Possessing the ability to be both a fashionable and practical accessory, a good hat is an essential part of any summer wardrobe. And while a floppy straw hat may be perfect for shading your face at the beach, it can be a little out of place running errands around town. Look to its siblings, the fedora and panama hats—or even its distant cousin, the baseball cap—for an outfit topper that will have you looking cool, despite the hot temps. From a versatile classic like J.Crew's panama to ASOS's unabashedly bronzed leather baseball cap, browse 12 of our favorite options above.—Cleo Zancope
