Summer Sunhat Perfect for Sun Protection

Where would I be without a sunhat in summer? Probably burnt to a crisp and looking like a lobster. While I don’t typically go shopping with a large sunhat on, it’s not uncommon for me to wear them most every where else. (And I won’t lie, especially for photoshoots). The most appropriate and obviously best place to wear a sunhat is the pool and the beach. It so happens that when you are as pale as me, you burn easily. Even when I re-apply sunscreen I typically end up with the start of a burn. Maybe I just suck as sunscreen (probably) but a sunhat at least makes sure I have more protection in summer. Especially when you just don’t feel like reapplying every 2 hours. (I know it’s bad, and I always regret it, but it always happens that way).Disclosure: Some of the links in this post are affiliate links, meaning at no additional cost to you I may make a commission if you click through and purchase.
