Summer Fedora

Summer fedora and wide-brimmed hats spotted at Acne, Canali and Jogn Varvatos are great for wearing both to the office and the beach. Opt for wide-brimmed hats when going on vacation and use a light summer fedora to top off your offce suit.
Paperboy Cap

A paperboy cap is a great alternative to a brimmed hat if you want a more casual look. Designers offer to wear it with a light neck scarf in one tone with the cap or blazer. Speaking of scarves they can be used in summer instead of ties as they finish off the outfits but also look more laid back. They are easy to tie and wear with anything from a suit to everyday clothes.
