Whether you’re hitting the beach or exploring urban environments, a lifeguard straw hat adds just the right touch of relaxed style. Here are some styling tips:

Summer Rambler – Embrace summertime by pairing your lifeguard hat with a lightweight, short-sleeved floral or Hawaiian button-down. Slip into some comfortable shorts or rolled-up chinos and top off the look with flip flops or classic canvas sneakers.

Relaxed Explorer – Channel your inner outdoorsman by pairing a men’s lifeguard hat with a utility shirt in an earth tone, or dress it up with a chambray button-down. Slide into some cargo shorts or straight-leg jeans and cap off the look with a pair of sturdy leather sandals or hiking boots.

Casual Cool – Keep it simple and stylish by pairing a straw hat with a fitted tee or casual polo shirt. Match it with a pair of slim-fit chinos or denim jeans and your go-to sneakers or boat shoes. This laid-back outfit is perfect for a weekend brunch or a casual hangout with friends.

Get comfortable, effortless style with Brixton’s women’s lifeguard hats. Here are some styling tips:

Beach Breezy – Pair a lifeguard straw hat with a flowy, lightweight maxi dress in a vibrant print or a comfy cotton sundress. Slide into some comfortable sandals, grab your beach tote, and get ready for a day of fun in the sun.

Boho Chic – Embrace your inner bohemian by pairing a lifeguard hat with a loose-fitting floral blouse and flowy maxi skirt. Complete the ensemble with some suede ankle boots or strappy sandals, and layer on a few boho-inspired accessories like stacked bracelets or a long pendant necklace.

Country Charm – For a laid-back countryside vibe, pair your women’s lifeguard hat with a plaid button-down shirt and some well-worn jeans. Add a pair of chunky ankle boots and a rustic leather handbag—and don’t forget to roll up your sleeves.
