In the shade

In the past week I've purchased 2 quite large straw hats for myself, and both are leaving me wanting more. I love large floppy hats for days lounging at the beach, but I'd also like something more practical for walking for coffee or having lunch outside.
Here are some other options I'm thinking about.

    I love the first one, that looks really cute. Straw hats are really cheap here, I have a collection of straw hats already. =)

    These hats are all adorable. I keep saying I'm going to buy one and still haven't found the perfect one yet. I love the last hat with the colorful edge.

    I sooo wish I could pull of these hats but sadly, hats look hideous on me! Baseball caps, yes, those are fine. But cute straw beach hats, nope, can't pull 'em off :-(

    I actually just bought a black floppy hat this past weekend. I totally agree with you about needing a more casual option. I really love that last hat!

    I'm so jealous that you can pull these off... I love this look but unfortunately, hats really do look ridiculous on me!

    I am so partial to floppy hats, I think they are so glam and I love the first one.
