Hats are hard. The options are either ironic (Von Dutch) absurd (any fedora) or serving “mom on a cruise who desperately wants to dock so she can buy some local jewelry.” But when I am outdoors I have to cover the face or I will turn millennial pink. Gemsun makes hats that are the perfect marriage between freaky lady of leisure and practical woman preserving her youth.
I also love my Samantha Pleet collapsible striped beach hat for those days when I want to create at least a foot between me and anyone else.
