Can't cope with blazing south london sun. Need some kind of hat

[DukesOfTripHazard]

Just this year I seem not to be able to cope with the sun, presumably on my bonce. So I'm walking around town (alright to school) in cropped jeans and flip flops or birkies and a wrap dress or summat. What, pray, can I stuff atop my head that might make me feel both good and better?

PLEASE NOT one of those mum hats

mum hat. makes wearer look like chess club member

with a wrap dress NO Hat will look right.
they are for casual wear.

these are supposed to be in

this owuld look nice with jeans etc

or htis.. doors to manual

Oh shit no. That's exactly what I'm trying to avoid. 'broderie beanie' makes me feel a bit chuggy up. To be fair, jeans a lot more prevalent. Beanie shape not terrible idea though. Is there any hat/skirt combo that would look alright.

The purported chess one would i feel be more suited to liver spotted OAP playing bowls in pale blue slacks.

The raffia sun visor is surely shome joke?

Only effective thing is learge wide brimmer number.

the oh shit is levelled at the beanie. I love the trilby!

what's wrong with a big floppy sunhat??

no poiint being utterly uncomfortable just because some other people don't thjink hats go with dresses

No to wide brims. That could so easily slip over into 'bowl player on holiday'. I'm not very good at sophisticated so can't try and go stepford route turban whatnot.

NO to any fabric hat

they always remind me of drippy mums at playgroup

but forlorn, the trilby is linen. Are you withdrawing it?

no i mean floraly chintzy
i still keep that one IN IN IN

Good because I'm going to try it ON ON ON.

I work at home and felt chipper until time to collect from after school club. Got about 5 minutes up the road and felt faint with the heat. Went home to get car on pretext of thinking I might have left a window open.

i KNOW you dont I.
i feel a tinge of knowingness

dukey
do tou think you might be perimenopausal

If you are saerious about keeping sun off, you need a hat from people who understasnd serious sun
i got one for my dh but he won't wear it in the hot places he worsk in as scared of being mistaken for an American and being picked off my Islamic militant.

yes
my h has one of those for rugby specatating
i suit hats. rarely wear em.

this is my fave

forlorn, would that info a) give you a clue to knowing me, or b) is sudden onset sun-wimpery a perimen symptom?

probably am btw.

now you ahev all gone
use and dump us.
sheesh

lol
no just you overheating
you are a name changer though?

Hmmm. Last one looks quite warm. Maybe the acrylic hair is removable? I could velcro it back on in more clement weather.

Do they have it a less lividly boiling looking tartan?
