Bucket hats for women have a job to do, they need to…
- keep the sun out

First of all, I like bucket hats that have a pliable brim to them, in other words, I brim that you can mess around with. Second of all, trusting that my bucket hat is quality made for years of wear is key. Third, I like it to be washable! Finally, I like my bucket hat to send a message of confidence.
Let’s find out the six ways to wear your bucket hat!
- Flip One Side Up
Let’s start with flipping your brim up on one side. This gives a confident a sassy style for women when you style your summer bucket hat. The brim can be interchangeable whichever way you need to block the sun (or your spouse!).

2. All Sides Down
Next, how about wearing your cute bucket hat with all the sides flipped downward. This keeps your eyes protected from the sun and let’s face it – you can go a little incognito while reading your favorite book at the park.

3. Both Sides Flipped Up
Okay, so this is a personal favorite of how to wear a bucket hat. Due to the pliable brim of this fabulous garden bucket hat you can go rogue with the brim! Flip both sides up and create a little mini cowboy hat, like I said – a personal fav. To get this look simple flip up all sides and grab the front and back and slowly work into the downward position.

4. All Sides Up Please
Let’s continue! The nice pliable brim allows your bucket hat to work its magic in all different directions. Another way to style your bucket hat is curving up all the sides. This way you can see the reversible side of your hat! (Did I mention these bucket hats are reversible? Yes, they are!)

5. The Classic Look
This next style is what I consider the classic bucket hat style. Simply wearing the front brim flipped up to give it a “rain hat” look. Cute and very fun!

6. Back Side Flip
The final style approach was discovered when I needed to wear my long hair in a low ponytail and it worked great! Easily can be worn with the back side flipped upward – so doable and gives such a unique look.
