“if you want to get ahead, get a hat ”
That was the (very good) advertising slogan of hatters Dunn & Co
What about sunhats?
With the British summer becoming increasingly mediterranean these are really a necessity rather than a sartorial statement.
I’ve a rather frayed Panama bought many years ago from Snooks of Bridport which I wear when gardening or out walking when the sun is beating down. Surprisingly effective at keeping you cool and for preventing sunburn.
Also helps prevent cataracts for those like me who find that sunglasses detract from enjoyment of the big, bright, beautiful natural world.
