You can’t go back in time but your bling can prevent the sun from aging you faster

Hats are the best sunscreen. They don’t irritate your skin, get in your eyes, or wash off. Here are my favorite hats to protect from sun while boosting your style.

This Easy & Affordable Bucket

Stock up on this packable, washable, crushable bucket sun protection hat because it’s the one you will wear the most. The short brim makes it easy to wear in any kind of weather or mood, and you can jam one into your bag on days when you don’t expect to be outside much — and that suddenly changes.

There are so many colors, too.

This Floppy Straw Hat Is Made From Paper

When it’s hot and you don’t want to wear anything that will make you sweat more, this floppy straw sun hat is the one. Wear it gardening and it will keep the sun off your face. Wear it to the beach and it will bring all the vacation vibes. Maybe don’t wear it in the rain since it is made from paper straw. But that stuff breathes and keeps you cool. This is one of my absolute favorites. It comes in nine colors and you might want all of them.

For Sun Blocking & Hair-Friendly Outdoor Activities

When you are hiking, spending the day on the beach, or otherwise overexposed to the sun, this hair-friendly sun protection hat will be your best friend. The wide brim in the front keeps the sun off your face. The hair-friendly opening in the back doesn’t make you choose between having your hair up or wearing a hat. And the fabric neck coverage is awesome.

This Stylish & Versatile Bucket

This cute little number can go from covering your head, face, neck, and shoulders to a visor with a bit of a switcheroo. The scarf-like neck coverage wraps around the brim, creating a colorful touch. The head protection zips off, and it becomes minimal and updo-friendly. Or deploy everything it has, all at once, to protect you from the blazing rays. It even snaps in the front to cover your chest. It comes in four colors.

Bring Some Style To Brunch

Planning to dine outdoors? Wear this cute, wide-brim mesh sun protection hat so you don’t squint and fry your skin while you sip mimosas. The floral lining boosts your outfit. The mesh back keeps you cool. And the wide, bendable brim keeps the sun off with lots of style. It comes in six colors.

A Large Brim Hat Made From Ribbons

With a five-inch brim, these cute and stylish cotton ribbon hats to protect from the sun will shade your face and neck while making you look super stylish. It comes in five colors and rolls up so you can pack it or stash it in your bag. It comes in four colors.

A Small & Wearable Cloche

The clever cutaway back on this stylish, structured cloche hat makes it both wearable and stylish. It won’t crash into your collar or the car seat. Yet the brim in the front makes this an effective sun protection hat. And the overall effect is adorable and retro. That leather band will come in handy if you want to stick a flower or your press card in there.

This Popular Packable Breton

Wallaroo hats to protect from sun are wildly popular for their stylish protection and high quality. This adorable Breton is one of their cutest. It has a wide brim for sun protection and a UPF rating of 50+ to keep your skin safe. It comes in four colors.
