Hello May! It’s the perfect month to wear one of my favorite straw hats! Read on to get details on some fabulous straw hats as low as $22!
Can you believe we’re almost halfway through the year? Crazy, right? The next few weeks over here at the Wagner’s are going to be CHAOTIC. We decided to purchase a new home with our move in date set for the middle of May. I am trying to channel Marie Kondo and get this house together so moving will be that much easier. I have sold, donated and thrown out SO MUCH STUFF. Over last two weeks, I have been the sickest I think I’ve ever been with the worst cold; which then turned into a ruptured eardrum. No…I did NOT shove a q-tip in too far. It’s been “fun” trying to get stuff done when I feel like crapola. Did I mention my ballet schools performances are at the end of the month too? Yeah……I swear chaos finds me. I have been so bad about writing on the blog and I’m hopeful once Summer hits, I will have more time to designate to writing again. However, today, I carved out a little bit of time to bring you my favorite straw hats for the season.
I will admit I am somewhat of a straw hat-oholic. This is one accessory I often use with most of my daily looks during the Spring and Summer. Not only do I wear them to protect my face from the sun outdoors, but they are just the right touch to complete any warmer weather look. Today on CCG, I wanted to share some of my favorite straw hats that either I own or have on my wish list! You may notice a couple here that I have worn year after year. They are still available!

I just binge watched Renovation Aloha and now I NEED another trip to Hawaii. It doesn’t look like it’s in the cards for us this year with Emma going to Boston for singing (we are tagging along for the last week). Buuuutttt, if we were to go……Which is your favorite and why? Big Island or Kauai? We’ve already been to Oahu and Maui and I love each of them for different reasons. PS, I painted all my doors in the house blue on a whim and I think I love them 💙 ...

This hat is darling on you. Oh my goodness that’s crazy how fast time is flying. Congrats on the new home! I will have to buy some of these hats because we’re thinking of a beach trip soon/it’s so hot here lately. They’re the perfect touch to an outfit.

Kathrine| 13th May 19
I’m so in love with straw hats and bags, and I definitely need a straw hat this summer! Also, you look gorgeous!
Ronald Gagnon | 4th Jun 19
I think it is more the woman that makes the hat, rather than the Hat that makes the Woman 🙂
Kimberly Harrison | 4th Jun 19
Love the summer style
Kara Marks | 4th Jun 19

I love wearing hats all year especially in the summer. I am obsessing over these monogrammed hats from https://shopilovejewelry.com/collections/hats. You pair your hats with the best outfits!
Celeste HERRIN | 4th Jun 19
🎁 I love the straw hats! I sure wish I had a hat head, but hats just do not look good on me. You have some of the sweetest dresses I have ever seen. They are all so pretty and summery!
Young M | 4th Jun 19
your outfit in this post is too cute! I’ve never really worn straw hats before, but it really pulls your outfit together. 🙂 🎁
Rosie | 4th Jun 19
I love straw hats. I have a fav straw hat that I made a dress to wear with it, and have the fabric band, the straw hat really makes an outfit. These are cute selections, it makes me realize you need more than one!!! It looks nice on you, too.
Sandra Watts | 4th Jun 19
Some of these hats are so cute. I never wear a hat but I might have to give it a try.
Mindi Eden | 4th Jun 19
Fantastic outfit- I really like the hat you are wearing in the pics- makes me reconsider a straw hat! 🎁🎁
Dana Rodriguez | 4th Jun 19
That is a great list of hats. They really don’t look good on me I don’t think but I really like the one on the top right. Super cute!
Babette | 4th Jun 19
Love the hats! However, I live in South Florida and a hat would just make me hotter and not in a good way!! 😉😉😉😉 you look beautiful though!! 🎁🎁
laurie damrose | 5th Jun 19
THe whole outfit is beautiful!
Whitney Lai| 12th Jun 19
I love that you shared such a variety of hats 🎩 in your posts. I personally cannot wear a large or really wide hat because i’m fairly short statured and I already know that those types of hats would make me look more stumpy and actually shorter than I already am. You look absolutely beautiful in your dress and hat! Definitely a practical share and I was really pleased!!
Gwen M| 12th Jun 19
I’m one of those people so looney about hats i wear them all year round! I love the Nordstrom floppy red one and am adding it to my list.
Love your outfit BTW
