Fair-Weather Friends

In the heat of summer, moms are so busy shielding their little ones from sunburn that they may forget to guard their own skin! Check out our top picks of the trendiest hats out there so you can protect yourself from sun damage–and look good doing it.

This super-relaxed Weekend Fedora by HAT ATTACK is a great choice for moms who like to chill out. Reminiscent of Huck Finn (in the chicest way possible), moms can feed their inner beach bum and protect their skin with this rustic take on a classic, borrowed-from-the-boys style. The flawlessly distressed straw hat can be found at the incredibly refined, beach-y boutique Calypso.

For your mini-me:

You can never have too much protection, especially on the littler members of the family. This Baby Sun Hat by Rikshaw Design is a great option for bohemian babies who appreciate some handmade quality in their seasonal accessories. The charming pink fish design is our pick, but the hat comes in two other hand-printed patterns that are entirely lovely.
