Summer hats for your consideration

The finest form of sun protection there is...

We know hats can sometimes seem a bit de trop for the less flamboyant among us, however – alongside SPF – a decent hat will shield your precious face from UV radiation (which is as evil as it sounds) like nothing else. You could certainly also just flee to an underground bunker daily at dawn, but a complete dearth of sunlight might make you susceptible to rickets and therefore that’s not a method of sun protection we condone. Besides, after days upon days spent in lockdown, who doesn’t want an excuse to wear a veritably outdoor accessory?
