We’ve reached that time of year when all I want to do is be outside — going for walks, sitting in the backyard, tending to my garden, dining on patios, watching country concerts, or simply laying in the sun. And my newest favorite accessory for all of it is the Belle Straw Cowboy Hat from American Hat Makers.
Styled here on our recent trip to California, it’s quickly become my go-to accessory of the season. The lightweight straw makes it perfect for warmer weather, and I love that it’s adjustable for the ideal fit. The brim is also bendable, which makes it easy to pack and fun to shape depending on the look I’m going for.

While I wouldn’t exactly call myself a country girl (hello, suburbs!), there’s something about summer that makes me want the windows rolled down and country music blasting through the speakers. For an evening spent listening to good music in the grass, I’d style the Belle Straw Cowboy Hat with wide-leg jeans, a breezy linen tee, and western-inspired ankle booties.
I’m no Martha Stewart, but I do enjoy dabbling in the garden every spring and summer. Since we don’t get much shade in our backyard during the day, the Belle Straw Cowboy Hat has become a necessity in the heat. And just because I’m in the privacy of my own backyard doesn’t mean I can’t look cute while trimming flowers or tending to the hose. For leisurely yard work, I’d keep the rest of the outfit simple with a flowy linen button-down and breezy shorts.
Last but not least, I’ll never say no to a lounge chair, a vibe-y playlist, and a UV index of 8. The Belle Straw Cowboy Hat is the perfect companion for days spent at the lake, ocean, or lounging poolside. I’ll always reach for an easy pull-on linen pant or breezy shorts to throw on over my bikini, paired with a classic pair of flip-flops you’ll wear summer after summer.
