Stylish sun hats that protect you from UV damage

With summer all-year round in Singapore, adequate sun protection is necessary especially since sun damage is the leading cause of skin damage and ageing. Besides applying sunscreen and wearing sunglasses, hats are another way to get shade from the damaging sun.

Sun hats are an easy way to incorporate sun protection in a stylish manner. Made from straw, these hats are breathable, which means that they are comfortable to wear no matter how hot and humid the weather can get.

A sun hat with a wider brim will provide more shade, plus that floppy hat look is just so summery and debonair. Of course, choose a hat size that suits your needs. A smaller hat would be easier to bring around but would also provide less shade. Similarly, foldable sun hats are an option now, which you can fold and store into your handbag while on the go.

Here are eight sun hat picks of varying sizes and designs to add into your wardrobe today.
