Today is Straw Hat Day!


Straw Hat Day is the unofficial start of summer and the official start of straw hat season - if you were wondering about when you could begin wearing yours! The exact date of Straw Hat Day varies somewhat in the United States - the dates of April 24th and May 15th are often cited. In my family, it was always said that May 1st is the first proper day to don a straw hat (and white shoes) and Labor Day weekend in September is the last. I hope you enjoy viewing the straw hats below as well as wearing your straw hats throughout the coming four months!
