and textures. While it may not cover your  full face, it is still protecting you from the heat, and is stylish enough to bring you from day to night. This super cute straw floral print fedora is from Aldo and can be found at $25.00.

If you are even more daring and want to play a little wild you could always opt for a head scarf or turban style head cover. Just like a hat the scarf will cover your head protecting you from direct sun and added heat. These scarves come in so many cute colours, patters, and textiles as well. I found the super cute turban style below on Etsy for $11.14.

 You could also lean more towards a good 'ol baseball cap, which will keep you feeling sporty and still protect you just the same. I have a hand full of these ready by the door, as they are usually my quick go-to all summer long.

All of the above are not only ways to stay safe this summer, but also a sure fire way to stay cute, fashionable, and chic all summer long. Please take some time to cover up and protect this summer.

Before the summer comes into full swing, what is going to be your go to hat of the season?
