Not gonna lie, I love a hat – it’s one of those accessories that can really shift your outfit and style to the next level (or perhaps bring it down a notch). Personally, I love a classic baseball hat as my casual, lazy, hide-my-hair-regrowth weekend vibe, and there’s the ever so stylish Panama, which I absolutely adore! But at the moment, we have a bit of a game-changer in headwear trends: the trusty bucket hat!

Although they’re usually thought of only as part of Aussie summer school uniforms or as grandad’s well-worn fishing hat, this underdog is having its moment – and it all started with Rihanna. The fashion icon wore a chic sea-foam green version of Prada's nylon bucket hat in New York this summer, making it look super chic with a pair of jeans and graphic top.

Then I saw Justin Bieber sporting a hot-pink Stüssy bucket hat, and I’ve seriously never wanted one more! Ever since, we’ve seen celebrities like Billie Eilish, Brad Pitt, and Gigi Hadid all transforming the bucket hat into a must-have stylish accessory.

Bucket hats come in a variety of colors, fabrics, and of course now with bling. There aren't too many rules with this one, our favorite celebrities have worn it with just about everything!
