The Hat is an Essential

On the weekends, I tend to leave my scenery and join my boyfriend in his beach side home! I love hearing the waves and just having an amazing view. I love that during this time I can see the people heading to the beach with their chairs, coolers, etc but rarely do I see people wearing their hats! I love the large hats which are definitely dramatic but it ensures that you're protected from the sun. With all the thought that we put into our swimwear, hats should be included not only as a fashionable accessory but as a means to protect our skin. During Friday's Mercedes Benz Swim Miami Fashion Week Show, Tommy Bahama sent many looks down the runway and I love this bandeau bikini worn by this model. The look is completed with this striped hat which will look amazing with so many items that you'll wear at the beach this summer!
