From flopping-lampshade styles to the nonchalant baseball cap – these are the on-trend styles to accessorise your beach-day or weekend-away.
1. Cool crochet
It feels like crochet makes a comeback every year. Ideal for layering, crochet makes a statement beyond your clothes, and having been big for bags last year – 2024 is all about the crochet cap.

2. Statement straw
Raffia and floppy hats have become the headgear of the summer, making any look go from English garden to Saint-Tropez style. Unfortunately, not all of these types of hats are made for our cramped carry-ons.

Free People Shoreline Bucket Hat, £32
4. Reliable baseball
The true style that will always work is undoubtedly the baseball cap. Possibly the least glamorous of the styles – the baseball cap has a cool insouciance to it. When styled right, it can give nautical chic vibes, or look like you’re a humble millionaire trying to discreetly run errands.
