How to Get More Wears Out of Your Favorite Beach Hat

Every summer you pull out your beach hats (or snag a few more) only to get a few wears out of them each season. Why not start incorporating the classic accessory into more of your looks when you are on the go? This Canadian style blogger has us up for the challenge.

We're taking a page out of Elif Filyos of the blog The Fashion Medley's style book, and we're extending the life of the classic accessory by using it to top off more of our everyday summer outfits. In this case, Filyos wears her wide-brimmed version with a minimal yet boho neutral look—a white maxi shirt dress layered over linen gaucho pants, complete with a pair of camel babouche slippers. The hat is an incredibly chic touch that makes the outfit feel even airier than before.
