Portable Shade

Hunting & Gathering

Hitting the beach in the Sarasota summertime, sunscreen won’t always cut it when it comes to protecting sensitive skin—and few look stylish rocking the Zinc Nose look—but with the right hat from Treat Boutique, enjoy the sunshine with none of the burn. Floppy and fun, with cheeky and beachy catchphrases like “bon voyage” and “talk to the sand” embroidered on the brim, these hats from C.C. Exclusive offer ample protection for the face and neck while being easily dressed up for a noontime stroll through St. Armands or a afternoon reading session on the beach. Made from 100 percent paper but looking like straw, they may not be great for fighting brushfires, but they’ll beat the heat with the best of them on July 4th.
