Summer hat

3 replies

Ragnarthe · 13/02/2019 19:11

Hi style and beauty gurus, advice would be appreciated!
I burn really easily in the sun and due to hormone problems my hair has thinned badly so I really need some good hats for summer.
Do you think it would be ridiculous to wear a Princess Margaret style turban on the beach in Italy? Obvs with glamorous sunglasses, swimsuit and sarong etc. If not, can anyone recommend where I can buy a really nice one?
Also can anyone recommend where I can buy good quality hats for more active stuff like hiking? I have short hair and want them to stay on when I am walking a long way. Or any other kind of headcovering that won't make me look horrible.
Thank you for reading

I can’t help you find one but I think a glamorous turban as described sounds rather wonderful.

For hiking I think a cap is the answer. Fit matters more than brand, so you actually need to go try some on and go from there.

I think turbans are 'in' so go for it.

I saw this one in the sale yesterday but still not cheap!

A less expensive option would be to use a silk hair wrap from Silke as daywear.

I have The Isla from Silke. It was £50 and definitely looks very glam.

I'm less help with hats for hiking, sorry!

Thank you for your replies! Yay turbans!
Those silke ones are amazing!
Hiking is a real problem, I'm going to be in Austria in the mountains. It gets really hot and being higher up the sun is really strong.
Thank you again, you have given me confidence to go for it Grin
