These Are Officially The 4 Must-Have Hats For The Season

We love fashion. But we love it even more when it meets function. This summer, hats are having a big moment. Yay for protection from the sun and the fashion police. These are the hats you’ll be seeing all over Instagram – and in real life when the sun’s out.

Baseball Cap

Bet you didn’t think your Bad Hair Day bestie would make the list. Already a go-to, the baseball cap is essential all year round. Wear it the OG way, or serve the look with a side of sassy one-liners.
