Bucket hats are back! Grab yourself a high-street one NOW

Fed up of fedoras? So sick of snap backs? Bored of beanies?Us too. If only there was a hat out there that was both stylish and practical. A hat allowed us to enjoy the sun and still look cool. Well fret no more; the bucket hat is here to solve all your problems!

Sun in your eyes AND on the back of your neck? BUCKET HAT.

Top of your head burning? BUCKET HAT.

Want to look like Rihanna but haven’t got a large OTT fur yellow gown in your wardrobe? BUCKET HAT.

The coolest hat of the nineties is back with a vengeance. Originally worn by hip-hop artists such as LL Cool J and Lauryn Hill back in the day, today the bucket is being pioneered by none other than BadGalRiRi.

Rihanna is known for her daring fashion risks and we love her for it. She has chosen the bucket hat as her hat of choice at the moment. And why wouldn’t she? Especially when her long time best friend Melissa Forde has just released her own line of bucket hats (nothing like a bit of endorsement between friends, eh?).

All endorsement aside, Rihanna makes the wide-brimmed limp hat the must have accessory of the summer. Move over daisy headbands and bindi jewels, the bucket hat is going to be the uniform head piece of festivals around the world.

Don’t believe us? Its not just Rihanna who has been supporting this 90s trend comeback, Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber and of course Pharrell, have all stepping out in their own bucket hats too.

Here's how to work it like Ri-Ri
